Since each firmware block takes on the order of several hundred usec
to upload to the hardware, using msleep in the inner loop would make
the firmware loading process take a lot more time than just doing
busy-waiting like we do now. But if we keep the busy-waiting, we can
at least add a cond_resched() to the inner loop so that we give other
tasks a chance to run while the firmware is being loaded.

When FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC is not set, we enable the hardware's BSS
filter so that we'll only see packets destined for our BSS. But if no
STA interfaces have been configured, we would end up passing the BSSID
00:00:00:00:00:00 into the POST_SCAN command, which actually disables
the hardware's BSS filter, as it's not a valid BSSID.
Fix this by passing in 01:00:00:00:00:00 instead (the criterion is
that the OUI part of the BSSID must be nonzero), and add comments to
explain what PRE_SCAN and POST_SCAN do.

mwl8k's ->prepare_multicast() currently just enables reception of
all multicast packets, which is somewhat ineffective.
Fix this by either disabling all multicast RX, enabling multicast
RX according to the multicast address filter table, or enabling all
multicast RX, depending on whether ->prepare_multicast() was given
any multicast addresses and whether the hardware multicast address
filter table is large enough to fit all requested addresses.

Minor changes to the transmit quiescing logic:
- Clarify the locking rules for ->tx_wait: only the holder of fw_mutex
can wait for the TX path to become idle, but tx_wait itself is read
and cleared by the TX reclaim tasklet under tx_lock.
- Inline mwl8k_txq_busy() in its callers.
- There's no need to kick the transmitter again in
mwl8k_tx_wait_empty(), since it will have been kicked when the
packets currently in the TX ring were added to it.
- If the TX ring didn't drain in time, run mwl8k_scan_tx_ring() after
reading priv->pending_pkts without dropping tx_lock in between.

The current mwl8k_priv->fw_lock spinlock doesn't actually protect
against multiple commands being submitted at once, as it is not kept
held over the entire firmware command submission. And since waiting
for command completion sleeps, we can't use a spinlock anyway.
To fix mwl8k firmware command serialisation properly, we have the
following requirements:
- Some commands require that the packet transmit path is idle when
the command is issued. (For simplicity, we'll just quiesce the
transmit path for every command.)
- There are certain sequences of commands that need to be issued to
the hardware sequentially, with no other intervening commands.
This leads to an implementation of a "firmware lock" as a mutex that
can be taken recursively, and which is taken by both the low-level
command submission function (mwl8k_post_cmd) as well as any users of
that function that require issuing of an atomic sequence of commands,
and quiesces the transmit path whenever it's taken.

Delete most of the mwl8k_work_struct fields and options, since most
of them are unused or never changed from their defaults:
- We always use priv->config_wq, so delete the wqueue argument from
mwl8k_queue_work().
- MWL8K_WQ_SPIN and MWL8K_WQ_POST_REQUEST are never used, as all
callers sleep for request completion, so sleep unconditionally.
- MWL8K_WQ_FREE_WORKSTRUCT is never used.
- MWL8K_WQ_TX_WAIT_EMPTY is always set, so assume it unconditionally.
- timeout_ms/txwait_attempts/tx_timeout_ms are never changed from
their defaults, so just hardcode these in the workqueue worker.
- step is never used.

Various mwl8k_txq_xmit changes:
- Extract the QoS field before adding the DMA header.
- Only write to tx->status once, and only after all the other
descriptor fields have been set.
- Do all tx state manipulation under the tx spinlock.
- Remove the priv->inconfig check, as all transmit queues will
be frozen during config cycles, so we won't ever be asked to
transmit if a config cycle is running.
- Remove some more dead code.

Since firmware load commands don't generate 'command done' interrupts
like normal commands do, polling for command done interrupts just
unnecessarily slows down the firmware load process. Removing this bit
of code speeds up loading a typical firmware image from 840 msec to

Adding and removing the DMA header that the mwl8k hardware requires
on tx and provides on rx can never fail, since we are guaranteed to
have enough headroom on the tx path to expand the packet, and we only
ever shrink the packet on the rx path. (And on both paths we are
guaranteed to be the only user of the skb we are handling.)
This allows removing all of the skb clone handling in the tx and tx
reclaim paths, and eliminates error checks in both the tx and rx
paths, simplifying the code a bit more.

mwl8k_configure_filter() passes pointers to total_flags and the
multicast address list to a workqueue function, while there is no
guarantee that those pointers will still be valid by the time the
workqueue function runs.
Solve this by passing total_flags by value, and by passing an
already built multicast address setup command packet to the workqueue
function so that we don't have to look at the multicast address list
itself outside of mwl8k_configure_filter().
Also, since ->configure_filter() can sleep now, wait synchronously
for the worker to finish.

Over time, a whole bunch of drivers have come up
with their own scheme to delay the configure_filter
operation to a workqueue. To be able to simplify
things, allow configure_filter to sleep, and add
a new prepare_multicast callback that drivers that
need the multicast address list implement. This new
callback must be atomic, but most drivers either
don't care or just calculate a hash which can be
done atomically and then uploaded to the hardware
non-atomically.
A cursory look suggests that at76c50x-usb, ar9170,
mwl8k (which is actually very broken now), rt2x00,
wl1251, wl1271 and zd1211 should make use of this
new capability.
