The old survey implementation was broken and returned nonsense data.
Clear cycle counters and survey data on reset. Since the cycle counters easily
overflow it's better to keep a local version of collected survey data (in ms
resolution, instead of clockrate) and update this every time survey is
retrieved. If survey is retrieved often enough to avoid cycle counter overflows
this works fine, otherwise we could update survey more often, like ath9k does.
Still only the survey for the current channel is kept.

Add a new notification to indicate that a received, unprotected
Deauthentication or Disassociation frame was dropped due to
management frame protection being in use. This notification is
needed to allow user space (e.g., wpa_supplicant) to implement
SA Query procedure to recover from association state mismatch
between an AP and STA.
This is needed to avoid getting stuck in non-working state when MFP
(IEEE 802.11w) is used and a protected Deauthentication or
Disassociation frame is dropped for any reason. After that, the
station would silently discard any unprotected Deauthentication or
Disassociation frame that could be indicating that the AP does not
have association for the STA (when the Reason Code would be 6 or 7).

With the current single-queue implementation traffic priorization is not
working correctly - when using multiple BE streams and one, say VI stream,
the VI stream will share bandwidth almost equally with the BE streams.
To fix the issue, implement per AC queues, which are emptied in priority
order to the firmware. To keep it relatively simple, maintain a global
buffer count and global queue stop/wake instead of per-AC.
With these changes, priorization appears to work just fine.

Currently, the debug level is set in compilation time (by the DEBUG_LEVEL
const). This method has the advantage of compiling only the relevant
messages, while optimizing out the unused ones.
In order to allow runtime control over the debug_level, while optimizing
out messages when debug messages are not needed, we combine some methods:
1. use dynamic_debug (pr_debug) rather then printk.
2. add debug_level module param in order to set debug level during insmod.
3. add debug_level sysfs file in order to allow dynamic control over the
debug level.
Since patches for pr_debug_hex_dump() implementation haven't been applied yet,
we are still temporarly using print_hex_dump().

max_scan_ie_len is used for validating the size of

This module enables individually generating RX and TX traffic
over the SDIO bus on which the WL1271 chipset is connected.
This is required to perform RF interference testing.
The module takes 2 module parameters 'rx' and 'tx'.
To generate RX traffic:
modprobe wl1271_sdio_test rx=1
To generate TX traffic:
modprobe wl1271_sdio_test tx=1
To generate both RX & TX traffic, set both rx and tx to 1.
You can change the testing configuration at runtime by changing
the rx & tx values at /sys/modules/wl1271_sdio_test/
To stop testing simply unload the module.

Disabling the 11a channels when not supported in the reg_notify function was
not working as it should, because when the driver is initiailizing (and
registering itself with mac80211), it would get the reg notification too
early. At that point the driver wouldn't have received the NVS yet, so it
wouldn't know whether 11a was supported.
To fix this, we disable 11a channels when we read the NVS instead. Also, it
is easier (and still safe) to set n_channels to zero instead of setting the
disabled flag on every 11a channel.
