Currently rs uses the info in mac80211 tx status which is
a translation of the actual rate coming up from the FW in
the tx response. This is matched up against the LQ table first
rate to make sure this tx frame used the current LQ table.
Instead of using the translated mac80211 info it's easier and
cleaner to just pass the actual tx response rate in the driver
private data and use that for matching.
This becomes even more important once the FW begins to
decide on its own whether to use STBC/BFER/SISO.

A new host command can be used to configure the scheduler
instead of accessing the scheduler's registers from the
driver. This is easier and less error prone since accessing
the hardware at certain moments can lead to races with the
firmware.
Prefer to use the host command whenever it is available.

BAR tx cmd tid was set to non qos (8). This is wrong as BAR

This led to a corruption in the firmware. The visible

Currently BA notifications which don't reclaim any frames
would not cause the RS to be called as no skbs are passed
to mac80211. This is not optimal as RS can benefit from the
statistics of sent vs. acked of such a BA. This can improve the
reaction time of the RS algorithm. Also, an upcoming change in
the firmware would cause BA timeout to be reported as a BA notif
with 0 acked so this change is required for that as well.

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

potential packet loss disable tx to all the stations when the channel

target channel, or after IWL_MVM_CS_UNBLOCK_TX_TIMEOUT beacons on a new

Use the new NAPI infrastructure added to mac80211 to get
GRO. We don't really implement NAPI since we don't have
a real poll function and we never schedule a NAPI poll.
Instead of this, we collect all the packets we got from a
single interrupt and then call napi_gro_flush().
This allows us to benefit from GRO. In half duplex medium
like WiFi, its main advantage is that it reduces the number
of TCP Acks, hence improving the TCP Rx performance.
Since we call the Rx path with a spinlock held, remove
the might_sleep mention from the op_mode's API.

When we disassociate in managed mode, we flush the queues
after mac80211 has already removed the station.
During that time, the pointer to ieee80211_sta to the
fw_id_to_mac_id map is -EINVAL. In that case we should not
set the station as being drained when the last Tx of this
station has exited the shared Tx queue since we are
flushing all the queues anyway.
The draining logic is meant to be used in GO / AP mode only.
In GO / AP mode, we set -EBUSY in the fw_id_to_mac_id map.
This is why testing the ieee80211_sta pointer in the
fw_id_to_mac_id map with IS_ERR isn't enough to set the
station as draining, we need to check that it is -EBUSY.
