Lmac sched scan supports partial scans, so we can set some channels to be
scanned on every scan iteration and others to be scanned only on some
iterations. Currently we set all channels to be scanned every iteration,
but still have some configuration of which iterations should be partial
and which should be full.
Remove all partial/full scan configuration to reduce confusions.

Family 8000 products has 2 embedded processors, the first
known as LMAC (lower MAC) and implements the functionality from
previous products, the second one is known as UMAC (upper MAC)
and is used mainly for driver offloads as well as new features.
The UMAC is typically “less” real-time than the LMAC and is used
for higher level controls.
The UMAC's code/data size is estimated to be in the mega-byte arena,
taking into account the code it needs to replace in the driver and
the set of new features.
In order to allow the UMAC to execute code that is bigger than its code
memory, we allow the UMAC embedded processor to page out code pages on
DRAM.
When the device is slave on the bus(SDIO) the driver saves the UMAC's
image pages in blocks of 32K in the DRAM and sends the layout of the
pages to the FW. When the FW wants load / unload pages, it creates an
interrupt, and the driver uploads / downloads the page to an address in
the a specific address on the device's memory.
The driver can support up to 1 MB of pages.
Add paging mechanism for the UMAC on SDIO in order to allow the program to
use a larger virtual space while using less physical memory on the device

As a preperation for multiple RX queues change the RBD
allocation model.
The new model includes a background allocator. The allocator is
called by the interrupt handler when there are two released
buffers by the queue, and the allocator starts allocating eight
pages per request.
When the queue has released 8 pages it tries claiming the
request. If the pages are not ready - it keeps claiming.
This new model should make sure that RBDs are always available
across the multiple queues.
The RBDs are transferred between the allocator and the queue.
The queue moves the free RBDs upon freeing them to the allocator.
The allocator moves them back to the queue's possession when the
request is claimed.
The allocator has an initial pool to make sure there are always RBDs
available for the request completion.
Release of the buffers at exit is done per pools - the allocator
frees its own initial pool and the queue frees its own pool.
Existing code refactor -
-Queue's initial pool is the size of the queue only as the allocation
of the new buffers no longer uses this pool.
-Removal of replenish background work, and replenish calls in the
interrupt handler and restock().
-The replenish() and the rxq used_list are used only during
initialization.
-Moved page allocation to a new function for code reuse.
New code -
Allocator code - new structure and functions.
Interrupt handler uses the allocator functions for replenishing buffers.
Reuse of the restock() method.

The firmware debug infrastructure allows the user to
provide a firmware that will toggle a few registers to
configure the debugging capabilities.
On certain devices, certain operations are forbidden.
Executing a forbidden operation will cause the hardware to
die in a way that only driver unload / load will bring it
back to life.
Fortunately, there is a way to know in advance if those
operations will be accepted by the device. This is where
the new PRPH_BLOCKBIT operation plays its role. If the bit
X from PRPH register Y is set, then we should prevent any
further register configuration. When that happens, drop a
line in the kernel log since this is really an error state:
the user won't have his device configured as he expected.
Add operations that will be used in the future:
INDIRECT_ASSIGN, INDIRECT_SETBIT, and INDIRECT_CLEARBIT.
Other debugging configurations (such as destination
configuration for the monitor) will take place in any case.

Note that this is not possible for unicast frames, as a TDLS

the group 1 to take advantage of the header building in the low-
level transport.

As the firmware is slowly running out of command IDs and grouping of
commands is desirable anyway, the firmware is extending the command
header from 4 bytes to 8 bytes to introduce a group (in place of the
former flags field, since that's always 0 on commands and thus can
be easily used to distinguish between the two.
In order to support this most easily in the driver widen the command
command ID used in the command sending functions and encode the new
values (group and version) in the ID. That way existing code doesn't
have to be changed (since the higher bits are 0 automatically) and
newer code can easily use the new ID generation function to create a
value to use in place of just the command ID.
