Unfortunately, advertising P2P_DEVICE support was a little
premature, a number of issues came up in testing and have
been fixed for 3.10. Rather than try to backport all the
different fixes, disable P2P_DEVICE support in the drivers
using it. For iwlmvm that implies disabling P2P completely
as it can't support P2P operation w/o P2P Device.

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.

The patch is an optimization, that eliminates unnecessary binding
context switching and allows the P2P Device MAC to use the same channel
as an existing netdev interface.
For each ROC call, check if there is already a channel/phy context that
can be used for the P2P Device. If such channel is found, unbind
the P2P Device from its current phy context, and bind it to the already
used channel/phy context. In case that the phy context is shared,
and there is a need to change it, create a new phy context, unbind and
create a new binding.

In current implementation, the phy context is tightly coupled
with the channel context. This complicates the possibility of
using the same phy context for both netdev interfaces and the P2P
Device interface. To loosen this coupling:
1. Manage all the phy contexts in the mvm op mode, and only save
the phy context id in the chanctx memory.
2. Reference count the phy contexts and free them only when they
are not longer used (both by mac80211 and P2P Device).

With remote wake, the firmware creates a TCP connection
and sends some configurable data on it, until a special
TCP data packet from the server is received that triggers
a wakeup. The configuration is a bit tricky because it is
based on packet pattern matching but this is hidden in
the driver and the exposed API in cfg80211 is just based
on the required TCP connection parameters.

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.

When stations are removed while packets are in the queue,
we drain the queues first, and then remove the stations.
If this happens in AP mode while the interface is removed
the MAC context might be removed from the firmware before
we removed the station(s), resulting in a SYSASSERT 3421.
This is because we remove the MAC context from the FW in
stop_ap(), but only flush the station drain work later in
remove_interface().
Refactor the code a bit to have a common MAC context
removal preparation first to solve this.
