b43: Optimize DMA buffers
In the old days we used one slot per frame. But when we changed that to 2,
we didn't raise the overall slot count. Which resulted in an effective
division of two to the number of slots.
Double the number of TX slots, so we have an effective hardware queue
of 128 frames per QoS queue.
Also optimize the TX header cache handling. We don't need a cached TX header
for slots that will never carry an actual header.
So we reduce the memory consumption of the cache by 50%.
So as a net result we end up with more or less the same memory usage before
and after this patch (except a few tiny meta structures), but have twice
the number of TX slots available.

When iwlwifi runs on IOMMU, IOMMU generates a lot of PTE write faults
because PTE write bit is not set on some of PTE's. This is because iwlwifi
driver calls DMA mapping with PCI_DMA_TODEVICE which is read only in mapping
PTE. But iwlwifi device actually writes to the mapped page to update its contents.
This issue is not exposed in swiotlb. But VT-d hardware can capture this fault and
stop the fault transaction.

iwlwifi: Fix and rework Kconfig file
Fixes:
- iwlwifi is an optional driver and should thus not default to 'y'.
- 3945 now depends on IWLCORE.
Rework:
- There is not a case when IWLCORE should not be selected. At the same time
the driver does not use IWLWIFI or IWLCORE. We can just merge the usage of
these two. With IWLWIFI being the driver name we proceed to use just it and
replace instances of IWLCORE with it. The module name does not change
and is still iwlcore.
- Both IWLAGN and IWL3945 are selecting FW_LOADER, we can thus just move
this up to one select when IWLWIFI is selected.
- IWL5000 now supports Intel Wireless Wifi 100, 6000, and 6050 series.
- Now that 3945 depends on IWLWIFI we can also indicate its dependency on
MAC80211_LEDS and LEDS_CLASS at this level.
- IWLAGN_LEDS is not used by driver - remove it.
- IWLAGN_SPECTRUM_MEASUREMENT actually depends on IWLWIFI as it forms part
of iwlcore module. Move this config up in Kconfig to reflect that and also
change name to IWLWIFI_SPECTRUM_MEASUREMENT.
- CONFIG_IWLWIFI_RFKILL is used by iwlagn as well as iwl3945, add text to
description that indicates this.
- CONFIG_IWL3945_RFKILL does not exist - remove usage from driver.
- Add "iwlagn" to end of description of IWLAGN to help people understand
what iwlagn means in rest of Kconfig text.
- Add "iwl3945" to end of description of IWL3945 to help people understand
what iwlagn means in rest of Kconfig text.
- Change IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS description to indicate that only iwlagn supports
it (for now).

The reason to do this is to better separate the state machines, and have

This is quite some churn, especially because I split sdata->u.sta into
sdata->u.mgd and sdata->u.ibss, but I think it's easier to maintain that
way. I've also shuffled around some code -- null function sending is only

mac80211: fix aggregation for hardware with ampdu queues
Hardware with AMPDU queues currently has broken aggregation.
This patch fixes it by making all A-MPDUs go over the regular AC queues,
but keeping track of the hardware queues in mac80211. As a first rough
version, it actually stops the AC queue for extended periods of time,
which can be removed by adding buffering internal to mac80211, but is
currently not a huge problem because people rarely use multiple TIDs
that are in the same AC (and iwlwifi currently doesn't operate as AP).
This is a short-term fix, my current medium-term plan, which I hope to
execute soon as well, but am not sure can finish before .30, looks like
this:
1) rework the internal queuing layer in mac80211 that we use for
fragments if the driver stopped queue in the middle of a fragmented
frame to be able to queue more frames at once (rather than just a
single frame with its fragments)
2) instead of stopping the entire AC queue, queue up the frames in a
per-station/per-TID queue during aggregation session initiation,
when the session has come up take all those frames and put them
onto the queue from 1)
3) push the ampdu queue layer abstraction this patch introduces in
mac80211 into the driver, and remove the virtual queue stuff from
mac80211 again
This plan will probably also affect ath9k in that mac80211 queues the
frames instead of passing them down, even when there are no ampdu queues.

asix: new device ids
This patch adds two new device ids to the asix driver.
One comes directly from the asix driver on their web site, the other was
reported by Armani Liao as needed for the MSI X320 to get the driver to
work properly for it.

qlge: Use one path to (re)fill rx buffers.
Currently there are two paths for filling rx buffer queues. One is
used during initialization and the other during runtime. This patch
removes ql_alloc_sbq_buffers() and ql_alloc_lbq_buffers() and replaces
them with a call to the runtime functions ql_update_lbq() and
ql_update_sbq().

qlge: Optimize rx buffer refill process.
RX Buffers are refilled in chunks of 16 at a time before notifying the
hardware with a register write. This can cause several writes to take
place in a given napi poll call. This change causes the write to take place
only once at the end of the call.
