There are a few places that can call the function
iwl_mvm_mac_get_queues_mask() instead of open-coding the
equivalent, so do that. This requires changing it to return
the multicast queue as part of the bitmap, which broke GO
mode because including it in the broadcast station queues
seems to confuse the firmware, so work around that.
Also, the API defines that the CAB queue shouldn't be
included in the TFD queue mask, adjust the comment
accordingly (not a bug).

The firmware would like to have a MAC context (unassoc)
before the AP station is removed (we do this) but would
like to keep the BSSID until after it is removed, so we
need to send two commands - one with the BSSID before
and one without the BSSID after.
In order to do this, we need to store the BSSID as it
will have been cleared by mac80211 by the time we get
notified of the disassociation. Also pass it around as
an override to the various functions needing it, and
keep taking it from the mac80211 data otherwise. This
avoids having to keep track of the BSSID in all modes.

Configuring the hw scheduler during queue enablement is done by
writing the appropriate values to the scheduler peripherals, and
it is essentially the same for all buses.
Whenever writing is done via the standard iwl_write_prph, we can
avoid duplicating the code for each bus. Those operations are
queue deactivation, RA/TID mapping, chain-building settings,
enabling/disabling aggregations and activating/deactivating the
TX FIFOs.

With a significant number of deployed APs, enabling uAPSD leads to the
AP never using aggregation sessions (likely due to the complexities
involved in handling uAPSD in those.) This obviously results in a large
drop in throughput with such APs.
On the other hand, uAPSD can result in some power consumption benefits,
but for now just disable it to get performance with affected APs back
up.

disable CT Kill if it was enabled.
Additionally, since we rely on iwl_mvm_tt_handler() to exit CT kill
when in test mode, call iwl_mvm_exit_ctkill() in that function if the
temperature is low again. Also make the iwl_mvm_enter_ctkill() and
iwl_mvm_exit_ctkill() return if called when not necessary anymore
(e.g. when iwl_mvm_exit_ctkill() is called when we're not in CT-kill).

According to RCU_INIT_POINTER()'s block comment 3.a, it can be used if
"3. The referenced data structure has already been exposed to readers either
at compile time or via rcu_assign_pointer() -and-
a. You have not made -any- reader-visible changes to this structure since
then".
This case fulfills the conditions above because between the rcu_dereference()
call (cvif = rcu_dereference(ar->beacon_iter);) and the rcu_assign_pointer()
call there is no update of the "cvif" variable.
Therefore, this patch makes the replacement.
The following Coccinelle semantic patch was used:
@@
identifier v;
@@
v = rcu_dereference(...);
... when != rcu_dereference(...);
when != v = ...;
when != (<+...v...+>)++;
when != \(memcpy\|memset\)(...);
(
- rcu_assign_pointer
+ RCU_INIT_POINTER
(..., v);
|
if(...) {
... when != v = ...;
- rcu_assign_pointer
+ RCU_INIT_POINTER
(..., v);
... when any
}
)
Because there are cases where between a “rcu_dereference()” call and a
“rcu_assign_pointer()” call might be updates of the value that interests us,
the Coccinelle semantic patch ignores them and replaces with
"RCU_INIT_POINTER()" only when the update is not happening.
