For the messages from host to target, shadow copy of CE descriptors
are maintained in source ring. Before writing actual CE descriptor,
first shadow copy is filled and then it is copied to CE address space.
To optimize in download path and to reduce d-cache pressure, removing
shadow copy of CE descriptors. This will also reduce driver memory
consumption by 33KB during on device probing.

The physical address necessary to unmap DMA ('bufferp') is stored
in ath10k_skb_cb as 'paddr'. ath10k doesn't rely on the meta/transfer_id
when handling send completion (htc ep id is stored in sk_buff control
buffer). So the unused output arguments {bufferp, nbytesp and transfer_idp}
are removed from CE send completion. This change is needed before removing
the shadow copy of copy engine (CE) descriptors in follow up patch.

Currently to avoid uncached memory access while filling up copy engine
descriptors, shadow descriptors are used. This can be optimized further
by removing shadow descriptors. To achieve that first shadow ring
dependency in ce_send is removed by creating local copy of the
descriptor on stack and make a one-shot copy into the "uncached"
descriptor.

Register receive callbacks for every copy engines (CE) separately
instead of having common receive handler. Some of the copy engines
receives different type of messages (i.e HTT/HTC/pktlog) from target.
Hence to service them accordingly, register per copy engine receive

After processing received packets from copy engine, host will allocate
new buffer and queue them back to copy engine ring for further
packet reception. On post rx processing path, skb allocation and
dma mapping are unnecessarily handled within ce_lock. This is affecting
peak throughput and also causing more CPU consumption. Optimize this
by acquiring ce_lock only when accessing copy engine ring and moving
skb allocation out of ce_lock.
In AP148 platform with QCA99x0 in conducted environment, UDP uplink peak
throughput is improved from ~1320 Mbps to ~1450 Mbps and TCP uplink peak
throughput is increased from ~1240 Mbps (70% host CPU load) to ~1300 Mbps
(71% CPU load). Similarly ~40Mbps improvement is observed in downlink

Going through full htc tx path for htt tx is a
waste of resources. By skipping it it's possible
to easily submit scatter-gather to the pci hif for
reduced host cpu load and improved performance.
The new approach uses dma pool to store the
following metadata for each tx request:
* msdu fragment list
* htc header
* htt tx command
The htt tx command contains a msdu prefetch.
Instead of copying it original mapped msdu address
is used to submit a second scatter-gather item to
hif to make a complete htt tx command.
The htt tx command itself hands over dma mapped
pointers to msdus and completion of the command
itself doesn't mean the frame has been sent and
can be unmapped/freed. This is why htc tx
completion is skipped for htt tx as all tx related
resources are freed upon htt tx completion
indication event (which also implicitly means htt
tx command itself was completed).
Since now each htt tx request effectively consists
of 2 copy engine items CE_HTT_H2T_MSG_SRC_NENTRIES
is updated to allow maximum of
TARGET_10X_NUM_MSDU_DESC msdus being queued. This
keeps the tx path resource management simple.

It's impossible to rely on disable_irq() and/or CE
interrupt masking with legacy shared interrupts.
Other devices sharing the same irq line may assert
it while ath10k is doing something that requires
no interrupts.
Irq handlers are now registered after all
preparations are complete so spurious/foreign
interrupts won't do any harm. The handlers are
unregistered when no interrupts are required (i.e.
during driver teardown).
This also removes the ability to receive FW early
indication (since interrupts are not registered
until early boot is complete). This is not mission
critical (it's more of a hint that early boot
failed due to unexpected FW crash) and will be
re-added in a follow up patch.
