The receive descriptor ops that are currently marked as being for
8687 only are actually used for all STA firmware images, whereas the
receive descriptor ops marked as 8366 are only used on 8366 when an
AP firmware image is in use.
Rename the receive descriptor ops to reflect this, use the STA ops
unconditionally if the firmware image loaded reported the STA ready
code, and rename the mwl8k_device_info::rxd_ops member to ap_rxd_ops
to indicate that it should only be used if we are running on AP
firmware.

Whether the firmware we have loaded is AP or STA firmware decides
which receive descriptor format we have to use. Therefore, move

The time between loading the helper image and starting to upload the
main firmware image should be at least 5 ms or so. We were doing an
msleep(1) before, and 1 ms appears to not be enough in almost all
cases, but building with HZ=100 has always masked this so far. Bumping
the msleep argument to 5 fixes firmware loading e.g. when HZ=1000.
Some firmware images need more than 200ms to initialize. Bump the
ready code timeout to 500ms to accommodate for this.

Before issuing any firmware commands, we wait for the transmit rings
to drain, to prevent control versus data path synchronization issues.
In some cases, this can end up taking longer than the current hardcoded
limit of 5 seconds, for example if the transmit rings are filled with
packets for a host that has dropped off the air and we end up
retransmitting every pending packet at the lowest rate a couple of
times.
This patch changes mwl8k_tx_wait_empty() to only bail out on timeout
expiry if there was no change in the number of packets pending in the
transmit rings during the waiting period. If at least one transmit
ring entry was reclaimed while we were waiting, we are apparently still
making progress, and we'll allow waiting for another timeout period.

On 8366, bit 6 in the rx descriptor rate field indicates whether the
packet was received on a 20MHz or 40MHz channel, and is not part of
the MCS index. Handle this properly, which then prevents hitting the
WARN_ON and being dropped in ieee80211_rx().

When inserting a DMA header into a packet for transmission,
mwl8k_add_dma_header() would blindly zero the addr4 field, which
is not a good idea if the packet being transmitted is actually a
4-address packet.
Also, if the transmitted packet was a 4-address with QoS packet,
the memmove() to do the needed header reshuffling would inadvertently
overwrite the first two bytes of the packet payload with the QoS field.
This fixes both of these issues.

Packets exchanged between the mwl8k driver and the firmware always
have a 4-address header without QoS field. For QoS packets, the QoS
field is passed to/from the firmware via the tx/rx descriptors.
We were handling this correctly on transmit, but not on receive -- if
a QoS packet was received, we would leave garbage in the QoS field in
the packet passed up to the stack, which is Bad(tm).
Also, if the packet received on the air was a 4-address without QoS
packet, we would forget to skb_pull the 2-byte DMA length prefix off.
This patch adds an argument to the ->rxd_process() receive descriptor
operation to retrieve the QoS field from the receive descriptor, and
extends mwl8k_remove_dma_header() to insert this field back into the
packet if the packet received is a QoS packet. It also fixes
mwl8k_remove_dma_header() to strip off the length prefix in all cases.

There exist 12 802.11b/g rates, but mwl8k supports two additional
(non-standard) rates, and includes those rates in rate bitmasks and
in its internal rate table that hardware rate indices index.
Commit "mwl8k: report rate and other information for received frames"
added one of the nonstandard rates to the mwl8k_rates table to make
the OFDM rates in the table line up with the rate indices that are
reported in the receive descriptor (so that we can just simply copy
the receive descriptor rate index into ieee80211_rx_status::rate_idx)
and bumped MWL8K_IEEE_LEGACY_DATA_RATES from 12 to 13, but this
screwed up the UPDATE_STADB command struct layout, as it also uses
that define, for its legacy_rates array.
To avoid having to convert rate indices and legacy rate bitmaps (e.g.
ieee80211_bss_conf::basic_rates) between the 12-rate mac80211 format
and the 14-rate mwl8k format, we'll report all 14 rates in our wiphy's
band, but filter out the nonstandard ones e.g. in the case of the
UPDATE_STADB command which only accepts 12 rates.
In the commands that accept 14 rates (SET_AID, SET_RATE), replace the
use of the MWL8K_RATE_INDEX_MAX_ARRAY define in the command struct by
the constant 14, to make it clearer that these commands accept 14 rates.

to upload to the hardware, using msleep in the inner loop would make
the firmware loading process take a lot more time than just doing
busy-waiting like we do now. But if we keep the busy-waiting, we can
at least add a cond_resched() to the inner loop so that we give other
tasks a chance to run while the firmware is being loaded.

When FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC is not set, we enable the hardware's BSS
filter so that we'll only see packets destined for our BSS. But if no
STA interfaces have been configured, we would end up passing the BSSID
00:00:00:00:00:00 into the POST_SCAN command, which actually disables
the hardware's BSS filter, as it's not a valid BSSID.
Fix this by passing in 01:00:00:00:00:00 instead (the criterion is
that the OUI part of the BSSID must be nonzero), and add comments to
explain what PRE_SCAN and POST_SCAN do.
