Same chip is being used by WLAN as well as bluetooth
drivers. Each driver needs to check during initialisation
if firmware is already active or it needs to be freshly
downloaded. If one driver has started downloading the
firmware, other finds the winner flag as false.
mwifiex_check_fw_status() checks firmware status and also
check if WLAN is the winner for firmware downloading.
Once we detect that other interface is downloading
the firmware, we call this routine again with max
poll count to wait until firmware is ready.
This patch splits the routine to avoid checking
winner status unnecessarily multiple times and ensures
that correct messages are displayed to user.
Firmware status poll count is also increased to 150.

Currently mac80211 does not inform the driver of the session
block ack timeout when starting a rx aggregation session.
Drivers that manage the reorder buffer need to know this
parameter.
Seeing that there are now too many arguments for the
drv_ampdu_action() function, wrap them inside a structure.

Driver supports Tx status ack feature. When hostapd/
wpa_supplicant asks for ack status of an EAPOL/ACTION
frame, driver maintains a cloned skb for the packet
until TX_STATUS event is received from firmware.
Cloned skb queue gets flushed when connection is terminated
or driver is unloaded.
Let's reduce the queue size to avoid unnecessarily
keeping memory allocated when environment is busy.
