Currently, command path waits till all the tx host queues
are empty. Whenever watchdog event is raised, firmware
expects driver to destroy ampdu queues immediately.
This requires corresponding commands i.e.
mwl8k_cmd_get_watchdog_bitmap and mwl8k_destroy_ba to be
sent without waiting for the tx queues to be completely
empty.
Use "watchdog_event_pending" to ensure the above mentioned
two commands are sent down immediately.

When TX aggregation is stopped, there are a few
different cases:
- connection with the peer was dropped
- session stop was requested locally
- session stop was requested by the peer
- connection was dropped while a session is stopping
The behaviour in these cases should be different, if
the connection is dropped then the driver should drop
all frames, otherwise the frames may continue to be
transmitted, aggregated in the case of a locally
requested session stop or unaggregated in the case of
the peer requesting session stop.
Split these different cases so that the driver can
act accordingly; however, treat local and remote stop
the same way and ask the driver to not send frames as
aggregated packets any more.
In the case of connection drop, the stop callback the
driver is otherwise supposed to call is no longer
required.

The firmware supports 8 macid's corresponding to 8 BSS that can be
created in an MBSS environment. Currently, BASTREAM commands were always
sent with macid 0. This macid is used to configure the hardware ampdu
registers with appropriate BSS address in an MBSS environment.
This mac address is used by the hardware for various ampdu related requirements
e.g. source address in BAR generation, BA interpretation e.t.c.
Using invalid macid results in this mac address not getting appropriately
configured in the hardware which results in issues during ampdu traffic.
Fix this by sending the BASTREAM commands with appropriate macid.

When a client disassociates from a crypto enabled bss, data traffic to
other clients connected to the bss is stalled. This was due to a boolean
variable used to keep track if HW crypto is enabled i.e. if set key has
been called to add a key. This flag was being reset every time delete
key was called e.g when a station leaves the bss. Once the flag is
reset, rx status flags were not being set for connected clients which
disrupts traffic to these clients. Fix this issue by not resetting the
flag since we do not need to reset this flag during the life time of the

The tx_headroom required for mwl8k driver is 32 bytes and it
can use the space for 802.11 header received from mac80211.
mwl8k considers the smallest 802.11 frame (CTS2self of 10
bytes) that can be received from mac80211 to compute the
extra_tx_headroom as 22 (32 - 10) bytes.
When the wireless interface is part of bridge, this
extra_tx_headroom requirement results in a memcpy in
mac80211 (in function pskb_expand_head) for all the data
frames needing L2 forwarding/bridging, when NET_SKB_PAD is
defined as 32. This patch reduces the extra_tx_headroom by
8 bytes so that memcpy of data frames in mac80211 is
avoided in this case.
The resize will be required in driver for frames with 802.11
header size of less than 18 bytes.
