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.

The firmware tells us if an Rx packet was beamformed or not.
Propagate this data to mac80211's rx_status.vht_flags.
The main user of this data is the radiotap header.

Use the new NAPI infrastructure added to mac80211 to get
GRO. We don't really implement NAPI since we don't have
a real poll function and we never schedule a NAPI poll.
Instead of this, we collect all the packets we got from a
single interrupt and then call napi_gro_flush().
This allows us to benefit from GRO. In half duplex medium
like WiFi, its main advantage is that it reduces the number
of TCP Acks, hence improving the TCP Rx performance.
Since we call the Rx path with a spinlock held, remove
the might_sleep mention from the op_mode's API.

This will allow to get sniffer captures with correct
settings for these HT / VHT capabilities.
Also set the corresponding HAVE_MCS / VHT_KNOWN bits in
the registration to mac80211.

This patch adds a cipher scheme support to extend a set of
the supported ciphers. The driver reads a cipher scheme list TLV
from FW image and passes it to mac80211 on hw registration.
After the cipher schemes are registered the driver handles key
installation and Tx/Rx calls related to the new ciphers.

Instead of reporting the maximum signal strength and the
antenna bitmap in the antenna field (which is really just
for radiotap and defined differently), report the signal
strength values per chain and set the chain bitmap.

In order to avoid NIC destruction due to high temperature,
CT kill will power down the NIC.
To avoid this, thermal throttling will decrease throughput
to prevent the NIC from reaching the temperature at which
CT kill is performed.

For the firmware to know when DTIM beacons arrive
we have to program the DTIM time in TSF and system
time in the MAC context. Since mac80211 now tracks
the different times (on demand), this becomes easy.

With new transports coming up, move to threaded
interrupt handling now. This has the advantage
that we can use the same locking scheme with all
different transports we may need to implement.
Note that the TX path obviously still runs in a
tasklet, so some spin_lock() calls need to change
to spin_lock_bh() calls to properly lock out the
TX path.
In my test on a Calpella platform this has no
impact on throughput or latency.
Also add lockdep annotations to avoid lockups due
to catch sending synchronous commands or using
locks that connect with them from the irq thread.
