The existing ITR code is broken and confusing, with lots of similarly-named
variables that do different things. Additionally, after the driver carefully
determines the optimal interrupt rate for the adapter, it then
ignores it and always writes a fixed, suboptimal value.
This patch refactors that code to make variable names more descriptive of
what they actually do, and then actually writes the calculated result to
the hardware.
Preliminary testing shows that netperf TCP_STREAM tests goes from ~918Mbps
to ~940Mbps, and TCP_RR goes from ~2k transactions/sec up to > 8k.

Earlier we were using dtim period extracted from scan response
buffer provided by FW in scan operation. But it is observed that
sometimes the buffer doesn't contain dtim period tlv, and wrong
value (0) was sent to user space.
After association FW will start listening to beacon frames of
connected AP and store dtim period. Therefore we can get it from
FW in dump_station() instead of using wrong value obtained in
scanning.
Redundant code after adapting new approach for dtim period is
also removed in this patch.

Memory allocated by ieee80211_alloc_hw() will get orphaned
if any subsequent initializations fail.
Also don't pci_set_drvdata(pdev, NULL) until just before disabling
the PCI device. Functions called by rtl_deinit_core(hw) may eventually need
the context (when its actually implemented).

In set_channel() callback handler, "priv" pointer is derived from
net_device. Sometimes net_device pointer coming from the stack
is NULL which causes kernel crash.
This patch fixes the problem by deriving "priv" from wiphy
when net_device pointer is NULL.

mlx4_en_prepare_rx_desc does not correctly clean up after it finds an
allocation failure. It should unmap a page before calling put_page, but
it only calls the later.
This bug would prevent a device removal using hotplug after setting the
device MTU to 9000 and opening the network interface. After the fix, we
still see the allocation failure with MTU 9000, but we are able to
remove the device.

After opening the network interface, Mellanox ConnectX device cannot be
removed by hotplug because it has not properly unmapped all DMA memory.
It happens that mlx4_en_activate_rx_rings overrides the variable that
keeps the size of the memory mapped.
This is fixed by passing to mlx4_en_destroy_rx_ring the same size that is
given to mlx4_en_create_rx_ring.
After applying this patch, hot unplugging the device works after opening
the interface.
