Separate the debugging macros and other definitions to a new debug.h
file. This is be needed because the sdio and spi modules don't need
to depend on the wl12xx module anymore, but still need to include
wl12xx.h. Currently they do depend on it, because of the debugging
global that wl12xx exports. A future patch will remove this
dependency.

wl->vif is appropriate only when a single vif is being used.
Instead, pass wlvif as parameter or iterate through all
the vifs (e.g. when a global configuration was changed)
Leave wl->vif only to determine whether a vif was already
added (this check will be removed as well after both the
driver and fw will support multiple vifs)

add band field into the per-interface data.
mac80211 configures some values (e.g. band, channel)
globally, while we configure them per-interface.
In order to make it easier to keep track of the
configured value for each value while keeping sync
with mac80211, save these values both globally
and per-vif.

Dummy packets are currently only sent on the system_hlid link. The
system_hlid link should never be filtered for PS (as it is not
a STA link). Even so, for correctness, don't indicate dummy packets up.
The skb does not belong to mac80211 and as such does not contain a
correct skb->cb.

Split tx_queue_count to count per-AC skb's queued, instead of relying on
the skb-queue len. The skb queues used were only valid in STA-mode, as
AP-mode uses per-link queues.
This fixes a major regression in AP-mode, caused by the patch
"wl12xx: implement Tx watermarks per AC". With that patch applied, we
effectively had no regulation of Tx queues in AP-mode. Therefore a
sustained high rate of Tx could cause exhaustion of the skb memory pool.

The elp_work is being enqueued on wl1271_ps_elp_sleep, but doesn't get
cancelled on wl1271_ps_elp_wakeup. This might cause immediate entrance
to elp when the wl->mutex is being released, rather than using the delayed
enqueueing optimization.
Cancel elp_work on wakeup request, and add a new WL1271_FLAG_ELP_REQUESTED
flag to further synchronize the elp actions.

ELP (Extremely/Enhanced Low Power, or something like that ;)) refers to
the powerstate of the 12xx chip, in which very low power is consumed,
and no commands (from the host) can be issued until the chip is woken up.
Wakeup/sleep commands must be protected by a wl->mutex, so it's generally
a good idea to call wakeup/sleep along with the mutex lock/unlock (where
needed). However, in some places the wl12xx driver calls wakeup/sleep in
some "inner" functions. This result in some "nested" wakeup/sleep calls
which might end up letting the chip go to sleep prematurely (e.g. during
event handling).
Fix it by rearranging the elp calls to come along with mutex_lock/unlock.

To achieve maximal throughput, it is very important to react to
interrupts as soon as possible. Currently the interrupt handler wakes up
a worker for handling interrupts in process context. A cleaner and more
efficient design would be to request a threaded interrupt handler. This
handler's priority is very high, and can do blocking operations such as
SDIO/SPI transactions.
Some work can be deferred, mostly calls to mac80211 APIs
(ieee80211_rx_ni and ieee80211_tx_status). By deferring such work to a
different worker, we can keep the irq handler thread more I/O
responsive. In addition, on multi-core systems the two threads can be
scheduled on different cores, which will improve overall performance.
The use of WL1271_FLAG_IRQ_PENDING & WL1271_FLAG_IRQ_RUNNING was
changed. For simplicity, always query the FW for more pending
interrupts. Since there are relatively long bursts of interrupts, the
extra FW status read overhead is negligible. In addition, this enables
registering the IRQ handler with the ONESHOT option.

Update the PS mode of each link according to a bitmap polled from
fw_status. Manually notify mac80211 about PS mode changes in connected
stations.
mac80211 will only be notified about PS start when the station is in PS
and there is a small number of TX blocks from this link ready in HW.
This is required for waking up the remote station since the TIM is
updated entirely by FW.
When a station enters mac80211-PS-mode, we drop all the skbs in the
low-level TX queues belonging to this sta with STAT_TX_FILTERED
to keep our queues clean.

headers or both cmd and acx headers. This accomplish to remove the

documented as well.
Also try to make all commands safe for DMA transfers. I might have missed

supports only SPI. Adding support 1253 (the 5 GHz version) should be
relatively easy. More information here:
