Allow switching back to legacy Tx columns so we'll stop doing
HT/VHT in case we're far from the AP. Stop active aggregation when
making a deciding to stay in a legacy column.
Despite having low legacy rates in the LQ table lower entries
it doesn't help much in case we're doing aggregations as the
aggregation was being transmitted in the initial rate of the table.
This should help traffic stalls when far from the AP.

After being idle for a long time (>5sec) the rs statistics
will be stale so we prefer to reset rs and start from legacy
rates again. This gives better results when the attenuation
increased signficantly (e.g. we got further from the AP) and
after a while we start Tx
Note that the first Tx after the idle period will still go out
in the old modulation and rate but this seemed a simpler approach
compared to adding a timer or modifying mac80211 for this.
The negative impact is negligble as we'll recover quickly.

If we have no beacon data before association, delay smart FIFO
enablement until after we have this data.
Not doing so can cause association failures in extremely silent
environments (usually only a shielded box/room) as beacon RX is
not sent to the host immediately, and then the association time
event ends without the host receiving any beacon even though it
was on the air - it's just stuck on the FIFO.

The watchdog thread waits on completion that is set from a timer. As
the completion is count based this could mean that on a busy system
the watchdog is handled multiple times with a very short interval.
This is not the intended behaviour. After handling the watchdog it
should wait for the next timer expiry. This is accomplished by
reinitializing the completion.

In case of system low latency configure passive scan to be fragmented.
Set the following scan parameters for both immediate and scheduled scan:
- passive scan fragment duration = 20ms
- out-of-channel time = 70ms
- suspend time = 105ms
Restructure channel's active/passive dwell time configuration to better
suit the above change.
The idea is that under low latency traffic passive scan is fragmented,
i.e. that dwell on a particular channel will be fragmented. Each
fragment dwell time is 20ms and fragments period is 105ms. Skipping to
next channel will be delayed by the same period (105ms). So suspend_time
parameter describing both fragments and channels skipping periods is set
to 105ms. This value is chosen so that overall passive scan duration
will not be too long. Max_out_time in this case is set to 70ms, so for
active scanning operating channel will be left for 70ms while for
passive still for 20ms (fragment dwell).

Some scan parameters should be dependent on traffic conditions.
Centralize conditions verification in one function and obtain
scan max out-of-channel and suspend time in that new function.
Rely on bound interfaces indication instead of association state
to calculate scan parameters. If no bound interfaces use default
values for out-of-channel and suspend time parameters.
Additionally, get rid of NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_LOW_PRIORITY checks
since no use case for this exists so far.

When the firmware asserts, the driver will dump the firmware
state to an internal buffer. This buffer is kept aside until
it is dumped through debugfs. Once an external application
fetched the data, the buffer is freed and a new buffer can
be allocated in case another assert occurs.
A udev event is sent to trigger an external application.
A simple rule like:
DRIVER=="iwlwifi", ACTION=="change", RUN+="/sbin/dump_sram.sh"
can fetch the data from debugfs.
Here is my dump_sram.sh:
phyname=$(basename ${DEVPATH})
date=$(date +%F_%H_%M)
filename=/var/log/iwl-sram-${phyname}-${date}.bin
cat /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/${phyname}/iwlwifi/iwlmvm/fw_error_dump > ${filename}
The current SRAM size is 80KB so, currently:
$ ls -lh iwl-sram-phy0-2014-03-16_13_14.bin
-rw-r--r-- 1 emmanuel emmanuel 81K Mar 16 13:15 iwl-sram-phy0-2014-03-16_13_14.bin

To protect from the race above, make sure NAPI won't process the same vring.
Introduce 'enabled' flag in the struct vring_tx_data. Proceed with Tx NAPI only if
'enabled' flag set. Prior to Tx vring release, clear this flag and make sure NAPI
