PS buffering of unicast Action frames that are sent in a context
of a BSS. In AP mode when the recepient station goes to powersave
and PS_POLL flag is not set, we would buffer the frames. Send out
unicast mgmt bufferred frame when PS_POLL is received.
This fixes a bug in P2P GO behavior when sending a GO Discoverability
Request to a client that is in sleep mode.

Aggregation is completely broken when more than one

* A new APSD power save queue is added in the station structure.
* When a station has APSD capability and goes to power save, the frame
designated to the station will be buffered in APSD queue.
* When the host receives a frame which the firmware marked as trigger,
host delivers the buffered frame from the APSD power save queue.
Number of frames to deliver is decided by MAX SP length.
* When a station moves from sleep to awake state, all frames buffered
in APSD power save queue are sent to the firmware.
* When a station is disconnected, all frames bufferes in APSD power save
queue are dropped.
* When the host queues the first frame to the APSD queue or removes the
last frame from the APSD queue, it is indicated to the firmware using
WMI_AP_APSD_BUFFERED_TRAFFIC_CMD.

This patch addresses a few problems with the commit:
"ath6kl: Implement support for listen interval from userspace"
* The debugfs file required for reading/writing the listen interval
wasn't created. Fix this.
* The interface index was being hardcoded to zero. Fix this.
* Two separate parameters, "listen_interval_time and listen_interval_beacons"
were being used. This fails to work as expected because the FW assigns
higher precedence to "listen_interval_beacons" and "listen_interval_time"
ends up being never used at all.
To handle this, fix the host driver to exclusively use listen interval
based on units of beacon intervals.
To set the listen interval, a user would now do something like this:
echo "10" > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/*/ath6kl/listen_interval

The change enables offloading TCP checksum calculation to firmware.
There are still some issues with the checksum offload so better to
disable it by default until the issues are resolved.
To enable TCP checksum offload for tx and rx paths, use
the ethtool as follows:
ethtool -K <interface> tx on
ethtool -K <interface> rx on
To disable TCP checksum offload, for tx and rx paths, use
the ethtool as follows:
ethtool -K <interface> tx off

Jouni reported that my patch "ath6kl: power down hardware when interface
is down" caused a regression on his x86 boxes and scan didn't work anymore.
I was able to reproduce the problem by disabling all debug messages.
So there has to be a race condition somewhere in the code and disable the
functionality until the race is fixed. Now hardware is powered from the
point where module is loaded until it's removed.

but this lock took another, SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock in the past:
(&(&ar->list_lock)->rlock){+.+...}
and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.

softirqs have to be disabled when acquiring ar->list_lock to avoid
the above deadlock condition. When the above warning printed the
interface is still up and running without issue.

Currently it takes an error code as status, but what we really want to
tell is if the scan was aborted or not.
Also fix a bug where we were comparing firmware scan status values
with kernel error codes, which is obviously wrong. This meant
that ath6kl didn't detect when firmware informed about failed scans. I
doubt that this fix doesn't make any difference in practise but it
still needs to be fixed. This is fixed by adding an enum for the success
status code and checking for that.

The benefit from this is that user space can control hardware's power state
by putting interface up and down. This is handy if firmware gets to some
