commit 86271e46 introduced a
regression that caused mac80211 queues in stopped state.

ath_drain_all_txq is called in driver flush which would reset
the stopped flag and the mac80211 queues were never started
after that. iperf traffic is completely stalled due to this issue.

Restart the mac80211 queues in driver flush only if the txqs were
drained.

The return value of the tx operation is commonly
misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers
will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and
they must also properly manage the queues (if they
didn't, mac80211 would already warn).

Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY
value also allows significant cleanups of the TX
TX handling code in mac80211.

Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the
old "return -1" there was wrong.

Since even with the latest changes the false positive issue of the baseband
hang check is not fully solved yet, additional checks are needed.
If the baseband hang occurs, the rx_clear signal will be stuck to high, so
we can use the cycle counters to confirm it.
With this patch, a hardware reset is only triggered if the baseband hang
check returned true three times in a row, with a beacon interval between
each check and if the busy time was also 99% or more during the check
intervals.

While unloading the driver, the ps_usecount is incremented
before configuring gpio registers in deinit_device.
But it is failed to restore the ps_usecount after that.
The problem is that the chip is forcibly moved to FULL SLEEP
by radio_disable when mac80211 is reporting as idle
though ps_usecount is not zero.

This patch retores ps_usecount properly and ensures that
the chip is always moved to full sleep only if ps usage
count is zero which also helps in debugging deadbeef on
multivif case. And also fixes the following warning.

The aggregation code currently doesn't implement the
buffer size negotiation. It will always request a max
buffer size (which is fine, if a little pointless, as
the mac80211 code doesn't know and might just use 0
instead), but if the peer requests a smaller size it
isn't possible to honour this request.

In order to fix this, look at the buffer size in the
addBA response frame, keep track of it and pass it to
the driver in the ampdu_action callback when called
with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL action. That
way the driver can limit the number of subframes in
aggregates appropriately.

Note that this doesn't fix any drivers apart from the
addition of the new argument -- they all need to be
updated separately to use this variable!

Since baseband hangs are rare, but the hang check function has a high
false positive rate in some situations, we need to add more reliable
indicators.

In AP mode we can use blocked beacon transmissions as an indicator,
they should be rare enough.

In station mode, we can skip the hang check entirely, since a true
hang will trigger beacon loss detection, and mac80211 will rescan,
which leads to a hw reset that will bring the hardware back to life.

To make this more reliable, we need to skip fast channel changes
if the hardware appears to be stuck.

ath9k supports its own set of virtual wiphys, and it uses
the mac80211 idle notifications to know when a device needs
to be idle or not. We recently changed ath9k to force idle
on driver stop() and on resume but forgot to take into account
ath9k's own virtual wiphy idle states. These are used internally
by ath9k to check if the device's radio should be powered down
on each idle call. Without this change its possible that the
device could have been forced off but the virtual wiphy idle
was left on.
