<title>iwlagn: fix (remove) use of PAGE_SIZE</title>

commit 106671369e6d046c0b3e1e72b18ad6dd9cb298b0 upstream.

The ICT code erroneously uses PAGE_SIZE. The bug
is that PAGE_SIZE isn't necessarily 4096, so on
such platforms this code will not work correctly
as we'll try to attempt to read an index in the
table that the device never wrote, it always has
4096-byte pages.

Additionally, the manual alignment code here is
unnecessary -- Documentation/DMA-API-HOWTO.txt
states:
  The cpu return address and the DMA bus master address are both
  guaranteed to be aligned to the smallest PAGE_SIZE order which
  is greater than or equal to the requested size.  This invariant
  exists (for example) to guarantee that if you allocate a chunk
  which is smaller than or equal to 64 kilobytes, the extent of the
  buffer you receive will not cross a 64K boundary.

Just use appropriate new constants and get rid of
the alignment code.

commit 9a215e40d70ae63762963ab3ccc7f31dd966dc6a upstream.

The driver everywhere uses max TID count as 9,
which is wrong, it should be 8.

I think the reason it uses 9 here is off-by-one
confusion by whoever wrote this. We do use the
value IWL_MAX_TID_COUNT for "not QoS/no TID"
but that is completely correct even if it is 8
and not 9 since 0-7 are only valid.

As a side effect, this fixes the following bug:

 Open BA session requested for 00:23:cd:16:8a:7e tid 8
 ------------[ cut here ]------------
 kernel BUG at drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-trans-pcie-int.h:350!
 ...

when you do
echo "tx start 8" &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/*/*/*/*/agg_status

<title>iwlwifi: update SCD BC table for all SCD queues</title>

Since we configure all the queues as CHAINABLE, we need to update the
byte count for all the queues, not only the AGGREGATABLE ones.

Not doing so can confuse the SCD and make the fw assert.

My previous patch
34a5b4b6af104cf18eb50748509528b9bdbc4036 iwlwifi: do not re-configure
HT40 after associated

Fix the case of HT40 after association on specified AP, but it break the
association for some APs and cause not able to establish connection.
We need to address HT40 before and after addociation.
