Some drivers (iwlegacy, iwlwifi and rt2x00) today use the
bss_conf.last_tsf value. By itself though that value is
completely worthless since it may be ancient. What really
is needed is synchronisation between some device time and
the TSF.
To clarify this, rename bss_conf.last_tsf to sync_tsf and
add sync_device_ts which is obtained from rx_status which
gets a new field device_timestamp for this purpose. This
is intentionally not using the mactime field since that
is used for other things and in IBSS is expected to sync
with the IBSS's TSF which isn't necessarily true for the
device timestamp.
Also, since we have the information and it's useful even
before the connection has been established, give all the
timing details to the driver before authenticating.

When CONFIG_PM is disabled, no device can possibly
support WoWLAN since it can't go to sleep to start
with. Due to this, mac80211 had even rejected the
hardware registration. By making all the code and
data for WoWLAN depend on CONFIG_PM we can promote
this runtime error to a compile-time error.
Add #ifdef around all WoWLAN code to remove it in
systems that don't need it as they never suspend.

even if the HT capabilities are not known yet (they are often

Following the addition of propagating errors from the bus ops
there's a need to distinguish between bus errors (including timeout)

where a timeout on a response from the FW to a command is acceptable.

commit 14bba17b "wl12xx: Propagate errors from wl1271_raw_write32"
breaks down TX in certain scenarios. wl1271_irq_locked() propagates
errors from wl1271_tx_work_locked however it may return -EBUSY
when the FW queues are full which is a legitimate case and not a
a real error. In this case a recovery is triggered by wl1271_irq
and this keeps repeating itself so TX is completely broken.
Fix it by avoiding propagating return values as errors even if they
aren't. Only bus (SDIO or SPI) ops failures would be progagated
as only these should trigger recovery.

Set a flag and after the first read/write failure is encountered.
This flag will disallow further SDIO read/writes until op_stop() is
executed, which will clear all flags.
This prevents further errors from occurring, since one error usually
indicates that IO operations won't work anymore until the chip is
rebooted. By blocking more calls, we avoid extra timeouts and having
to wait for them to occur.

This is a flaw in recently implemented logic to handle Tx traffic
and scan operation simultaneously. We missed to wakeup main thread
to handle Tx traffic if scan is delayed/aborted.
For some cards (SD8797, for example), firmware will send SLEEP event
if there is no activity for 50msec. While handling the SLEEP event,
main thread will be woken up and Tx packet gets sent hence. In worst
case Tx traffic will be delayed for 50msec.
For other cards, such as USB8797, firmware won't send SLEEP event.
So, Tx traffic gets stuck if no other event triggers the wakeup of
main thread.
This patch fixes above issues.
