504937d493 wil6210: Enable TCP/UDP checksum HW offload
Add support for TCP and UDP HW checksum offloading.
RX chain is allways configured for offload mode.
In case of checksum error in RX path the DMA L4 error bit(5)
will be set to 1 and driver will drop the packet.
TX checksum offloading is configrable (ethtool -K).
TX descriptors are configured for checksum offload according
to the SKB protocol type (TCP/UDP, IPV4/6), Upon mismatch drop
the TX packet (checksum required but not TCP/UDP IPV4/6 type).

e0287c4ab8 wil6210: use NAPI
Introduce NAPI for Rx and Tx completion.

This fixes packet reordering that happens when Rx handled right in
the IRQ: netif_rx puts packet in 'percpu' queue, then network stack
fetches packets from 'percpu' queues for processing, with different
pattern of queue switching. As result, network stack see packets
in different order. This causes hard to understand TCP throughput
degradation in about 30min

Complete polling if only one packet was processed - this eliminates
empty polls that would be otherwise done at the end of each burst

cb901733b4 wil6210: Fix: Tx stall
Due to multi-tx-queue design, wil_start_xmit() used to be executed
concurrently for different queues. Then, these transmits delivered
to the same queue, creating race.

As result, Tx descriptor may be skipped, causing stall in hardware.

Convert to single Tx queue fixes it.

2be7d22f06 wireless: add new wil6210 802.11ad 60GHz driver
This adds support for the 60 GHz 802.11ad Wilocity card
through a new driver, wil6210. Wilocity implemented the
firmware, QCA maintains the device driver.

Currently supported:

- STA: with security
- AP: limited to 1 connected STA, security disabled
- Monitor: due to a hardware/firmware limitation
  either control or non-control frames are monitored

Using a STA and AP with this drive, one can assemble
a fully functional BSS. Throughput of 1.2Gbps is achieved
with iperf.

The wil6210 cards have on-board flash memory for the
firmware, the cards comes pre-flashed and no firmware
download is required.
