The firmware hang issue is not seen very often,
though it is still seen sometimes (once in 12
hours in local tests). The changes in the driver
,to interrupt the firmware, are needed when we
detect that firmware is stuck and when the host
queues are full and we begin to drop packets.
This is to ensure that the firmware does not
miss any PPA_RDY interrupts to cause the firmware
restart dont miss PPA_READY interrupt for SC2

This rate causes an overflow in the extended rates IE's data rate field,
with the overflowing bit setting the Basic Rate Set membership. This
results in a bogus 8 Mpbs basic rate, making clients checking them refuse
association.
Since the rate is likely unused anyway (HT will yield better rates between
supporting chips), we can just remove it.
This fixes association from wpa_supplicant and Android 4.x and newer.

Fix settings not being applied when the device is idle and the firmware
gets reloaded (because of changing from STA to AP mode). This caused
the device using the wrong channel (and likely band), e.g. a 5 GHz only
card still defaulted to channel 6 in the 2.4 GHz band when left
unconfigured.
This issue was always present, but only made visible with "mwl8k: Do not
call mwl8k_cmd_set_rf_channel unconditionally" (0f4316b9), since before
that the channel was (re-)configured at the next _config call even when
it did not change from the mac80211 perspective.

Currently the caps are parsed on every firmware reload, causing any
channel flags to be cleared.
When there is a firmware to interface mode mismatch, the triggered
firmware reload causes a reset of the regulatory settings, causing all

empty.

When TX aggregation is stopped, there are a few
different cases:
- connection with the peer was dropped
- session stop was requested locally
- session stop was requested by the peer
- connection was dropped while a session is stopping
The behaviour in these cases should be different, if
the connection is dropped then the driver should drop
all frames, otherwise the frames may continue to be
transmitted, aggregated in the case of a locally
requested session stop or unaggregated in the case of
the peer requesting session stop.
Split these different cases so that the driver can
act accordingly; however, treat local and remote stop
the same way and ask the driver to not send frames as
aggregated packets any more.
In the case of connection drop, the stop callback the
driver is otherwise supposed to call is no longer
required.

The firmware supports 8 macid's corresponding to 8 BSS that can be
created in an MBSS environment. Currently, BASTREAM commands were always
sent with macid 0. This macid is used to configure the hardware ampdu
registers with appropriate BSS address in an MBSS environment.
This mac address is used by the hardware for various ampdu related requirements
e.g. source address in BAR generation, BA interpretation e.t.c.
Using invalid macid results in this mac address not getting appropriately
configured in the hardware which results in issues during ampdu traffic.
Fix this by sending the BASTREAM commands with appropriate macid.
