This new helper reads extra frequency limits specified in DT and
disables unavailable chanels. This is useful for devices (like home
routers) with chipsets limited e.g. by board design.
In order to respect info read from DT we simply need to check for
IEEE80211_CHAN_DISABLED bit when constructing channel info.

The wowlan support is (partially) determined dynamic by checking the
device/firmware capabilities. So they can differ per device. So it
is not possible to use a static global. Instead use the global as a
template and use kmemdup(). When kmemdup() fails the template is used
unmodified.

Driver used to call brcmf_bus_detach only from one place and it already
contained a check for drvr not being NULL. We can get rid of this extra

There also isn't brcmf_bus_attach function which one could expect so it

brcmf_sdio_fromevntchan() was being called on the the data frame
rather than the software header, causing some frames to be
mischaracterized as on the event channel rather than the data channel.
This fixes a major performance regression (due to dropped packets). With
this patch the download speed jumped from 1Mbit/s back up to 40MBit/s due
to the sheer amount of packets being incorrectly processed.

BCM43455 is a more recent revision of the BCM4345. Some of the BCM43455
got a dedicated SDIO device ID which is currently not supported by
brcmfmac.
Adding the new sdio_device_id to brcmfmac is enough to get the BCM43455
supported because the chip itself is already supported (due to BCM4345
support in the driver).

During bands setup we disable all channels that firmware doesn't support
in the current regulatory setup. If we do this before wiphy_register
it will result in copying set flags (including IEEE80211_CHAN_DISABLED)
to the orig_flags which is supposed to be persistent. We don't want this
as regulatory change may result in enabling some channels. We shouldn't
mess with orig_flags then (by changing them or ignoring them) so it's
better to just take care of their proper values.
This patch cleanups code a bit (by taking orig_flags more seriously) and
allows further improvements like disabling really unavailable channels.
We will need that e.g. if some frequencies should be disabled for good
due to hardware setup (design).

During init we take care of regulatory stuff by disabling all
unavailable channels (see brcmf_construct_chaninfo) so this predisabling
them is not really required (and this patch won't change any behavior).
It will on the other hand allow more detailed runtime control over
channels which is the main reason for this change.

Our code was assigning number of channels to the index variable by
default. If firmware reported channel we didn't predict this would
result in using that initial index value and writing out of array. This
never happened so far (we got a complete list of supported channels) but
it means possible memory corruption so we should handle it anyway.
This patch simply detects unexpected channel and ignores it.
As we don't try to create new entry now, it's also safe to drop hw_value
and center_freq assignment. For known channels we have these set anyway.
I decided to fix this issue by assigning NULL or a target channel to the
channel variable. This was one of possible ways, I prefefred this one as
it also avoids using channel[index] over and over.

So far our core code was calling brcmf_fws_process_skb which wasn't
a proper thing to do. If case of devices using msgbuf protocol fwsignal
shouldn't be used. It was an unnecessary extra layer simply calling
a protocol specifix txdata function.
Please note we already have txdata callback, but it's used for calls
between bcdc and fwsignal so it couldn't be simply used there.
This makes core code more generic (instead of bcdc/fwsignal specific).

A bugfix added a sanity check around the assignment and use of the
'is_11d' variable, which looks correct to me, but as the function is
rather complex already, this confuses the compiler to the point where
it can no longer figure out if the variable is always initialized
correctly:
brcm80211/brcmfmac/cfg80211.c: In function ‘brcmf_cfg80211_start_ap’:
brcm80211/brcmfmac/cfg80211.c:4586:10: error: ‘is_11d’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
This adds an initialization for the newly introduced case in which
the variable should not really be used, in order to make the warning
go away.

Flowrings contain skbs waiting for transmission that were passed to us
by netif. It means we checked every one of them looking for 802.1x
Ethernet type. When deleting flowring we have to use freeing function
that will check for 802.1x type as well.
Freeing skbs without a proper check was leading to counter not being

Even with timeout increased to 950 ms we get WARNINGs from time to time.
It mostly happens on A-MPDU stalls (e.g. when station goes out of
range). It may take up to 5-10 secods for the firmware to recover and
for that time it doesn't process packets.
It's still useful to have a message on time out as it may indicate some
firmware problem and incorrect key update. Raising a WARNING however
wasn't really that necessary, it doesn't point to any driver bug anymore
and backtrace wasn't much useful.
