When static keys are used in shared WEP, when a
station is associated, message 3 is sent with an
encrypted payload. But, for subsequent
authentications that are triggered without a
deauth, the auth frame is decrypted by the HW.
To handle this, check if the WEP keys have already
been set for the peer and if so, mark the
frame as decrypted. This scenario can happen
when a station changes its default TX key and initiates
a new authentication sequence.

In some cases hw recovery was taking an absurdly
long time due to ath10k waiting for things that
would never really complete.
Instead of waiting for inevitable timeouts poke
all completions and wakequeues and check if it's
still worth waiting.
Reading/writing ar->state requires conf_mutex.
Since waiters might be holding it introduce a new
flag CRASH_FLUSH so it's possible to tell waiters
to abort whatever they were waiting for.

Some firmware revisions don't wait for beacon tx
completion before sending another SWBA event. This
could lead to hardware using old (freed) beacon
data in some cases, e.g. tx credit starvation
combined with missed TBTT. This is very very rare.
On non-IOMMU-enabled hosts this could be a
possible security issue because hw could beacon
some random data on the air. On IOMMU-enabled
hosts DMAR faults would occur in most cases and
target device would crash.
Since there are no beacon tx completions (implicit
nor explicit) propagated to host the only
workaround for this is to allocate a DMA-coherent
buffer for a lifetime of a vif and use it for all
beacon tx commands. Worst case for this approach
is some beacons may become corrupted, e.g. garbled
IEs or out-of-date TIM bitmap.
Keep the original beacon-related code as-is in
case future firmware revisions solve this problem
so that the old path can be easily re-enabled with
a fw_feature flag.

Use the common convention of embedding private
structures inside parent structures. This
reduces allocations and simplifies pci probing
code.

This aims at fixing some rare scan bugs related to
firmware reporting unexpected scan event
sequences.
One such bug was if spectral scan phyerr reporting
prevented firmware from properly propagating scan
events to host. This led to scan timeout. After
that next scan would trigger scan completed event
first (before scan started event) leading to
ar->scan.in_progress and timeout timer states to
be overwritten incorrectly and making the very
next scan to hang forever.

It always bugged me how tid is computed and stored
in a temporary var before written to the control
buffer. It was confusing and it made it difficult
to work with tx helpers.
While at it rename the qos workaround function as
it was misleading - it's not a workaround but
preparation for nwifi tx mode.

This is still the only way to submit mgmt frames in case
of 10.X firmware.
This patch introduces wmi_mgmt_tx queue, because of the
fact WMI command can block. This is a problem for
ath10k_tx_htt(), since it's called from atomic context.
The skb queue and worker are introduced to move the mgmt
frame handling out of .tx callback context and not block.

Restart the hardware if FW crashes.
If FW crashes during recovery we leave the
hardware in a "wedged" state to avoid recursive
recoveries.
When in "wedged" state userspace may bring
interfaces down (to issue stop()) and then bring
one interface (to issue start()) to reload
hardware manually.

Here's a new mac80211 driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac QCA98xx devices.
A major difference from ath9k is that there's now a firmware and
that's why we had to implement a new driver.
The wiki page for the driver is:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath10k
The driver has had many authors, they are listed here alphabetically:
