Better making the buffer parameter of the function constant so the

The function brcmf_inform_bss() validates the version received
from the device, before processing the individual bss entries.
This error condition is only applicable when the list contains
entries. A specific scan, ie. for a specific ssid, can result
in a scan completion without finding any bss entries. No need
to flag it as an error in the log when this happens.

This patch adds support for multiple TX queues inside mwifiex
driver. Four different queues according to WMM access categories
are defined for each virtual interface. When a packet is
received from netdev for transmission, tx pending count for
particular queue is incremented and if tx pending count has
reached upper water-mark, this queue is stopped instead of
stopping all queues. Similarly when a packet is successfully
transmitted from device, tx pending count is decremented per
queue and if pending count falls below lower water-mark, queue
operations are again resumed. This ensures that not all
tranmission is blocked if traffic with particular TOS value
suddenly increases.
Also wake all queues after association/IBSS_join/uAP_BSS_start
to enable traffic on all queues.

When the firmware is in SNIFFER mode, it leaves
the FCS at the end of frame. Not telling mac80211
means it won't add the right flag to the radiotap
header and that confuses wireshark.
Since mac80211 doesn't have a per-packet flag, set
the HW flag dynamically. This works as the monitor
vif can only be present in the driver by itself.
This fixes a regression introduced by my
commit 5789772641

During hardware restart, all interfaces are iterated even
though they haven't been re-added to the driver, document
this behaviour. The same also happens during resume, which
is even more confusing since all of the interfaces were
previously removed from the driver. Make this optional so
drivers relying on the current behaviour can still use it,
but to let drivers that don't want this behaviour disable
it.
Also convert all API users, keeping the old semantics
except in hwsim, where the new normal ones are desired.

No HCMD can be sent while RFKILL is asserted. If a SYNC
command is running while RFKILL is asserted the fw will
silently discard it. This means that the driver needs to
wake the process that sleeps on the CMD_SYNC.
Since the RFKILL interrupt is handled in the transport layer
and the code that sleeps in CMD_SYNC is also in the transport
layer, all this logic can be handled there.
This simplifies the work of the op_mode.
So the transport layer will now return -ERFKILL when a CMD
is sent and RFKILL is asserted. This will be the case even
when the CMD is SYNC. The transport layer will return
-ERFKILL straight away.

The ath9k xmit functions for AMPDUs can send frames as non-aggregate in case
only one frame is currently available. The client will then answer using a
normal Ack instead of a BlockAck. This acknowledgement has no TID stored and
therefore the hardware is not able to provide us the corresponding TID.
The TID set by the hardware in the tx status descriptor has to be seen as
undefined and not as a valid TID value for normal acknowledgements. Doing
otherwise results in a massive amount of retransmissions and stalls of
connections.
Users may experience low bandwidth and complete connection stalls in
environments with transfers using multiple TIDs.
This regression was introduced in b11b160def
("ath9k: validate the TID in the tx status information").
