Check the state of the interface on op_* function so we don't try to access
the hardware in when its off.
The mac80211 may call these in some corner cases related, for instance, to
the hardware recovery procedure. These accesses cause a kernel crash on at
least some SDIO devices, because the bus is not properly claimed in that
scenario.

While scanning, it is possible that beacon and probe response frames are
received on other band than configured to the driver. In rx status
handling this has caused "Unsupported RX rate from HW" warnings. This
patch changes the wl1271_rate_to_index function to take the band of the
received frame as a parameter instead of using value configuret to
wl->band.

While wl1271_irq_work handles RX directly (by calling wl1271_rx), a different
work is scheduled for transmitting packets. The IRQ work might handle more than
one interrupt during a single call, including multiple TX completion
interrupts. This might starve TX, since no packets are transmitted until all
interrupts are handled.
Fix this by calling the TX work function directly, instead of deferring
it.

Due to legacy reason, dating back to when the wl1251 and wl1271 still were
a unified driver, some work-structures are initialized on hardware startup.
The hardware recovery code creates a scenario in which it is possible for a
workstruct to be re-initialized while the work-function itself is running,
which causes a kernel WARNing and a subsequent reboot.
To remedy this, move the work initialization calls to the hw allocation,
which is the logically correct place for them anyway.

Currently then dwell times for each channel in scans is set to an overly
long value, and excessive number of probe-requests are transmitted on each
channel (for active scans.)
Based on testing, comparable results can be received with smaller dwell-time,
and, with fever probe-requests - in fact, reducing the number of probe-requests
to 2 seems to increase the number of found results.
Configure more optimal values for per channel dwell times. Comparison for the
different scan configurations (in my current office environment):
dwell-time 60000 3x probe-req == ~60 results
40000 3x probe-req == ~50 results
30000 3x probe-req == ~40 results
dwell-time 60000 2x probe-req == ~70 results
40000 2x probe-req == ~60 results
30000 2x probe-req == ~58 results
The above are results for a cumulative 3 scan run. For individual scans, the
number of results drop slightly more.

Currently, the driver does not handle a failing hardware command to scan in
any way - effectively, the scan machine will jam until the driver is shut down,
and future scan requests will just return -EBUSY to user space, resulting in
a type of busy-loop. The same problem occurs if the firmware fails to deliver
the scan completion event - add timeout for this.

In the scan state machine, the wl1271_mutex is unlocked first then relocked,
and then the scan state variables are modified.
This makes it possible for ieee80211_scan_complete to be called twice in some
scenarios, as the scan completion event from the firmware may be processed
while the mutex is unlocked.
To fix the issue, move the ieee80211_scan_complete call last in the function.
This is generally safer, but there still may be issues is functions calling
the scan state machine rely on states checked before the unlocking of the
global mutex.
(forward ported from 2.6.32 -- this is not strictly needed anymore, because
the mutex doesn't need to be unlocked anymore, but I'm applying this change
anyway, so that the call to ieee80211_scan_complete is in the same place)

This patch is a complete rewrite of the scanning code. It now includes a
state machine to scan all four possible sets of channels independently:
2.4GHz active, 2.4GHz passive, 5GHz active and 5GHz passive. The wl1271
firmware doesn't allow these sets to be mixed, so up to several scan commands
have to be issued. This patch also allows scanning more than 24 channels per
set, by breaking the sets into smaller parts if needed (the firmware can scan
a maximum of 24 channels at a time).
Previously, the scanning code was erroneously scanning all channels possible
actively, not complying with the CRDA values. This is also fixed with this
patch.

The scanning code is going to get a bit more complex, with proper support for
active/passive scans together with 2.4GHz and 5GHz. In the future, also a
new type of scan (periodic scan) will be added. When all this is
implemented, the code is going to be much more complex, so we'd better
separate it into a separate file.
This patch doesn't have any impact on functionality.

Some AP's (such as Zyxel Prestige 600) have totally broken ps-poll
functionality. When powersave is enabled, these AP's will set the TIM bit for
a STA in beacons, but when the STA responds with a ps-poll, the AP does not
respond with data.
The wl1271 firmware is able to send an indication to the host, when this
problem occurs. This patch adds implementation, which temporarily disables
power-save in response to this indication, allowing the AP to transmit whatever
data it has buffered for the STA / whatever data is inbound at that time.
This patch does not make these AP's work reliably in PSM, but improves the
chances of inbound data getting through.
The side effect of this patch is increased power consumption when using a
