If a vif's RSSI gets good enough, we can enable reduced
Tx power. If so, we need to update the ACK / CTS kill mask
accordingly. Since the auditing for the interfaces was bad,
we enabled reduced Tx power, but didn't update the ACK / CTS
kill mask.
This is harmless since the firmware is most likely to
discard this setting anyway, but it is a good practice
to update it.

In case that an AP/GO interface is started while there is a

To resolve this, when the AP is started, check if there is an
active station interface, and guarantee that the AP/GO TBTT is far

A separate SCD queue is mapped to this fifo - the cab_queue
(cab stands for Content After Beacon). This queue isn't
connected to any station, but rather to the MAC context.
This queue should (and is already) be set as the MCAST
queue - this is part of the of MAC context command.

According to the FW implementation, the quota command should
have a valid entry for each active binding (where 'active' in
this context means that the binding is known to the FW). In case
the binding should not get any quota, the 'quota' should be set
to zero.
Not setting an 0 quota for an active binding when all the MACs
in the binding are idle, i.e., not associated in case of managed
interface, will result in preventing the FW scheduler from entering
IDLE state and the FW from transitioning to low PS.
