If a GO interface is active when we receive a
mgd_prepare_tx() call, then we need to send

ATH_CHANCTX_EVENT_AUTHORIZED is required to trigger
the MCC scheduler when a station interface becomes
authorized. But, since the driver gets station state
notifications when the current operating mode is AP
too, make sure that we send ATH_CHANCTX_EVENT_AUTHORIZED
only when the interface is in station mode.

Pending frames in the driver can be present
either in the HW queues or SW. ath9k_has_pending_frames()
currently checks for the HW queues first and then
checks if any ACs are queued in the driver.
In MCC mode, we need to check the HW queues alone, since
the SW queues are just marked as 'stopped' - they will
be processed in the next context switch. But since we
don't differentiate this now, mention whether we want
to check if there are frames in the SW queues.
* The flush() callback checks both HW and SW queues.
* The tx_frames_pending() callback does the same.
* The call to __ath9k_flush() in MCC mode checks HW queues alone.

An offchannel operation also needs to have
a flush timeout that doesn't exceed the NoA
absence duration of a GO context, so use
channel_switch_time. The first offchannel
operation is set a flush timeout of 10ms since
channel_switch_time will be zero.

In MCC mode, the duration for a channel context
is half the beacon interval and having a large
flush timeout will adversely affect GO operation,
since the default value of 200ms will overshoot
the advertised NoA absence duration.
The scheduler initiates a channel context switch
only when the slot duration for the current
context expires, so there is no possibility of
having a fixed timeout for flush.
Since the channel_switch_time is added to the
absence duration when the GO sets up the NoA
attribute, this is the maximum time that we
have to flush the TX queues. The duration is very
small, but we don't have a choice in MCC mode.

When a HW reset is done, the interrupt tasklet is
disabled before ISRs are disabled in the HW. This
allows a small window where the HW can still generate
interrupts. Since the tasklet is disabled and not killed,
it is not scheduled but deferred for execution at a later
time.
This happens because ATH_OP_HW_RESET is not set when ath_reset()
is called. When the hw_reset_work workqueue is used, this
problem doesn't arise because ATH_OP_HW_RESET is set
and the ISR bails out.
Set ATH_OP_HW_RESET properly in ath_reset() to avoid
this race - all the ath_reset_internal() callers have
been converted to use ath_reset() in the previous patch.

In MCC mode, currently the decision to enable
the multi-channel state machine is done
based on the association status if one of
the interfaces assigned to a context is in
station mode.
This allows the driver to switch to the other
context before the current station is able to
complete the 4-way handshake in case it is
required and this causes problems.
Instead, enable multi-channel mode when the
station moves to the authorized state. This
disallows an early switch to the other channel.

We provide timeout value to rt2x00usb_vendor_request_buff() based on
number of registers to process. That value is passed down to
rt2x00usb_vendor_req_buff_lock() and ends in usb_control_msg(). But we
do not read/write all registers in rt2x00usb_vendor_req_buff_lock() at
once. We read/write them in chunks of 64 bytes in the loop, hence passed
timeout value to low level is too big.
Patch removes timeout argument from rt2x00usb_vendor_request_buff() and
use short REGISTER_TIMEOUT in rt2x00usb_vendor_req_buff_lock(). That
timeout value should be fine for 64 bytes and smaller requests. For
EEPROM read we introduced new timeout value equal to 2 seconds.
Patch fixes process uninterruptible sleep stalls for long period, when
USB bus has problem to satisfy a request and we wait very long time on
usb_start_wait_urb().
