b0302aba81 rtlwifi: Convert to asynchronous firmware load
This patch addresses a kernel bugzilla report and two recent mail threads.

The kernel bugzilla report is https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42632,
which reports a udev timeout on boot.

The first mail thread, which was on LKML (http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/
linux/kernel/1112.3/00965.html) was for a WARNING that occurs after a
suspend/resume cycle for rtl8192cu.

The scond mail thread (http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=132655490826766&w=2)
concerned changes in udev that break drivers that delay while firmware is loaded
on modprobe.

This patch converts all rtlwifi-based drivers to use the asynchronous firmware
loading mechanism. Drivers rtl8192ce, rtl8192cu and rtl8192de share a common
callback routine. Driver rtl8192se needs different handling of the firmware,
thus it has its own code.

2ed81710cc iwlwifi: always restrict scan dwell in P2P
Whenever the PAN (P2P) context is active, it
has timers in the uCode that prevent sleep,
so scanning can't be out of channel for more
than the beacon interval programmed into the
device.

Before this patch, a full scan including any
passive channels when P2P was active would
stall forever because it wouldn't find time
to execute the passive requests (for default
beacon intervals of 100 TU.)

2b2db58d65 iwlwifi: fix uCode event tracing
Fix multiple bugs in event tracing:

1) If you enable uCode tracing with the device down,
   it will still attempt to access the device and
   continuously log "MAC is in deep sleep!" errors.
   Fix this by only starting logging when the device
   is actually alive.

2) Now you can set the flag when the device is down,
   but logging doesn't happen when you bring it up.
   To fix that, start logging when the device comes
   alive. This means we don't log before -- we could
   do that but I don't need it right now.

3) For some reason we read the error instead of the
   event log -- use the right pointer.

4) Optimise SRAM reading of event log header.

5) Fix reading write pointer == capacity, which can
   happen due to racy SRAM access

6) Most importantly: fix an error where we would try
   to read WAY too many events (like 2^32-300) when
   we read the wrap counter before it is updated by
   the uCode -- this does happen in practice and will
   cause the driver to hang the machine.

7) Finally, change the timer to 10ms instead of 100ms
   as 100ms is too slow to capture all data with a
   normal event log and with 100ms the log will wrap
   multiple times before we have a chance to read it.

608383bfc0 mac80211: Fix incorrect num_sta_ps decrement in ap_sta_ps_end
If the driver blocked this specific STA with the help of
ieee80211_sta_block_awake we won't clear WLAN_STA_PS_STA later but
still decrement num_sta_ps. Hence, the next data frame from this
STA will trigger ap_sta_ps_end again and also decrement num_sta_ps
again leading to an incorrect num_sta_ps counter.

This can result in problems with powersaving clients not waking up
from PS because the TIM calculation might be skipped due to the
incorrect num_sta_ps counter.

83d5cc0124 mac80211: station state transition error handling
In the future, when we start notifying drivers,
state transitions could potentially fail. To make
it easier to distinguish between programming bugs
and driver failures:
 * rename sta_info_move_state() to
   sta_info_pre_move_state() which can only be
   called before the station is inserted (and
   check this with a new station flag).
 * rename sta_info_move_state_checked() to just
   plain sta_info_move_state(), as it will be
   the regular function that can fail for more
   than just one reason (bad transition or an
   error from the driver)

This makes the programming model easier -- one of
the functions can only be called before insertion
and can't fail, the other can fail.

Currently, when we are on an IBSS network with no active station,
we would scan for other BSSID, even if fixed_bssid is on,  due to

would not be used anyway.
