4cbb8e5033 iwlwifi: pcie: add RTPM support when wifi is enabled
Enable runtime power management (RTPM) for PCIe devices and implement
the corresponding functions to enable D0i3 mode when the device is
idle.

Additionally, remove some unnecessary #ifdef's because the RTPM code
will not be called if runtime PM is not configured.

3955525d5d iwlwifi: pcie: buffer packets to avoid overflowing Tx queues
When the Tx queues are full above a threshold, we
immediately stop the mac80211's queue to stop getting new
packets. This worked until TSO was enabled.
With TSO, one single packet from mac80211 can use many
descriptors since a large send needs to be split into
several segments.
This means that stopping mac80211's queues is not enough
and we also need to ensure that we don't overflow the Tx
queues with one single packet from mac80211.
Add code to transport layer to do just that. Stop
mac80211's queue as soon as the queue is full above the
same threshold as before, and keep pushing the current
packet along with its segments on the queue, but check
that we don't overflow. If that would happen, buffer the
segments, and send them when there is room in the Tx queue
again. Of course, we first need to send the buffered
segments and only then, wake up mac80211's queues.

6eb5e529d7 iwlwifi: pcie: build an A-MSDU using TSO core
When the op_mode sends an skb whose payload is bigger than
MSS, PCIe will create an A-MSDU out of it. PCIe assumes
that the skb that is coming from the op_mode can fit in one
A-MSDU. It is the op_mode's responsibility to make sure
that this guarantee holds.

Additional headers need to be built for the subframes.
The TSO core code takes care of the IP / TCP headers and
the driver takes care of the 802.11 subframe headers.

These headers are stored on a per-cpu page that is re-used
for all the packets handled on that same CPU. Each skb
holds a reference to that page and releases the page when
it is reclaimed. When the page gets full, it is released
and a new one is allocated.

Since any SKB that doesn't go through the fast-xmit path
of mac80211 will be segmented, we can assume here that the
packet is not WEP / TKIP and has a proper SNAP header.

The code that handles the TBs that contain the WiFi payload
will be changed for TSO. Move the current code into a
separate function.

41837ca962 iwlwifi: pcie: allow to pretend to have Tx CSUM for debug
Allow to configure the driver to pretend to have TX CSUM
offload support. This will be useful to test the TSO flows
that will come in further patches.
This configuration is disabled by default.

dcbb474628 iwlwifi: trans: support a callback for ASYNC commands
This allows the op_mode to request from the transport to
call a callback when an ASYNC commands is completed by
the firmware. The same callback will be called for all the
commands. Pass the command whose response triggers the
callback as a parameter to the callback itself.

0cd58eaab1 iwlwifi: pcie: allow the op_mode to block the tx queues
In certain flows (see next patches), the op_mode may need to
block the Tx queues for a short period. Provide an API for
that. The transport is in charge of counting the number of
times the queues are blocked since the op_mode may block the
queues several times in a row before unblocking them.
