For performance monitoring, trace time intervals when Tx vring
is idle/not idle. Use CPU cycle counter for this, because jiffies is
too rough, and other precise time measurement methods involve
overhead while get_cycles() should be fast.
This used to provide some estimation for percentage when Tx vring
was idle, i.e. when hardware is under-utilized.
Estimation is not precise because of many reasons - CPU frequency scaling,
grt_cycles() may be per core etc. But still, it is good estimation

Provide 2 files on the debugfs:
- "rxon": write channel (1..4) to open Rx on it, 0 to rxoff
- "tx_mgmt": write binary frame, starting from MAC header
one need to care about turning receiver on/off before/after tx_mgmt
Correct sequence is:
echo $channel > rxon
cat mfmt_frame > tx_mgmt
echo 0 > rxon

Firmware 10.x supports up to 8 virtual AP interfaces, but in a DFS
channel it was possible to create only 7 interfaces as ath10k internal
creates a monitor interface for DFS. Previous vdev map initialization
was missing enough space for 8 + 1 vdevs due to wrong define used and
that's why there was no space for 8th interface. Use the correct define
TARGET_10X_NUM_VDEVS with 10.x firmware to make it possible to create
the 8th virtual interface.

While fixing a bug reported by Avery I went ahead
and added a warning suspecting there might be
something more to the bug. This ended up with
people reporting they see warnings during heavy
traffic. This bought me some time and helped me
understand the problem better - apparently fw/hw
can report a chained msdus as follows: 1 msdu, 1
chained, 1 msdu (0 length).
The patch removes the extra check but leaves the
other change that fixed the original skb_push
panic bug (msdu_chaining was overwritten in an
unfortunate way which made the above example to
be treated as non-chained case).

In case there is something fundamentally wrong with the firmware
(example: RF cable disconnected), FW will always crash immediately
after reset. This leads to infinite fw error recovery loop.
Count consecutive unsuccessful error recovery attempts in a short period
of time, and stop doing recovery after some reasonable count.
It is still possible to manually reset fw doing
