Calling kobject_uevent_env() can fail mainly due to out of
memory conditions. We do not want to continue during such
conditions so propagate that as well instead of letting
cfg80211 load as if everything is peachy.
Additionally lets clarify that when CRDA is not called during
cfg80211's initialization _and_ if the error is not an -ENOMEM
its because kobject_uevent_env() failed to call CRDA, not because
CRDA failed. For those who want to find out why we also let you
do so by enabling the kernel config CONFIG_CFG80211_REG_DEBUG --
you'll get an actual stack trace.
So for now we'll treat non -ENOMEM kobject_uevent_env() failures as
non fatal during cfg80211's initialization.

If cfg80211 is built into the kernel there is perhaps a small
time window betwen nl80211_init() and regulatory_init() where
cfg80211_regdomain hasn't yet been initialized to let the
wireless core do its work. During that rare case and time
frame (if its even possible) we don't allow user regulatory
changes as cfg80211 is working on enabling its first regulatory
domain.
To check for cfg80211_regdomain we now contend the entire operation
using the cfg80211_mutex.

Reset automatically the TSF on re-enabling beaconing after scanning
in IBSS mode causes several problems. For example a new created IBSS
network can't age before an other node has joined, because scans are
done automatically in that case. And several other strange bugs more...
The TSF reset is done manually in the higher level mac80211 code in
the cases were it's needed, so we don't need to do it here.

In the old days we used one slot per frame. But when we changed that to 2,
we didn't raise the overall slot count. Which resulted in an effective
division of two to the number of slots.
Double the number of TX slots, so we have an effective hardware queue
of 128 frames per QoS queue.
Also optimize the TX header cache handling. We don't need a cached TX header
for slots that will never carry an actual header.
So we reduce the memory consumption of the cache by 50%.
So as a net result we end up with more or less the same memory usage before
and after this patch (except a few tiny meta structures), but have twice
the number of TX slots available.

When iwlwifi runs on IOMMU, IOMMU generates a lot of PTE write faults
because PTE write bit is not set on some of PTE's. This is because iwlwifi
driver calls DMA mapping with PCI_DMA_TODEVICE which is read only in mapping
PTE. But iwlwifi device actually writes to the mapped page to update its contents.
This issue is not exposed in swiotlb. But VT-d hardware can capture this fault and
stop the fault transaction.
The iwl TX command contains a scratch field that is updated by uCode to
indicate retry counts. For 5000 series the patch is required also for
regular frames, but this patch does not differenciate.

This patch is a bit of a hack -- I'm not sure why iwl_setup_rxon_timing

it would output zero). I would be happy to have a better fix. But for
