Prioritize EDCA by choosing the AC before anything else. Use the
fast/slow link bitmap in FW to improve the scheduling algorithm for
the multi-link scenario.
Set packet thresholds to determine if a given link is high or low
priority according to its speed. A slow link will be given high priority
if the amount of packets queued for it in the FW is lower than the
slow-threshold. Similarly, a fast link will be given high priority if
the number of its packets queued in FW is smaller than the high-threshold.
The improved algorithm:
1. Choose optimal AC according to FW utilization
2. Traversing the VIFs in a round-robin fashion, try to choose a high
priority link. Links are traversed in a round-robin fashion inside a
VIF.
3. If no high priority links are found, choose the first non-empty
(low priority) link found in the round robin.

When a link is allocated, sometimes the "freed packets" counter in FW

Previously we were only checking the single-role firmware version.

Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
The firmware type and the project number fields in the firmware
version number, cannot be checked as if they increase sequentially,
because the former is the firmware type and the latter is an internal
project number. There's no guarantee that these numbers will remain
incremental, so use WLCORE_FW_VER_IGNORE.
Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
The firmwares version string contain 5 integers. We used to consider
all the digits (except for the first one, which indicates the chip) as
linearly increasing version numbers. This is not correct, because
some of the integers indicate type of firmware (eg. single-role
vs. multi-role) or the internal project it was created for.
Besides, this varies a bit from chip to chip, so we need to make the
firmware version checks more flexible (eg. allow the lower driver to
ignore some of the integers). Additionally, we need to change the
code so that we only check for a linearly increasing number on the
fields where this actually makes sense.
