According to firmware engineers, the firmware has never required
these fields and the values have always been calculated, they were
just leftovers from a previous implementation.
Therefore remove the unnecessary calculation.

The current key offset assignment algorithm always uses the lowest
unused key offset, which will potentially lead to issues when the
firmware will change to take the key material for TX from the key
table rather than from the TX command.
In order to avoid those issues (and avoid forgetting about them)
change the key offset allocation algorithm now to avoid reusing key
offsets quickly.
The new algorithm always picks as the next offset the least recently
freed offset, i.e. the offset that has been unused for the longest
amount of time. This is implemented by having a generation counter
for each key offset that is incremented every time a key is deleted,
except for the one that's deleted, which is reset to zero. Thus the
highest counter is the key that's been unused longest.

Sometimes when setting an igtk key the station maybe NULL.
In the of case igtk the function will skip to the end, and
try to print sta->addr, if sta is Null - we will access a
Null pointer.
Avoid accessing a Null pointer when setting a igtk key &
the sta == NULL, and print a default MAC address instead.

In order to imeplement the extended VI session feature for Miracast, the FW
requires to detect the VI queue. The detection of the VI queue is done when
it is assigned to a STA with ADD_STA command, so by this time the FW expects
the queue to be already configured (mapped to VI AC and aggregation enabled).
Previously, the queue configuration was done after STA modificaton which
broke the extended VI session feature and resulted in higher latencies.
Fix this by calling iwl_mvm_enable_agg_txq before station modification.

There are transport that must buffer frames in the driver.
This means that we have frames that are not in the op_mode
and not visible to the firwmare. This causes issues when we
flush the queues: the op_mode flushes a queue, and the
firmware flushes all the frames that are *currently* on the
rings, but if the transport buffers frames, it can submit
these while we are flushing. This leads to a situation
where we still have frames on the queues after we flushed
them.
Preventing those buffered frame from getting into the
firmware is possible, but then, we have to run the Tx
response path on frames that didn't reach the firmware
which is not desirable.
The way I solve this here is to let these frames go to the
firmware, but make sure the firmware will not transmit them
(by setting the station as draining). The op_mode then needs
to wait until the transport itself is empty to be sure that
the queue is really empty.

Different queue can have different behavior. While it can be
unacceptable for a certain queue to be stuck for 2 seconds
(e.g. the command queue), it can happen that another queue
will stay stuck for even longer (a queue servicing a power
saving client in GO).
The op_mode can even make the timeout be a function of the
listen interval.

In the original driver, we decided to not implement WEP RX hardware
offload because of a quirk with the firmware API - it allows setting
global WEP keys that then get used for all virtual interfaces, which
is clearly wrong if more than one exists, and it allows setting per-
station keys but then separates multicast and unicast keys.
In order to implement WEP RX hardware offload, work around these
limitations by uploading each WEP key twice, once as multicast and
once as unicast, but point them both to the same key slot (offset)
and use the same key material so the slot overwrite on the second
upload doesn't actually change anything. Upon removal, also remove
the key twice so the station no longer references it.

The scheduler is a HW sub-block that directs the work of the Flow
Handler by issuing requests for frame transfers, specifying source
and destination. Its primary function is to allocate flows into the
TX FIFOs based upon a pre-determined mapping.
The driver has some responsibilities to the scheduler, namely
initialising and maintaining the hardware registers. This is
currently done by directly accessing them, which can cause races
with the firmware also accessing the registers.
To address this problem, change the driver to no longer directly
access the registers but go through the firmware for this if the
firmware has support for DQA and thus the new command.

This scenario may result in packet loss, since the transmission may start
