An AP/GO may perform the channel switch slightly before its stations.
This scenario may result in packet loss, since the transmission may start
before the client is actually on a new channel. In order to prevent
potential packet loss disable tx to all the stations when the channel
switch flow starts. Clear the disable_tx bit when a station is seen on a
target channel, or after IWL_MVM_CS_UNBLOCK_TX_TIMEOUT beacons on a new
channel. In addition call ieee80211_sta_block_awake in order to inform
mac80211 that the frames for this station should be buffered.

According to the spec, GO/AP should perform the channel switch just

quota update is never called from the add_interface() callback.

This can lead to the kernel thinking the probe function succeeds while it

All boards supported by this driver could work using PIO or MMIO for accessing
registers.
This driver tries to access HW by using MMIO, and, if this fails for somewhat
reason, the driver tries to fall back to PIO mode.
MMIO-mode is straightforward on all boards.
PIO-mode is straightforward on rtl8180 only.
On rtl8185 and rtl8187se boards not all registers are directly available in PIO
mode (they are paged).
On rtl8185 there are two pages and it is known how to switch page.
PIO mode works, except for only one access to a register out of default page,
recently added by me in the initialization code with patch:
rtl818x_pci: Fix rtl8185 excessive IFS after CTS-to-self
This can be easily fixed to work in both cases (MMIO and PIO).
On rtl8187se, for a number of reasons, there is much more work to do to fix PIO
access.
PIO access is currently broken on rtl8187se, and it never worked.
This patch fixes the said register write for rtl8185 and makes the driver to
fail cleanly if PIO mode is attempted with rtl8187se boards.
While doing this, I converted also a couple of printk(KERN_ERR) to dev_err(), in
order to make checkpatch happy.

Currently the driver configures mac80211 to provide two rates for each TX frame:
One initial rate and one alternate fallback rate, each one with its retry count.
HW does not support fully this: rtl8180 doesn't have support for rate scaling at
all, and rtl8185/rtl8187SE supports it in a way that does not fit with mac80211:
The HW does automatically fall back to the next lower rate, and only a lower
limit can be specified, so the HW may TX also on rates in between the two rates
specified by mac80211. Furthermore only the total TX retry count can be
specified for each packet, while the number of TX attempts before scaling rate
can be configured only globally (not per each packet).
Currently the driver sets the HW auto rate fallback mechanism to quickly scale
rate after a couple of retries, and it uses the alternate rate requested by
mac80211 as fallback limit rate (and it does this even wrongly).
The HW indeed will behave differently than what mac80211 mandates, that is
probably undesirable, and the reported TX retry count may not refer to what
mac80211 thinks, and this could fool mac80211.
This patch makes the driver to declare to mac80211 to support only one rate
configuration for each packet, and it does disable the HW auto rate fallback
mechanism, relying only on SW and letting mac80211 to do all by itself.
This should ensure correct operation and fairness respect to mac80211.
Indeed here tests with iperf do not show significant performance differences.

HW is programmed with wrong retry count value for TX:
Mac80211 passes to driver the number of times the TX should be attempted.
The HW, instead, wants the number of time the TX should be retried if it fails
the first time (assuming we have to TX it at least one time).

Rtl8187se support has been added to the rtl818x_pci driver by extracting a lot
of information from a rtl8187se Linux staging driver included in the kernel at
the time rtl8187se support was added.
The rtl818x_pci main file has a comment that advertises this.
Recently this staging driver has been removed from the kernel, but I still feel
it can be useful as "reference" code (in case of bugs, or to implement
improvements in rtl818x_pci driver).
This one-line patch adds a comment in rtl818x_pci driver to point people
