The scheduler maintains a history of the recent messages
in the scheduler that were queued, started or completed execution.
This information can be reviewed while debugging issues
if the scheduler is taking longer to process any message.
The new API will print the scheduler history on request.

The scheduler watchdog timer handler currently either prints error or
prints error and panics based on CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON.
Considering the panic through QDF_DEBUG_PANIC is configurable and is
disabled on relevant builds, we can just have one version of the
function and depend on QDF macro for panic and dependency on
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON is redundant
Change the default log levels from none to fatal for scheduler.

Due to a limitation in the memory leak detection logic when qdf_flex_mem
was written, qdf_flex_mem_release() was necessary to free any
dynamically allocated memory in the qdf_flex_mem_pool during certain
points in the WLAN driver lifecycle. This was done to avoid flagging any
dynamically allocated qdf_flex_mem_segments as false positive leaks
when the memory domains were changed and leak checking was performed.
With the introduction of qdf_talloc(), this workaround is no longer
required. Replace the calls to qdf_mem_malloc/free with qdf_talloc/free,
and remove qdf_flex_mem_release() altogether.

The scheduler can run out of buffers and we panic
whenever this happens. However in the older code
we wait until the failure count of getting scheduler
buffers reaches a defined limit, thus making buffers
available in due time and the panic was seen in rare cases,
where failure count was exceeding the defined limit.
With the qdf_flex_mem supprt added for scheduler, the
wait to panic, when the failure count was removed and
we panic when the first failure to get scheduler buffer
is reached. This change adds to wait until the failure
count reaches the limit and then panic.

Currently, the scheduler thread keeps a large, pre-allocated array of
messages for use in message posting. The vast majority of the time,
however, the scheduler thread has zero or one messages pending in the

After profiling many iterations of several driver operations, the
observed absolute maximum number of queue scheduler messages was 452
during soft AP startup. Typical maximums for this test case are less
than 100, occasionally getting as high as 250. The median for all of
the driver operations in general were in the range of 1-2. Given this
information, a round number around twice the worst case rate was
picked.
Reduce SCHEDULER_CORE_MAX_MESSAGES to 1000, down from 8000 for MCL.
This saves a significant amount of unused statically allocated memory.

A commonly used and robust life-cycle pattern consists of the following
4 steps:
1) create (allocate resources)
2) start (mark resources as safe for use)
3) stop (mark resources as unsafe for use)
4) destroy (deallocate resources)
This pattern effectively prevents access to uninitialized and freed
resources. While the dispatcher psoc life-cycle follows this pattern,
the global life-cycle is condensed into steps 1 and 4. Unsurprisingly,
this led to uninitialized and freed resource access problems, especially
in regards to the scheduler thread.
Split the scheduler init and deinit life-cycle functions into init,
enable, disable, and deinit. Create new global enable and disable
dispatcher functions, and call the new scheduler APIs as appropriate.
This brings the global dispatcher life-cycle in line with the existing
psoc life-cycle, and prevents many scheduler related resource access
issues.
