Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 66ddcc3942 ath6kl: Make fw error recovery configurable
Add a modparam to configure recovery. Recovery
from firmware error is disabled by default to debug
the actual issue further. To recovery from error,
modprobe ath6kl_core recovery_enable=1.

Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 9233299394 ath6kl: Add support to detect fw error through heart beat
This patch adds support to detect fw error condition by sending
periodic message (heart beat challenge) to firmware. Upon reception
of the message, fw would send a response event to driver. When
there are no reponses from fw for about 5 cmd driver would
trigger the recovery logic assuming that fw has gone into an
error state.

Capable fw will advertise this capability through
ATH6KL_FW_CAPABILITY_HEART_BEAT_POLL bit. This feature
is disabled by default, can be enabled through a modparam
(heart_beat_poll). This modparam also confiures the polling
interval in msecs.

Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 84caf8005b ath6kl: Recover from fw crash
Re-initialize the target when fw crash is reported.
This would make the device functional again after
target crash. During the target re-initialization
it is made sure that target is not bugged with data/cmd
request, ar->state ATH6KL_STATE_RECOVERY is used
for this purpose.

Raja Mani 8f46fccd6c ath6kl: Maintain the listen interval per VIF specific
Firmware has the option to support the listen interval
per vif specific. Fix this.

Listen interval can be set by the TUs or by the number
of beacons. Current code enables the user to configure
the listen interval in the unit of 'number of beacons'
using debugfs entry "listen_interval". Going forward,
we need to alter the listen interval in the unit of TUs
to get good power numbers while going to WOW suspend/resume.

Allowing the user to change the listen interval in
the unit of "number of beacons"  in debugfs and changing
listen interval in wow suspend/resume in the unit of
time (TUs) would lead us to confuse.

This patch make sures the listen interval is changed only
in the unit of time (TUs).

Raja Mani 1e9a905d9a ath6kl: Add provision to define suspend policy in disconnected state.
It gives flexibility to the user to define suspend policy
when the suspend mode is set to WOW and the device is in
disconnected state at the time of suspend.

New module parameter wow_mode is added to get the choice
from the user. This parameter is valid only if the module
parameter suspend_mode is set to WOW.

To force WOW in connected state and cut power
in disconnected state:
  suspend_mode=0x3 wow_mode=0x1

To force WOW in connected state and deep sleep
in disconnected state (this is also the default wow_mode):
   suspend_mode=0x3 wow_mode=0x2

If there is no value specified to wow_mode during insmod,
deep sleep mode will be tried in the disconnected state.

Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan b796f0934a ath6kl: Defer wiphy and netdev registration till the end of ath6kl_core_init()
This makes the wiphy and initial netdev registration the last step
in dev initialization. Apart from the fact that this looks right,
it can also be used to setup wiphy with the regulatory information
received from firmware after uploading the firmware. Also it fixes
a FIXME in ath6kl_core_init() where mac address is copied into
netdev->dev_addr, ath6kl_interface_add() takes care of this as well.

after the enpoints connection is esablished. But this is done before the

Raja Mani e390af779d ath6kl: Re-architect suspend mode handling in ath6kl_sdio_suspend
Using this patch, the user can bypass existing auto
suspend mode selection logic and force ath6kl to enter
into the suspend mode what he/she wants.

If the user doesn't choose any suspend mode while doing
insmod of the driver, auto suspend mode selection logic
will kick in and choose suspend mode based on the host
SDIO controller capability.

Generic module parameter is required to specify suspend
mode including Deep Sleep and WOW while doing insmod.
Renaming existing mod param variable suspend_cutpower
would be sufficient to meet this requirement.

New module parameter suspend_mode can take any one of
the below suspend state,
   1. cut power
   2. deep sleep
   3. wow
