27edb1accf iwlwifi: silently ignore fw flaws in Tx path
We know that we have issues with the fw in the reclaim path.
This is why iwl_reclaim doesn't complain too loud when it
happens since it is recoverable. Somehow, the caller of
iwl_reclaim however WARNed when it happens. This doesn't
make any sense.

When I digged into the history of that code, I discovered
that this bug occurs only when we receive a BA notification.
So move the W/A in the BA notification handling code where
it was before.

c8a8ab4472 iwlwifi: change TX code to suppress smatch warning
By using a few temporary variables, smatch can track
what's happening and stops complaining that we access
beyond the tid_data array.

This also makes the generated code a bit smaller, so
it's a win all around.

b7998c8b44 iwlwifi: Change define and struct names in iwl-eeprom-parse.h
Since we will have several forms of NVM (EEPROM, OTP, etc.)
and they will have different layouts, make the parsed data
more generic. This allows functional code to be independent
of a specific layout.

Also change some variables and function names from having
"eeprom" to "nvm" in their name.

2eb81a40aa iwlwifi: don't clear CTL_AMPDU on frame status
There's no reason to clear the CTL_AMPDU flag on
transmitted frame status, it's not used by the
driver here and mac80211 only uses it for some
rate statistics.

Also remove a stray space in the function.

36323f817a mac80211: move TX station pointer and restructure TX
Remove the control.sta pointer from ieee80211_tx_info to free up
sufficient space in the TX skb control buffer for the upcoming
Transmit Power Control (TPC).
Instead, the pointer is now on the stack in a new control struct
that is passed as a function parameter to the drivers' tx method.

67711c17fc iwlwifi: WARN only once when we have trouble in reclaim
This flow can actually happen due to a corner case in
mac80211: the station is deleted before we get a chance
to reclaim all the packets in flight in AGG queue.
The tid_data for this station is zeroed, and we lose
the match with the Tx queue.

1174173939 iwlwifi: comment that setting driver_data overrides info->control
Using the driver_data area in ieee80211_tx_info which
resides in the CB overrides the info->control field.

26a7ca9a71 iwlwifi: refactor EEPROM reading/parsing
The EEPROM reading/parsing code is all mixed in
the driver today, and the EEPROM is parsed only
when we access data from it. This is problematic
because the NVM needs to be parsed and that is
independent of reading it. Also, the NVM format
for new devices will be different and probably
require a new parser.

Therefore refactor the reading and parsing and
create two independent components. Reading the
EEPROM requires direct hardware accesses and
therefore access to the transport, but parsing
is independent and can be done on an NVM blob.

59c647b626 iwlwifi: allocate Tx cmd pool per device
Different transports will have different needs: New tranports
need headroom for their own use before the Tx cmd. So allocate
the Tx cmd pool in the transport and give it a unique name
based on dev_name.

4beaf6c2f8 iwlwifi: s/txq_setup/txq_enable
We need to be able to enable / disable Tx queues in HW
dynamically. So this function is no longer related to AGG
only. It can do the job for any queue, even AC ones. Change
the name to better reflect its role.

Also use the new function to configure the AC / CMD queues
in tx_start.
