20d3b64752 iwlwifi: clean up coding style in PCIe transport
Mostly clean up indentation around parentheses
after if, function calls, etc. and also a few
unneeded line breaks and some other things.

Resolved the iwlwifi conflict with mainline using 3-way diff posted
by John Linville and Stephen Rothwell.  In 'net' we added a bug
fix to make iwlwifi report a more accurate skb->truesize but this
conflicted with RX path changes that happened meanwhile in net-next.

In e1000e a conflict arose in the validation code for settings of
adapter->itr.  'net-next' had more sophisticated logic so that
logic was used.

ed90542b0c iwlwifi: fix skb truesize underestimation
By default, iwlwifi uses order-1 pages (8 KB) to store incoming frames,
but doesnt say so in skb->truesize.

This makes very possible to exhaust kernel memory since these skb evade
normal socket memory accounting.

As struct ieee80211_hdr is going to be pulled before calling IP stack,
there is no need to use dev_alloc_skb() to reserve NET_SKB_PAD bytes.
alloc_skb() is ok in this driver, allowing more tailroom.

Pull beginning of frame in skb header, in the hope we can reuse order-1
pages in the driver immediately for small frames and reduce their
truesize to the minimum (linear skbs)

bf8440e6a6 iwlwifi: improve TX cache footprint
Having cmd[], meta[] and skbs[] as separate arrays
in the TX queue structure is cache inefficient as
we need the data for a given entry together.

To improve this, create an array with these three
members (allocate meta as part of that struct) so
we have the data we need together located together
improving cache footprint.

The downside is that we need to allocate a lot of
memory in one chunk, about 10KiB (on 64-bit) which
isn't very efficient.

That way it isn't needed in hw_params, which
is shared data. It also isn't really what we

better just 4k/8k, so configure a bool and

2fdfc476cf iwlwifi: move ucode error log reporting to op_mode
Error log reporting does not belong to the
transport layer, but to the op_mode loading
the ucode, as it is the entity which knows
about the ucode loaded, and what the error
information means.

Move device logging pointers from the
transport layer to op_mode.

With this change, transport layer only
reports an error to the op_mode, which will
figure out what to do with the error. This
causes the driver to now dump out error logs
when the command queue is stuck as well.

Also, move the debugfs entry for event logs
out of the transport layer and into op_mode.

0c19744c34 iwlwifi: process multiple frames per RXB
The flow handler (hardware) can put multiple
frames into a single RX buffer. To handle
this, walk the RX buffer and check if there
are multiple valid packets in it.

To let the upper layer handle this correctly
introduce rxb_offset() which is needed when
we pass pages to mac80211 -- we need to know
the offset into the page there.

Also change the page handling scheme to use
refcounting. Anyone who needs a page will
"steal" it, which marks it as having been
used & refcounts it. The RX handler then has
to free its own reference and must not reuse
the page.

Finally, do not set the bit asking the FH to
give us each packet in a single buffer. This
really enables the feature.

Now the op_mode has a fw pointer, and

that will move later.

pointers, some more changes were needed.

From now on, the transport layer in charge of providing access to the
device. So change all the driver to give a pointer to the transport
to all the low level functions that actually access the device.

a591697730 iwlwifi: Connect IDI transport to driver.
This patch connects IDI transport to driver. It does so
by using a number of ifdefs at this stage.
IDI is a new transport that is under development.

ed6a380340 iwlwifi: add fw_alive to transport layer API, kill tx_start
Define a new handler in the transport layer API: fw_alive.
Move iwl_reset_ict to this new handler, and move the content

b49ba04a3a iwlwifi: fix PCI-E transport "inta" race
When an interrupt comes in, we read the reason
bits and collect them into "trans_pcie->inta".
This happens with the spinlock held. However,
there's a bug resetting this variable -- that
happens after the spinlock has been released.
This means that it is possible for interrupts
to be missed if the reset happens after some
other interrupt reasons were already added to
the variable.

I found this by code inspection, looking for a
reason that we sometimes see random commands
time out. It seems possible that this causes
such behaviour, but I can't say for sure right
now since it happens extremely infrequently on
my test systems.
