On new 2800 hardware sizes of TXWI &amp; RXIW can be different than TXD
&amp; RXD sizes, so we need to difference between them. Let's define
winfo_size as size of in buffer descriptor (TXWI &amp; RXWI), and desc_size
of as size of additional descriptor - in separate DMA coherent buffer
for PCI hardware (TXD &amp; RXD) and yet another in buffer descriptor for
USB hardware (TXINFO &amp; RXINFO).

Change is rt2x00 wild, but should affect only 2800 driver.

Patch also fix beaconing for 5592usb AP mode.

<title>rt2x00: Fix tx status reporting for reordered frames in rt2800pci</title>

rt2800 hardware sometimes reorders tx frames when transmitting to
multiple BA enabled STAs concurrently.

For example a tx queue
	[ STA1 | STA2 | STA1 | STA2 ]
can result in the tx status reports
	[ STA1 | STA1 | STA2 | STA2 ]
when the hw decides to put the frames for STA1 in one AMPDU.

To mitigate this effect associate the currently processed tx status
to the first frame in the tx queue with a matching wcid.

This patch fixes several problems related to incorrect tx status
reporting. Furthermore the tx rate selection is much more stable when
communicating with multiple STAs.

Currently we read tx status register after each urb data transfer. As
callback procedure also trigger reading, that causing we have many
"threads" of reading status. To prevent that introduce TX_STATUS_READING
flags, and check if we are already in process of sequential reading
TX_STA_FIFO, before requesting new reads.

Change timer to hrtimer, that make TX_STA_FIFO overruns less possible.
Use 200 us for initial timeout, and then reschedule in 100 us period,
this values probably have to be tuned.

Make changes on txdone work. Schedule it from
rt2800usb_tx_sta_fifo_read_completed() callback when first valid status
show up. Check in callback if tx status timeout happens, and schedule
work on that condition too. That make possible to remove tx status
timeout from generic watchdog. I moved that to rt2800usb.

Loop in txdone work, that should prevent situation when we queue work,
which is already processed, and after finish work is not rescheduled
again.

When sending an unencrypted frame to a STA the driver might want to pass
a suitable WCID since we don't have a key index to allow tx status
reports to get properly assigned to the correct STA.

The rt2x00 driver gets frequent occurrences of the following error message
when operating under load:
phy0 -&gt; rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the
non-full queue 2.

This is caused by simultaneous attempts from mac80211 to send a frame via
rt2x00, which are not properly serialized inside rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame,
causing the second frame to fail sending with the above mentioned error
message.

Fix this by introducing a per-queue spinlock to serialize the TX operations
on that queue.
