Devices newer than 4965 don't actually send
two different versions of the ALIVE command,
so we always had a bug here since before this
patch we copy more data than we got. Remove
the iwl_init_alive_resp struct and don't use
it.
Since we also really don't need to track all
the data received in ALIVE as we only use the
error and log event tables later, we can also
save space by just keeping those and not more
data around in memory.

Some new devices and microcode files will a greater
variety of features, so the TLV-per-feature approach
we took before will quickly make things harder to
manage and increase the file size.
Add a new TLV that has feature flags. Currently, it
will contain:
1) a PAN feature flag, which moves from a separate
TLV
2) a new BT stats bit that indicates whether the
microcode image uses bluetooth statistics
3) a new MFP flag for management frame protection
which can be enabled once the device/microcode
supports it

The ucode restart has to take into account a number
of things, like clearing the HCMD_ACTIVE and other
status bits, and waking up the wait_command_queue.
Currently, however, there are a number of places
that neither do that, nor actually set the FW error
bit that leads to proper restart handling, which
means that in those cases things will probably just
hang completely.
To clean this up, make all ucode restart go through
a single function, except for the cases where it's
called during firmware loading.
Also fix a bug in wimax coexist restart avoidance,
it needs to first clear the status bits (and it has
to clear the HCMD_ACTIVE one as well) and then wake
up anything waiting on wait_command_queue.

We mark command as huge by using meta->flags from other (non huge) command,
but flags can be possibly overridden, when non huge command is enqueued,
what can lead to:
WARNING: at lib/dma-debug.c:696 dma_debug_device_change+0x1a3/0x1f0()

To fix introduce additional CMD_MAPPED to mark command as mapped and
serialize iwl_enqueue_hcmd() with iwl_tx_cmd_complete() using
hcmd_lock. Serialization will also fix possible race conditions,
because q->read_ptr, q->write_ptr are modified/used in parallel.

Since the driver split, there's no need for no_agg_framecnt_info since
all devices have this set to false. Secondly, the compressed block ack
handling code was broken. Fix this.
(1) A shift less than zero simply implies that the buffer wrapped, this
is expected. Remove the incorrect comment.
(2) The (agg->frame_count > (64-sh)) condition can happen if the last
frame is dropped. E.g., if I send 7 frames and the 6th is received but
the 7th is lost, the other side may only shift the window 6, not 7
frames since the last bit is a 0. This is perfectly fine behavior and
doesn't invalidate the feedback.
(3) Store the feedback from a Compressed BA in the first newly received
frame, rather than the start of the window. This way it will get
processed by the rate selection code. Feedback stored in a non-received
frame is likely to get overwritten by the retransmission.
This is based on the approach taken by minstrel_ht.

When filling out its rate scale table, iwlwifi repeats the first HT rate
IWL_HT_NUMBER_TRY times. The hardware scheduler will stop using
aggregation for any frame that fails LINK_QUAL_AGG_DISABLE_START_DEF
times. Currently, both these constants equal 3.
If iwlwifi probes a faster rate than the link supports, all frames in a
(potentially tens of frames large) batch will fail IWL_HT_NUMBER_TRY
times. Because this happens to be as large as
LINK_QUAL_AGG_DISABLE_START_DEF, all frames will then be sent
individually. This leads to a short, but performance-degrading window
where the legacy stop-and-wait MAC takes over.
Bounding the initial rate by (LINK_QUAL_AGG_DISABLE_START_DEF-1)
attempts makes the third try use a lower rate and hence more be likely
to succeed. This somewhat mitigates the above described behavior.

Usually H/W generate statistics notify once per about 100ms, but
sometimes we can receive notify in shorter time, even 2 ms.
This can be problem for plcp health and ack health checking.
I.e. with 2 plcp errors happens randomly in 2 ms duration, we
exceed plcp delta threshold equal to 100 (2*100/2).
Also checking ack's in short time, can results not necessary false
positive and firmware reset, for example when channel is noised and
we do not receive ACKs frames or when remote device does not send
ACKs at the moment.
Patch change code to do statistic check and possible recovery only
if 99ms elapsed from last check. Forced delay should assure we have
good statistic data to estimate hardware state.
