This adds an API to mac80211 to handle scheduling of TXQs and changes the
interface between driver and mac80211 for TXQ handling as follows:
- The wake_tx_queue callback interface no longer includes the TXQ. Instead,
the driver is expected to retrieve that from ieee80211_next_txq()
- Two new mac80211 functions are added: ieee80211_next_txq() and
ieee80211_schedule_txq(). The former returns the next TXQ that should be
scheduled, and is how the driver gets a queue to pull packets from. The
latter is called internally by mac80211 to start scheduling a queue, and
the driver is supposed to call it to re-schedule the TXQ after it is
finished pulling packets from it (unless the queue emptied).
The ath9k and ath10k drivers are changed to use the new API.

Currently the restart flow enables RX back, and then proceeds
to tear down RX and TX aggregations.
The TX aggregation tear down calls synchronize_net(), which
waits for packet receiving to be done.
This is done for every session, while RX processing is already
active, and in some reproductions it takes up to 3 seconds.
Add a call once in the restart_work, before we have traffic
active again, and remove the subsequent calls when tearing
down the aggregation.
This requires to move down the code that turns off the
reconfig flag in order to be able to test it in
_ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session().

There's no need to re-lookup the data structures now that
we actually get them immediately with from_timer(), just
avoid that. The struct has to be valid anyway, otherwise
the timer object itself would no longer be valid, and we
can't have a different version of the struct since only a
single session per TID is permitted.

When deleting a station or otherwise tearing down all aggregation
sessions, make sure to delete requested but not yet started ones,
to avoid the following scenario:
* session is requested, added to tid_start_tx[]
* ieee80211_ba_session_work() runs, gets past BLOCK_BA check
* ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions() runs, locks &sta->ampdu_mlme.mtx,
e.g. while deleting the station - deleting all active sessions
* ieee80211_ba_session_work() continues since tear down flushes it, and
calls ieee80211_tx_ba_session_handle_start() for the new session, arms
the timer for it
* station deletion continues to __cleanup_single_sta() and frees the
session struct, while the timer is armed

In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to
all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer()
to pass the timer pointer explicitly.
This removes the tid mapping array and expands the tid structures to
add a pointer back to the station, along with the tid index itself.

Since drv_wake_tx_queue() is normally called in the TX path, which
is already in an RCU critical section, we should call it the same
way in the aggregation code path, so if the driver expects to be
able to use RCU, it'll already be protected without having to enter
a nested critical section.
Additionally, disable soft-IRQs, since not doing so could cause
issues in a driver that relies on them already being disabled like
in the other path.

When starting or stopping an aggregation session, one of the steps
is that the driver calls back to mac80211 that the start/stop can
proceed. This is handled by queueing up a fake SKB and processing
it from the normal iface/sdata work. Since this isn't flushed when
disassociating, the following race is possible:
* associate
* start aggregation session
* driver callback
* disassociate
* associate again to the same AP
* callback processing runs, leading to a WARN_ON() that
the TID hadn't requested aggregation
If the second association isn't to the same AP, there would only
be a message printed ("Could not find station: <addr>"), but the
same race could happen.
Fix this by not going the whole detour with a fake SKB etc. but
simply looking up the aggregation session in the driver callback,
marking it with a START_CB/STOP_CB bit and then scheduling the
regular aggregation work that will now process these bits as well.
This also simplifies the code and gets rid of the whole problem
with allocation failures of said skb, which could have left the
session in limbo.

Since mac80211 doesn't currently support TSIDs 8-15 which can
only be used after QoS TSPEC negotiation (and not even after
WMM negotiation), reject attempts to set up aggregation
sessions for them, which might confuse drivers. In mac80211
we do correctly handle that, but the TSIDs should never get
used anyway, and drivers might not be able to handle it.

mac80211's software queues were designed to work
very closely with device tx queues. They are
required to make use of 802.11 packet aggregation
easily and efficiently.
Due to the way 802.11 aggregation is designed it
only makes sense to keep fair queuing as close to
hardware as possible to reduce induced latency and
inertia and provide the best flow responsiveness.
This change doesn't translate directly to
immediate and significant gains. End result
depends on driver's induced latency. Best results
can be achieved if driver keeps its own tx
queue/fifo fill level to a minimum.

Requires software tx queueing and fast-xmit support. For good
performance, drivers need frag_list support as well. This avoids the
need for copying data of aggregated frames. Running without it is only
supported for debugging purposes.
To avoid performance and packet size issues, the rate control module or
driver needs to limit the maximum A-MSDU size by setting
max_rc_amsdu_len in struct ieee80211_sta.

As we're running out of hardware capability flags pretty quickly,
convert them to use the regular test_bit() style unsigned long
bitmaps.
This introduces a number of helper functions/macros to set and to
test the bits, along with new debugfs code.
The occurrences of an explicit __clear_bit() are intentional, the
drivers were never supposed to change their supported bits on the
fly. We should investigate changing this to be a per-frame flag.

This allows drivers to request per-vif and per-sta-tid queues from which
they can pull frames. This makes it easier to keep the hardware queues
short, and to improve fairness between clients and vifs.
The task of scheduling packet transmission is left up to the driver -
queueing is controlled by mac80211. Drivers can only dequeue packets by
calling ieee80211_tx_dequeue. This makes it possible to add active queue
management later without changing drivers using this code.
This can also be used as a starting point to implement A-MSDU
aggregation in a way that does not add artificially induced latency.

If a peer or some local agent (rate control, ...) decides to start
an aggregation session but doesn't support HT (which also implies
QoS), reject it.
This is mostly a corner case as such peers normally won't try to
use block-ack sessions and rate control wouldn't start them, but
technically QoS stations could request it according to the spec.
However, since drivers don't really support such non-HT sessions
it's better to reject them.
Also, while at it, move the tracing for TX sessions earlier so it
captures the error cases as well.

The rate control locking caused a potential deadlock here due to the
locks being acquired in different orders, so that change cannot yet
be applied. However, there's no fundamental reason for this code to
hold the sta->lock while transmitting frames.
Clearly it's better not to hold the lock for longer periods of time,
which can happen here since we call all the way down to the driver.
Change the code a bit to not hold it while doing that.

In TDLS (e.g., TDLS off-channel) there is a requirement for
some drivers to supply an unused TID between the AP and the
device to the FW, to allow sending PTI requests and to allow
the FW to aggregate on a specific TID for better throughput.
To ensure that the allocated TID is indeed unused, this patch
introduces an API for blocking the driver from TXing on that
TID.
