When adding a TDLS station, allocate 4 new queues for it. Configure them
to FW and enable them. On station removal, drain the queues if needed
and disable them when empty.
Make sure to flush all packets in the private queues of TDLS stations in
the mac80211 flush() callback.

After the corresponding mac80211 patch, we can now report the airtime
used for each transmitted packet and mac80211 will be able to implement
WMM-AC with that information.
To support WMM-AC in the driver then, report the airtime and advertise
support.

In case of traffic on multiple TIDs where one is aggregated
and the other is not RS would toggle between considering
traffic vs. the station as aggregated and not aggregated.
Instead consider the sta state as aggregated as long as
there's at least one TID aggregated.
This limitation is because the rates table is kept per
station and not per TID.

Unify all the functions that handle the per-interface broadcast
station and make them have mvm and vif parameters. While at it,
add a new function to allocate the broadcast station instead of
open-coding it, and make the combined alloc+send and free+send
functions use the alloc/free & send functions.

An AP/GO may perform the channel switch slightly before its stations.
This scenario may result in packet loss, since the transmission may start
before the client is actually on a new channel. In order to prevent
potential packet loss disable tx to all the stations when the channel
switch flow starts. Clear the disable_tx bit when a station is seen on a
target channel, or after IWL_MVM_CS_UNBLOCK_TX_TIMEOUT beacons on a new
channel. In addition call ieee80211_sta_block_awake in order to inform
mac80211 that the frames for this station should be buffered.

command. This flag, when set, disables tx to the STA.
Provide an API (iwl_mvm_sta_modify_disable_tx) to modify this flag, which

Newer firmware will support uAPSD clients in AP/GO mode, so complete
the driver support for it. The way it works is described in comments
in the code, but basically the driver just has to pass down all the
mac80211 requests and do accounting on agg/non-agg queues properly.
For older firmware, this doesn't change anything as it ignores the
fields used by the new firmware, and we only advertise uAPSD support
when the firmware does.

query the firmware when suspending, that's more efficient. As

Move the counter for non-AMPDU frames to mvm. It is needed
for the drain flow which happens once the ieee80211_sta has
been freed, so keeping it in iwl_mvm_sta which is embed into
ieee80211_sta is not a good idea.
Also, since its purpose it to remove the STA in the fw only
after all the frames for this station have exited the shared
Tx queues, we need to decrement it in the reclaim flow. This
flow can happen after ieee80211_sta has been removed, which
means that we have no iwl_mvm_sta there. So we can't know
what is the vif type. Hence, we know audit these frames for
all the vif types.
In order to avoid spawning sta_drained_wk all the time, we
now check that we are in a flow in which draining might
happen - only when mvmsta is NULL. This is better than
previous code that would spawn sta_drained_wk all the time
in AP mode.

mac80211 tells us when we need to dump the frames from the
AGG queue instead of releasing them as single MPDUs.
Being able to differentiate between the different cases
(IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_STOP_*) allows us to handle races better.
When the station is removed, mac80211 asks to flush and
removes the station right away.
This allows to avoid a case where we still have frames in
AGG queues, but the station has been remove already.
Note that we can have frames on the shared queues, but this
is not a problem: the station in the fw will be kept until
all the frames on the shared queues have been drained.
AGG queues are a special case since they are dynamically
allocated.

In managed mode, the HT/VHT capabilities aren't set when
the station is initially added, so update the station
when it is marked associated. In AP/GO mode, the station
will typically be added with full capabilities today,
but an upcoming change in hostapd may mean a similar
scenario as for managed mode, therefore do the update
unconditionally.
