In recent commit "mwifiex: use cfg80211 dynamic scan..."
(7c6fa2a8..) scan table handling in driver is removed to
make use of cfg80211 dynamic scan table. Now driver sends
beacon buffers found in scanning directly to stack and parse
the buffer for requested BSS only during association.

Beacon buffer doesn't contain bss band information. Driver
gets it from firmware in separate tlv (chan_band_tlv).
Currently since we don't inform stack about bss bandinfo,
there is an issue with 5GHz association.

Use "priv" field of struct cfg80211_bss to store bandinfo.
This fixes 5GHz association issue.

Sometimes association in 5GHz doesn't work. Dmesg log shows
"Can not find requested SSID xyz" error message. Currently
while preparing scan channel list for firmware Null entries
are created for disabled channels. The routine which retrieves
this list ignores channels after Null entry. Hence sometimes
driver doesn't scan the channel of requested AP and association
fails. The issue is fixed by avoiding those NULL entries.

For ad-hoc mode, RA is created for each peer connected. In case of
multicast traffic new RA will be created for each multicast
address. While processing Tx packets we have to go through this
RA list. We can avoid some RA nodes by sharing same RA for both
multicast and broadcast packets.

Therefore "memset(0xff)" is used to treat multicast packet as broadcast
one while choosing RA.

In XMIT path, the skb that we get from the kernel itself is not
aligned with 4-byte boundary on some embedded platforms.

Had it not been the presence of tx_pkt_offset field in txpd, 4 byte
memory alignment was not possible without memmove of entire skb.
And that would have increased MIPS instead of reducing.

With this patch few memory cycles can be saved while fetching
interface header and txpd structure because of 4 bytes memory
alignment.

While decoding received event packet from firmware, 4 bytes
of interface header are already removed unconditionally.
So for handling event only 4 more bytes needs to be pulled.
This is achieved by changing event header length to 4.

Almost all the events, except BA stream related and AMSDU
aggregation control events, do not have the payload in their
event skb. Such events handling depends only on the event ID.
This event ID is the first four bytes of the event skb, which
is copied to a separate variable before pulling the skb header.
Hence event handling worked only for those events that didn't
have payload in event skb.

This patch fixes the broken event path of the events with
payload in their event skb without harming existing working
event path for the events without payload.
