66ddcc3942 ath6kl: Make fw error recovery configurable
Add a modparam to configure recovery. Recovery
from firmware error is disabled by default to debug
the actual issue further. To recovery from error,
modprobe ath6kl_core recovery_enable=1.

a356170632 ath6kl: Add a bit to ath6kl_dev_state for recovery cleanup state
Add a bit in ath6kl_dev_state to maintian the run time state
of firmware recovery configuration. This would help to have
user configuration in fw_recovery which will be added in
a separate patch.

e451f947c5 ath6kl: Remove unnecessary recovery state check in ath6kl_recovery_hb_timer()
Checking for recovery state just before re-arming hb_timer is not
necessary, this should be done at the begining of the timer instead.

9d9188409a ath6kl: Fix bug in scheduling hb_timer
hb_timer should be scheduled only when hb_poll is non-zero.
But in ath6kl_recovery_work() the timer is scheduled based
on fw_recovery.enable instead which is wrong.

77565794eb ath6kl: Recover from "wmi ctrl ep is full" condition
In some error conditions, fw pauses HTC pipes which would
result in control endpoint full condition. When we hit this
case, most of the time the device will be unusable. Re-initialize
the target to recover from this situation.

9233299394 ath6kl: Add support to detect fw error through heart beat
This patch adds support to detect fw error condition by sending
periodic message (heart beat challenge) to firmware. Upon reception
of the message, fw would send a response event to driver. When
there are no reponses from fw for about 5 cmd driver would
trigger the recovery logic assuming that fw has gone into an
error state.

Capable fw will advertise this capability through
ATH6KL_FW_CAPABILITY_HEART_BEAT_POLL bit. This feature
is disabled by default, can be enabled through a modparam
(heart_beat_poll). This modparam also confiures the polling
interval in msecs.

84caf8005b ath6kl: Recover from fw crash
Re-initialize the target when fw crash is reported.
This would make the device functional again after
target crash. During the target re-initialization
it is made sure that target is not bugged with data/cmd
request, ar->state ATH6KL_STATE_RECOVERY is used
for this purpose.
