Sometimes when command timeout occurs due to a firmware or
hardware bug, there may be some synchronous commands in command
queue. These commands are never downloaded to firmware causing
hung task warnings. This patch replaces wait_event_interruptible
call with wait_event_interruptible_timeout to fix the issue.

During extended scan, SCAN report event is always followed by
command response. Sometimes It is observed that command response
is processed before SCAN report which leads to a crash, because
current command node is cleared while handling the response.
This patch makes sure that driver's main thread gives priority
to events over command responses.

Some fields are missing from the event mailbox
struct definitions, which cause issues when
trying to handle some events.
Add the missing fields in order to align the
struct size (without adding actual support
for the new fields).

Sometimes the firmware sends a dummy packet event while we are in PLT
mode. This doesn't make sense, it's a firmware bug. Fix this by
ignoring dummy packet events when we're PLT mode.

Fix a potential memory leak in function rsi_set_channel() that is used to

directly exits the function in case of an error, thus leaving an already

The per rate stats should be cleared when aggregation state changes
to avoid making rate scale decisions based on throughput figures which
were collected prior to the aggregation state change and are now stale.
While at it make sure any clearing of the per rate stats will get logged.

Allow switching back to legacy Tx columns so we'll stop doing
HT/VHT in case we're far from the AP. Stop active aggregation when
making a deciding to stay in a legacy column.
Despite having low legacy rates in the LQ table lower entries
it doesn't help much in case we're doing aggregations as the
aggregation was being transmitted in the initial rate of the table.
This should help traffic stalls when far from the AP.

After being idle for a long time (>5sec) the rs statistics
will be stale so we prefer to reset rs and start from legacy
rates again. This gives better results when the attenuation
increased signficantly (e.g. we got further from the AP) and
after a while we start Tx
Note that the first Tx after the idle period will still go out
in the old modulation and rate but this seemed a simpler approach
compared to adding a timer or modifying mac80211 for this.
The negative impact is negligble as we'll recover quickly.

Change the down/upscale decision logic a bit to be based
on different success ratio thresholds. This fixes the implementation
compared to the rate scale algorithm which was planned to yield
optimal results. Also fix a case where a lower rate wasn't explored
despite being a potential for better throughput.
While at it rewrite rs_get_rate_action to be more clear and clean.

The selection of the max expected throughput for a column
didn't take into account the maximal allowed rate for the current

mimo_delim was always set to 0 instead of pointing to
the first SISO entry after MIMO rates.
This can cause keep transmitting in MIMO even when we shouldn't.
For example when the peer is requesting static SMPS.

If we have no beacon data before association, delay smart FIFO
enablement until after we have this data.
Not doing so can cause association failures in extremely silent
environments (usually only a shielded box/room) as beacon RX is
not sent to the host immediately, and then the association time
event ends without the host receiving any beacon even though it
was on the air - it's just stuck on the FIFO.
