0436fd9a2d wil6210: Change of threshold for tx vring idleness measurement
Change threshold to be variable debugfs entry from hard-coded 0.
Default threshold value is 16 descriptors because HW is capable
of fetching up to 16 descriptors at once.

3277213feb wil6210: ADDBA/DELBA flows
Introduce BACK establishment procedures; decision logic is not implemented
yet; debugfs entry 'addba' used to manually trigger addba/delba for ringid 0.

debugfs usage:
to establish BACK with agg_wsize 16:
  echo 16 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/wil6210/addba
to delete BACK:
  echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/wil6210/addba
to change agg_wsize, one need to delete BACK and establish it anew

ADDBA flow for:

- originator

Tx side (initiator) sends WMI_VRING_BA_EN_CMDID providing
agg_wsize and timeout parameters.
Eventually, it gets event confirming BACK agreement - WMI_BA_STATUS_EVENTID
with negotiated parameters. On this event, update Tx vring data
(struct vring_tx_data) and display BACK parameters on debugfs

- recipient

Rx side (recipient) firmware informs driver about ADDBA with
WMI_RCP_ADDBA_REQ_EVENTID, driver process it in service work
queue wq_service. It adjusts parameters and sends response
with WMI_RCP_ADDBA_RESP_CMDID, and final confirmation provided
by firmware with WMI_ADDBA_RESP_SENT_EVENTID. In case of success,
driver updates Rx BACK reorder buffer.

policy for BACK parameters:
- aggregation size (agg_wsize * MPDUsize)) to not exceed 64Kbytes

DELBA flow for:

- originator

driver decides to terminate BACK, it sends WMI_VRING_BA_DIS_CMDID
and updates struct vring_tx_data associated with vring; ignore
WMI_DELBA_EVENTID.

- recipient

firmware informs driver with WMI_DELBA_EVENTID,
driver deletes correspondent reorder buffer

ADDBA request processing requires sending WMI command, therefore
it is processed in work queue context. Same work queue used as for
connect, it get renamed to wq_service

In the wil_tx_ring, error message printed when tx attempted
while vring has no space to accommodate all fragments of frame.
Normally, such situation handled by stopping tx queue.
But, if tx queue is by-passed (like pktgen does), this error
will be triggered at high rate and dmesg will be flooded with
this message. Whole system may become unstable and hang with
no possible recover except power cycle.

For performance monitoring, trace time intervals when Tx vring
is idle/not idle. Use CPU cycle counter for this, because jiffies is
too rough, and other precise time measurement methods involve

This used to provide some estimation for percentage when Tx vring
was idle, i.e. when hardware is under-utilized.
Estimation is not precise because of many reasons - CPU frequency scaling,
grt_cycles() may be per core etc. But still, it is good estimation

When disconnecting some CID, corresponded Tx vring get released. During vring
release, all descriptors get freed. It is possible that Tx NAPI working on the same
vring simultaneously. If it happens, descriptor may be double freed.

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
get synchronized.

NAPI enablement status protected by wil->mutex, add protection where it was
missing and check for it.

During reset, disconnect all peers first, then proceed with the Rx vring. It allows for
the disconnect flow to observe proper 'wil->status' and correctly notify cfg80211 about
connection status change

1cbbcb08c7 wil6210: prefetch head of packet
As soon as skb is ready to be reaped, prefetch 1-st cache line.
This accelerates data access that is performed later, during the
packet classification by the driver and IP stack.
