When introducing multiple RX queues, a single NAPI struct will not
be sufficient. Instead of trying to store multiple, simply change
the API to have the NAPI struct passed to the RX function. This of
course means that drivers using rx_irqsafe() cannot use NAPI, but
that seems a reasonable trade-off, particularly since only two of
all drivers are currently using it at all.

While at it, we can now remove the IEEE80211_RX_REORDER_TIMER flag

Due to remain-on-channel scheduling delays, when we split an ROC
while coalescing, we'll usually get a picture like this:

existing ROC:  |------------------|
current time:              ^
new ROC:                   |------|              |-------|

If the expected response frames are then transmitted by the peer
in the hole between the two fragments of the new ROC, we miss
them and the process (e.g. ANQP query) fails.

mac80211 expects that the window to miss something is small:

existing ROC:  |------------------|
new ROC:                   |------||-------|

but that's normally not the case.

To avoid this problem, coalesce only if the new ROC's duration
is <= the remaining time on the existing one:

existing ROC:  |------------------|
new ROC:                   |-----|

and never split a new one but schedule it afterwards instead:

existing ROC:  |------------------|
new ROC:                                       |-------------|

No matter how the driver manages its NAPI context, there's no way
sending frames to it from a timer can be correct, since it would

When LED triggers are compiled in, but not used, mac80211 will still
call them to update the status. This isn't really a problem for the
assoc and radio ones, but the TX/RX (and to a certain extend TPT)
ones can be called very frequently (for every packet.)

In order to avoid that when they're not used, track their activation
and call the corresponding trigger (and in the TPT case, account for
throughput) only when the trigger is actually used by an LED.

Additionally, make those trigger functions inlines since theyre only
used once in the remaining code.

This allows drivers to request per-vif and per-sta-tid queues from which
they can pull frames. This makes it easier to keep the hardware queues
short, and to improve fairness between clients and vifs.

The task of scheduling packet transmission is left up to the driver -
queueing is controlled by mac80211. Drivers can only dequeue packets by
calling ieee80211_tx_dequeue. This makes it possible to add active queue
management later without changing drivers using this code.

This can also be used as a starting point to implement A-MSDU
aggregation in a way that does not add artificially induced latency.

We currently have a hand-rolled table with 256 entries and are
using the last byte of the MAC address as the hash. This hash
is obviously very fast, but collisions are easily created and
we waste a lot of space in the common case of just connecting
as a client to an AP where we just have a single station. The
other common case of an AP is also suboptimal due to the size
of the hash table and the ease of causing collisions.

Convert all of this to use rhashtable with jhash, which gives
us the advantage of a far better hash function (with random
perturbation to avoid hash collision attacks) and of course
that the hash table grows and shrinks dynamically with chain
length, improving both cases above.

Use a specialised hash function (using jhash, but with fixed
length) to achieve better compiler optimisation as suggested
by Sergey Ryazanov.

This will expose in /sys whether the ifname of a device is set by

former, however should never be renamed, so userspace needs to be

Some APs experience problems when working with
U-APSD. Decreasing the probability of that
happening by using legacy mode for all ACs but VO
isn't enough.

Cisco 4410N originally forced us to enable VO by
default only because it treated non-VO ACs as
legacy.

However some APs (notably Netgear R7000) silently
reclassify packets to different ACs. Since u-APSD
ACs require trigger frames for frame retrieval
clients would never see some frames (e.g. ARP
responses) or would fetch them accidentally after
a long time.

It makes little sense to enable u-APSD queues by
default because it needs userspace applications to
be aware of it to actually take advantage of the
possible additional powersavings. Implicitly
depending on driver autotrigger frame support
doesn't make much sense.

This code turned out not to be as useful in the current form as we
