ath5k updates the channel pointer and after that it stops the Rx logic
and apply channel to HW. In case of channel switch, such sequence
creates a small window when a frame, which is received on the old
channel is considered as a frame received on the new one.
The most notable consequence of this situation occurs during the switch
from 2 GHz band (CCK+OFDM) to the 5GHz band (OFDM-only). Frame received
with CCK rate, e.g. beacon received at the 1mbps, causes the following
warning:

The easiest way to reproduce this warning is to run scan with dualband
NIC in noisy environments, when the channel 11 runs multiple APs. In my
tests if the APs num >= 12, the warning appears in the first few
seconds of scanning.
In order to fix this, the Rx disable code moved to a higher level and
placed before the channel pointer update. This is also makes the code a
bit more symmetrical, since we disable and enable the Rx in the same
function.
In fact, at the pointer update time new frames should not appear,
because interrupt generation at this point should already be disabled.
The next patch should address this issue.

The PHY state machine (in drivers/net/phy/phy.c) will unconditionally
call phydev->adjust_link (macb_handle_link_change) when polling in the
PHY_CHANGELINK state. As currently written, macb always ends up
requesting a new tx_clk frequency in macb_handle_link_change. It is a
waste of time to request a new tx_clk frequency if the link state hasn't
changed, as the tx_clk will already be configured properly.
Let's only request a new tx_clk clock frequency when necessary.

The return value in iwl_mvm_get_wakeup_status() is a bit unclear in
that it's not obvious that we don't leak fw_status in some cases.
Use fw_status directly with ERR_PTR() and return only it, that way
the compiler has a chance of proving that it's uninitialized (if it
ever is due to new changes.)
Additionally, this removes a smatch warning since smatch couldn't
figure out that fw_status can't, in fact, leak here.

When a station goes to sleep, we can't transmit any frame
to it. This means that until that station will wake up, a
queue that is dedicated to this station won't progress at
all. Take this into account when monitoring stuck queues
and don't account for the time the station was asleep.
This allows to mask false positives where the queues are
stuck not because of a bug, but because of the station
being asleep.
Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>
This allows the op_mode to let the transport know that a
queue is currently frozen and that its timer should be
stopped.
When the queue is unfrozen, its timer should be set to
expire after the remainder of the timeout has elapsed.
This can be used when stations go to sleep. When a station
goes to sleep, the op_mode can freeze the timer so that the
queue will never be considered as stuck. When the station
wakes up, the queue will be unfrozen.
This is meant to avoid false positives that would happen if
a buggy station goes to sleep for a very long time. In case
we have a dedicated queue for this station (BA agreement)
and it goes to sleep for a very long time, the queue would
rightfully be stopped during all that time. In this case,
the stuck queue timer could fire and that would be a false
positive.

When entering D0i3, the MVM mutex cannot be grabbed. This interferes
with the calculation of the number of connected TDLS stations during
the setup of the power cmd.
The goal is to disable power saving for all vifs while any TDLS station
is connected. For this purpose it is enough to keep the pm_enabled
member of all mvmvifs as false. An update of the power state already
occurs when a TDLS station is added/removed, so the values are correctly

We don't need to acquire MAC access for each access, it
makes much more sense to keep the MAC access. This speeds
up the Tx DMA stop flow significantly.
Moreover, if one channel can't be stopped, stop the others
but don't poll for them to avoid being stuck there for a
long time.
This solves a situation in which we were stuck in that flow
for way too long with a spinlock held which led to a kernel
panic.
