With the current approach of scanning, roaming delays are observed.
Firmware has support for back ground scanning. To get this advantage,
mac80211 hardware scan is implemented, which decides type of scan to
do based on connected state.
When station is in not connected, driver returns with special value 1
to trigger software scan in mac80211. In case of connected state,
background scan will be triggered.

Currently, AP mode will work on only WLAN alone firmware. To give support
for AP and BT dual mode, adding firmware entry in 'struct ta_metadata'.
The firmware entry is based on what coex_mode is used in driver and coex
mode '4' for all AP+BT related functionalities. Hence, added the same.

To support roaming below changes are done:
* Station notify frame is send to firmware after sending assoc
request. This will avoid dropping of first EAPOL frame due to
delay in creation of station control block in firmware.
* Data queues are unblocked after sending station notify in open
mode, after configuring key in WEP mode, and after receiving
EAPOL4 confirm in WPA mode.
* Initial EAPOL frames priority is chaged to MGMT, rekey EAPOL
frames priority changed to VO.

BT frames are passed through coex and hal modules to BUS.
After firmware is loaded, based on the operating mode CARD
READY frame comes for each protocol. When BT card ready is
received, BT attach is called.
Protocol operations are exchanged between the modules
at initialization time.
Build flag CONFIG_RSI_COEX is introduced to enable coex support
if CONFIG_BT_RSIHCI is enabled. Coex operations are valid if
coex mode is greater than 1 only.

With BT support, driver has to handle two streams of data
(i.e. wlan and BT). Actual coex implementation is in firmware.
Coex module just schedule the packets to firmware by taking them
from the corresponding paths.
Structures for module and protocol operations are introduced for
this purpose. Protocol operations structure is global structure
which can be shared among different modules. Move initialization
of coex and operating mode values to rsi_91x_init().

After successful loading of firmware, a CARD READY indication is
received by host. Common device configuration parameters are sent
to the device after this. It includes information like device
operating mode (Wi-Fi alone or BT coex), power save related
parameters, GPIO information etc. As device supports BT coex,
this frame is send in COEX queue initially. Based on the operating
mode, CARD READY indication is received from each protocol module
in firmware i.e. WLAN, BT.

Before firmware load, sometimes false interrupts are received.
System hang is observed if interrupt handler is not registered
to receive these interrupts. Hence interrupt handler registration
is moved before firmware load. We will drop these false interrupts

The older firmware loading method has been deprecated and not in use
for any chipets. New method is introduced which works based on soft
boot loader. In this method, complete RAM image and FLASH image are
present in the flash. Before loading the functional firmware, host
issues boot loader commands to verify whether firmware to load is
different from the current functional firmware. If not, firmware
upgrade progresses and boot loader will switch to the new functional
firmware.
"rs9113_wlan_qspi.rps" is the firmware filename used in this patch.
