rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a structure is
carried out before storing a pointer to that structure. However, in the
case that NULL is assigned there's no structure to initialize so using
RCU_INIT_POINTER instead is safe and more efficient.

Now that mac80211 calls pre_rcu_remove and we set the
fw_id_to_mac_id pointer to -ENOENT before the station is
removed, we don't need to set fw_id_to_mac_id to -EINVAL
when the station is really removed.
Leave fw_id_to_mac_id to be -ENOENT which will let the
drain worker (iwl_mvm_sta_drained_wk) know that this station
is not to be drained.
We don't need to drain this station since it is our AP in
managed mode and we flush all its frames synchronously
anyway.
Setting the AP station to -EINVAL could lead to confusion
since internal stations are also reserved with -EINVAL,
this confusion showed up in the logs as:

When shadow registers are enabled, then need_update never needs

that really needs to do it (iwl_pcie_rxq_inc_wr_ptr) and also
separate the check when it woke up. While at it, convert it to
bool.
This also clarifies the locking and means the irq_lock needs to
no longer be held for any such updates.
The irq_lock also doesn't have to be held for restocking since
everything else locks the RX queue properly, so remove that and
finally disentangle the two locks entirely so there aren't any

Use the new NAPI infrastructure added to mac80211 to get
GRO. We don't really implement NAPI since we don't have
a real poll function and we never schedule a NAPI poll.
Instead of this, we collect all the packets we got from a
single interrupt and then call napi_gro_flush().
This allows us to benefit from GRO. In half duplex medium
like WiFi, its main advantage is that it reduces the number
of TCP Acks, hence improving the TCP Rx performance.
Since we call the Rx path with a spinlock held, remove
the might_sleep mention from the op_mode's API.

A hardware bug had been discovered on 7260 / 3160 and 7265
and the workaround for this bug is to force the NIC to stay
awake as long as we have host commands in flight. This
workaround has been introduced for all NICs in a previous
patch:
b943949105 ("iwlwifi: pcie: keep the NIC awake when commands are in flight")
In newer NICs, this bug is solved, so we can let the NIC go
to sleep even when we send commands. The hardware will wake
up when we increment the scheduler write pointer.
Make the workaround conditional to only use it on affected
hardware.

Today, the driver logic looks for the conditions to disable
power management albeit power management should be enabled
in a very few distinct cases.
This patch changes the driver logic to enable power
management once the required conditions met.
While at it, make some housekeeping and support a few
additional use cases:
a) Add support for a standalone p2p client:
Power management should be enabled for a P2P client
MAC only if the firmware supports it (TLV flag is set).
Instead we used the DCM flag, therefore we didn't cover
use cases that did not include the DCM flag.
b) Add support to Same-Channel-Mode (SCM):
If both clients share the same channel (SCM), and there
are no other active vifs in the system, power management
should be enabled only if the firmware supports this
(TLV flag is set).
c) Fix power management logic for GO/AP:
Today, when we detect an active GO / AP MAC - we disable
power management for all the vifs altogether.
Actually, the correct behavior is to enable power
management on a client if on a different channel
(based on the firmware capabilities).
d) Housekeeping - Along with that, this patch includes some
code-reorganizing: Today the logic of disabling power is
scattered across several functions, specifically in the
iterator. For the sake of both readability and
scalability, we moved this logic to its applicable
function, leaving the iterator gather information only.
Furthermore, as power management is a MAC-related
attribute, we moved the power management member to the
iwl_mvm_vif structure.

In case of system low latency configure passive scan to be fragmented.
Set the following scan parameters for both immediate and scheduled scan:
- passive scan fragment duration = 20ms
- out-of-channel time = 70ms
- suspend time = 105ms
Restructure channel's active/passive dwell time configuration to better
suit the above change.
The idea is that under low latency traffic passive scan is fragmented,
i.e. that dwell on a particular channel will be fragmented. Each
fragment dwell time is 20ms and fragments period is 105ms. Skipping to
next channel will be delayed by the same period (105ms). So suspend_time
parameter describing both fragments and channels skipping periods is set
to 105ms. This value is chosen so that overall passive scan duration
will not be too long. Max_out_time in this case is set to 70ms, so for
active scanning operating channel will be left for 70ms while for
passive still for 20ms (fragment dwell).

When the firmware asserts, the driver will dump the firmware
state to an internal buffer. This buffer is kept aside until
it is dumped through debugfs. Once an external application
fetched the data, the buffer is freed and a new buffer can
be allocated in case another assert occurs.
A udev event is sent to trigger an external application.
A simple rule like:
DRIVER=="iwlwifi", ACTION=="change", RUN+="/sbin/dump_sram.sh"
can fetch the data from debugfs.
Here is my dump_sram.sh:
phyname=$(basename ${DEVPATH})
date=$(date +%F_%H_%M)
filename=/var/log/iwl-sram-${phyname}-${date}.bin
cat /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/${phyname}/iwlwifi/iwlmvm/fw_error_dump > ${filename}
The current SRAM size is 80KB so, currently:
$ ls -lh iwl-sram-phy0-2014-03-16_13_14.bin
-rw-r--r-- 1 emmanuel emmanuel 81K Mar 16 13:15 iwl-sram-phy0-2014-03-16_13_14.bin
