In the Rx reorder mechanism, nothing is done in the interrupt
context, so there is no need to use 'irq' flavors of spinlock.
Rx done in NAPI context (tasklet), other manipulations - in the
thread context.
Having interrupts enabled makes it better for the OS in general.
Besides, if enslaved under bonding, bridge or team driver, Rx
won't work with interrupts disabled.

When establishing BACK, WMI may be handled earlier then Rx, in this case
late Rx will be mis-handled.
Detect early Rx and pass it to the stack, bypass reordering

In the reordering block, Ethernet DA was checked for MCAST, this is wrong.
Check instead MCAST indication from 802.11 MAC header. Hardware saves
this into Rx descriptor.

For manual ADDBA configuration, allow to set desired window size or
disable automatic mechanism.
Introduce module parameter (int) agg_wsize. It can be changed on run time,
will be taken into account on the next connect. Interpretation:
- <0 - disable automatic ADDBA; intended for manual testing through debugfs
- 0 - use automatically calculated window size
- >0 - use this for window size. Clipped by maximum supported by the hardware
with current environment.

Upon Tx vring creation, initiate BACK establishment
with maximum possible window size.
When establishing secure connection, there is EAPOL data exchange
between connection itself and "data port open", where security
is done and non-EAPOL data may be transferred. It is better to
send EAPOL frames using normal ACK because of firmware considerations.
send ADDBA only is 2 conditions met:
- data port open for the corresponded STA
- vring created

Introduce BACK establishment procedures; decision logic is not implemented
yet; debugfs entry 'addba' used to manually trigger addba/delba for ringid 0.
debugfs usage:
to establish BACK with agg_wsize 16:
echo 16 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/wil6210/addba
to delete BACK:
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/wil6210/addba
to change agg_wsize, one need to delete BACK and establish it anew
ADDBA flow for:
- originator
Tx side (initiator) sends WMI_VRING_BA_EN_CMDID providing
agg_wsize and timeout parameters.
Eventually, it gets event confirming BACK agreement - WMI_BA_STATUS_EVENTID
with negotiated parameters. On this event, update Tx vring data
(struct vring_tx_data) and display BACK parameters on debugfs
- recipient
Rx side (recipient) firmware informs driver about ADDBA with
WMI_RCP_ADDBA_REQ_EVENTID, driver process it in service work
queue wq_service. It adjusts parameters and sends response
with WMI_RCP_ADDBA_RESP_CMDID, and final confirmation provided
by firmware with WMI_ADDBA_RESP_SENT_EVENTID. In case of success,
driver updates Rx BACK reorder buffer.
policy for BACK parameters:
- aggregation size (agg_wsize * MPDUsize)) to not exceed 64Kbytes
DELBA flow for:
- originator
driver decides to terminate BACK, it sends WMI_VRING_BA_DIS_CMDID
and updates struct vring_tx_data associated with vring; ignore
WMI_DELBA_EVENTID.
- recipient
firmware informs driver with WMI_DELBA_EVENTID,
driver deletes correspondent reorder buffer
ADDBA request processing requires sending WMI command, therefore
it is processed in work queue context. Same work queue used as for
connect, it get renamed to wq_service

While handling Rx packet, BACK event arrives and frees tid_ampdu_rx array.
This causes kernel panic while accessing already freed spinlock
The fix is to remove tid_ampdu_rx[]'s spinlock and instead use single
sta's spinlock to guard the whole tid_ampdu_rx array.

In case of receiving frame with sequence number far greater than current,
wil_release_reorder_frames() will iterate many times over empty buffer.
Optimize this case by checking buffer emptiness and simply update
head_seq_num without iterating.

Sometimes, due to the race between Rx path and WMI_BA_STATUS_EVENTID WMI event,
few frames may be passed to the stack before reorder buffer allocated.
Then, after BACK establishment, it start getting frames with sequence number ahead of
SSN, and it get interpreted as missing frames. Then, BACK mechanism will wait
for missing frames; data traffic will be stopped. In case of interface configured
for DHCP, this data delay causes DHCP failure.
Relax checking for sequence number; use sequence of 1-st frame handled by the buffer
as SSN for this buffer.
This is work-around, real fix should be done when proper BACK mechanism implemented.

When running multiple connections, hardware can't do BACK reordering
and it should be done on the host.
Model after mac80211's implementation. Drop RCU for now;
to be re-added when BACK will be stabilized

pretend it was done to support the way FW operating
