Adding the bluetooth full concurrency support for WiFi/BT combo devices.
Driver should configure uCode to operate in "full concurrency" mode (via
LUT) if both conditions are met:
- Antenna Coupling is more than 35dB
- WiFi Channel Inhibition Request is hornored by BT Core
Currently, there is no antenna coupling information provided by uCode;
use module parameter to specified the antenna coupling in dB.
When in "full concurrency" mode, driver need to download different LUT
to uCode while sending bt configuration command; also, driver need to

Currently the driver will try to protect all frames,
which leads to a lot of odd things like sending an
RTS with a zeroed RA before multicast frames, which
is clearly bogus.
In order to fix all of this, we need to take a step
back and see what we need to achieve:
* we need RTS/CTS protection if requested by
the AP for the BSS, mac80211 tells us this
* in that case, CTS-to-self should only be
enabled when mac80211 tells us
* additionally, as a hardware workaround, on
some devices we have to protect aggregated
frames with RTS
To achieve the first two items, set up the RXON
accordingly and set the protection required flag
in the transmit command when mac80211 requests
protection for the frame.
To achieve the last item, set the rate-control
RTS-requested flag for all stations that we have
aggregation sessions with, and set the protection
required flag when sending aggregated frames (on
those devices where this is required).
Since otherwise bugs can occur, do not allow the
user to override the RTS-for-aggregation setting
from sysfs any more.
Finally, also clean up the way all these flags get
set in the driver and move everything into the
device-specific functions.

When receive tx complete with status is TX_STATUS_FAIL_RFKILL_FLUSH,
issue REPLY_TXFIFO_FLUSH command to uCode to flush out all the tx frames

1. drop = true: frame drop is ok, issue REPLY_TXFIFO_FLUSH host command
to uCode to drop all the frames in tx fifo queues; then return the
control back to mac80211
2. drop = false: wait for either all the frames in tx fifo queues been
transmitted, or timeout; then return the control back to mac80211
If the flush request coming from mac80211, mac80211 will make sure there
are no additional frames push down to driver before flush operation is
completed.

The rate table in the bcast LQ is computed only when the station is
allocated, and chooses the lowest rate for the band. Because of when this
occurs, this is the 2.4 GHz band and uses the 0x420a (CCK, 1 Mbps) rate. In 5 GHz
beaconing mode, this rate will prevent beacons from being sent and any other
packets from being received.
We can fix this by re-initializing the bcast station's LQ command when the
channel is changed.

Currently, the broadcast station is managed along
with the interface type, rather than always being
present. That leads to a bug with injection -- it
is currently not possible to inject frames when
the only virtual interface is a monitor, because
in that the required broadcast station is missing.
Additionally, allocating and deallocating the
broadcast station's LQ all the time is wasteful,
and the code to support this is fairly complex.
So this changes completely the way we manage the
broadcast station. Rather than manage it along
with any interface, we now allocate it when we
bring the device up, and remove it again when we
bring the device down. When we bring the device
up, we don't immediately program the broadcast
station into it, instead we just mark it active
and rely on the next restore cycle to upload it
to the device. This works because an unassociated
RXON is always required at least once to set up
device parameters, which implies a reprogramming
of stations into the device.
As we now manage all stations properly, there no
longer is a need for forcing a clearing of them
via iwl_clear_ucode_stations(), which can become
a lot simpler.
