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 we stop an AGG session, we need to look at the sequence
numbers in in the private area of the ieee80211_sta struct.
This allows us to know is the queue is empty. To get access
to this private area, we use fw_id_to_mac_id that maps
sta_id (index of the STA in fw table) to ieee80211_sta.
When the STA exists in fw, but not in mac80211, we set
an ERR ptr in fw_id_to_mac_id.
But if we first set an ERR ptr to fw_id_to_mac_id, and only
then flush the queues, then we won't be able to access the
sequence numbers in ieee80211_sta from the reclaim flow.
This means that we will never be able to release an AGG
queue when a station is deleted.
So first, flush the queue. That will let the reclaim flow
call iwl_mvm_check_ratid_empty which will disable the AGG
queue as needed, and only then, remove the mapping in
fw_id_to_mac_id.

This flow happens when we get a failed single Tx response
on an AMPDU queue. In this case, the frame won't be sent
any more. So we need to move the window on the recipient
side. This is done by a BAR.
Now if we are in the following case: 10, 12 and 13 are ACKed
and 11 isn't.
10 11 12 13.
V X V V
Then, 11 will be sent 16 times as an MPDU (as oppsed to
A-MPDU). If this failed, we are entering the flow described
above. So we need to send a BAR with ssn = 12.
But in this case, the scheduler will tell us to free frames
up to 13 (included).
So, it is perfectly possible to get a failed single Tx
response on an AMPDU queue that makes the scheduler's ssn
jump by more than 1 single packet.

Recently in commit 8a964f44e0
("iwlwifi: always copy first 16 bytes of commands") we fixed
the problem that the hardware writes back to the command and
that could overwrite parts of the data that was still needed
and would thus be corrupted.
Investigating this problem more closely we found that this
write-back isn't really ordered very well with respect to
other DMA traffic. Therefore, it sometimes happened that the
write-back occurred after unmapping the command again which
is clearly an issue and could corrupt the next allocation
that goes to that spot, or (better) cause IOMMU faults.
To fix this, allocate coherent memory for the first 16 bytes
of each command, containing the write-back part, and use it
for all queues. All the dynamic DMA mappings only need to be
TO_DEVICE then. This ensures that even when the write-back
happens "too late" it can't hit memory that has been freed
or a mapping that doesn't exist any more.
Since now the actual command is no longer modified, we can
also remove CMD_WANT_HCMD and get rid of the DMA sync that
was necessary to update the scratch pointer.

Supporting 8K A-MSDU means that we need to allocate order 1
pages for every Rx packet. Even when there is no traffic.
This adds stress on the memory manager. The handling of
compound pages is also less trivial for the memory manager
and not using them will make the allocation code run faster
although I didn't really measure.
Eric also pointed out that having huge buffers with little
data in them is not very nice towards the TCP stack since
the truesize of the skb is huge. This doesn't allow TCP
to have a big Rx window.
See https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2167711/ for details.
Note that very few vendors will actually send A-MSDU.

The reason we mapped them bidirectionally was that not doing

buffer, we don't need to map the remaining buffer(s) bidi

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.

The FH hardware will always write back to the scratch field
in commands, even host commands not just TX commands, which
can overwrite parts of the command. This is problematic if
the command is re-used (with IWL_HCMD_DFL_NOCOPY) and can
cause calibration issues.
Address this problem by always putting at least the first
16 bytes into the buffer we also use for the command header
and therefore make the DMA engine write back into this.
For commands that are smaller than 16 bytes also always map
enough memory for the DMA engine to write back to.

The reason is a problem with asynchronous vs. synchronous
commands, what happens here is the following:
* TE 0x2601 is removed, the TIME_EVENT_CMD for that is async
* a new TE (will be 0x2701) is created, the TIME_EVENT_CMD
for that is sync and also uses a notification wait for the
response (to avoid another race condition)
* the response for the TE 0x2601 removal comes from the
firmware, and is handled by the notification wait handler
that's really waiting for the second response, but can't
tell the difference, we therefore see the message
"TIME_EVENT_CMD response - UID = 0x2601" instead of
"TIME_EVENT_CMD response - UID = 0x2701".
Fix this issue by making the TE removal synchronous as well,
this means that we wait for the response to that command
first, before there's any chance of sending a new one.
Also, to detect such issues more easily in the future, add
a warning to the notification handler that detects them.

For VHT, many more bandwidth changes are possible. As a first
step, stop toggling the IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 flag
in the HT capabilities and instead introduce a bandwidth field
indicating the currently usable bandwidth to transmit to the
station. Of course, make all drivers use it.
To achieve this, make ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() get
the station as an argument, rather than the new capabilities,
so it can set up the new bandwidth field.
If the station is a VHT station and VHT bandwidth is in use,
also set the bandwidth accordingly.
Doing this allows us to get rid of the supports_40mhz flag as
the HT capabilities now reflect the true capability instead of
the current setting.
While at it, also fix ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() to not
