As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the
only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel
with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it.
This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations
right now.
Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or
not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code
by removing the ability to use different channel types.
Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if
we extend it again later (with the needed capability
flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.

When the firmware is in SNIFFER mode, it leaves
the FCS at the end of frame. Not telling mac80211
means it won't add the right flag to the radiotap
header and that confuses wireshark.
Since mac80211 doesn't have a per-packet flag, set
the HW flag dynamically. This works as the monitor
vif can only be present in the driver by itself.
This fixes a regression introduced by my
commit 5789772641

No HCMD can be sent while RFKILL is asserted. If a SYNC
command is running while RFKILL is asserted the fw will
silently discard it. This means that the driver needs to
wake the process that sleeps on the CMD_SYNC.
Since the RFKILL interrupt is handled in the transport layer
and the code that sleeps in CMD_SYNC is also in the transport
layer, all this logic can be handled there.
This simplifies the work of the op_mode.
So the transport layer will now return -ERFKILL when a CMD
is sent and RFKILL is asserted. This will be the case even
when the CMD is SYNC. The transport layer will return
-ERFKILL straight away.

When tracing in iwlwifi, we get all data. Most of
the time, we don't need it, and it just takes up
a lot of extra space in the trace.
Make this optional by recording the data into two
separate trace events if it is needed. Without it,
record only the content of non-data and EAPOL TX
frames.
As a result, tracing without the data tracepoints
will record meta information including the 802.11
headers for all frames but will not record the
contents of data frames to reduce trace overhead.

Before Emmanuel's change to use a copy of the command
("iwlwifi: get the correct HCMD in the response handler")
the iwl_add_sta_callback() function would have used a
random pointer to somewhere when processing responses
to an async command, while that wasn't valid data it
was at least a valid pointer. Now, the pointer will be
NULL in this case, thus crashing.
Fix this by exiting the function early if no command
is passed back which means it was sent asynchronously.

Instead of allocating one big chunk of DMA-coherent
memory for the firmware and keeping it around, only
vmalloc() the firmware and copy it into a single
page of DMA-coherent memory for the upload.
The advantage is that we don't need DMA memory for

is operating, we only need it while uploading.
This will make it easier for the driver to work if

Until now, the response handler of a Host Command got the
exact same pointer that was also given to the DMA engine.
We almost never need to the Host Command that was sent while
handling its response, but when we do need it, we see that
the command has been modified.
This mystery has been elucidated. The FH (our DMA engine)
writes its meta data on the buffer in the DRAM. Of course it
copies the buffer to the NIC first. This was known to happen
for Tx command, but as a matter of fact, it happens to all
TFD brought by the FH which doesn't care much about what it
brings from DRAM to internal SRAM.
So copy the Host Command to yet another buffer so that we
can properly pass the buffer that was sent originally to the
fw. Do that only if it was request by the user since very
few flows need to get the HCMD sent in the response handler.

Some drivers (iwlegacy, iwlwifi and rt2x00) today use the
bss_conf.last_tsf value. By itself though that value is
completely worthless since it may be ancient. What really
is needed is synchronisation between some device time and
the TSF.
To clarify this, rename bss_conf.last_tsf to sync_tsf and
add sync_device_ts which is obtained from rx_status which
gets a new field device_timestamp for this purpose. This
is intentionally not using the mactime field since that
is used for other things and in IBSS is expected to sync
with the IBSS's TSF which isn't necessarily true for the
device timestamp.
Also, since we have the information and it's useful even
before the connection has been established, give all the
timing details to the driver before authenticating.
