When the rssi of the current AP drops, both wpa_supplicant and the
firmware may do a background scan to find a better AP and try to
associate. Since firmware based roaming is faster, inform
wpa_supplicant to avoid roaming and let the firmware decide to
roam if necessary.
For fullmac drivers like ath6kl, it is just enough to provide the
ESSID and the firmware will decide on the BSSID. Since it is not
possible to do pre-auth during roaming for fullmac drivers, the
wpa_supplicant needs to completely disconnect with the old AP and
reconnect with the new AP. This consumes lot of time and it is
better to leave the roaming decision to the firmware.

Unfortunately failed BAR tx attempts happen more frequently than I
expected, and the resulting aggregation teardowns cause performance
issues, as the aggregation session does not always get re-established
properly.
Instead of tearing down the entire aggr session, we can simply store the
SSN of the last failed BAR tx attempt, wait for the first successful
tx status event, and then send another BAR with the same SSN.

Under failure conditions, the mesh stack sends PERR messages to the
previous sender of the failed frame. This happens in the tx feedback
path, in which the transmission queue lock may be taken. Avoid a
deadlock by sending the path error via the pending queue.

If the command queue is constantly busy,
which can happen in P2P, the hangcheck
timer will frequently find a command in
it and will eventually reset the device
because nothing sets the timestamp for
this queue when commands are processed.
Fix this by setting the timestamp when
a command completes.

This cleans up the connect event parsing by defining a union in
struct wmi_connect_event to match with the three possible sets of
fields that the target uses depending on which type of connect
event is being indicated. In addition, two AP cases are now
separated from ath6kl_connect_event() so that correct field names
can be used to make it actually possible to understand what the
code is doing.
The bug hiding in the previous mess was in parsing the AID incorrectly
when processing the new station connecting event in AP mode. The fix
here for that is also fixing TIM updates for PS buffering to use the
correct AID.

Limit the length of the channel list to WMI_MAX_CHANNELS to avoid
rejection of the request in wmi.c. Since there is not really much
point in using a specific list of more than 32 channels, drop the
channel list if more channels are specified and scan all channels.
Fix cfg80211 scan API use: ar->scan_req must be set only if returning
success from scan() handler. The previous version would result in use
of freed memory and likely kernel panic should the scan request fail
to be sent to the target.
