Add the brcmsmac_tx trace system for tx debugging. Existing code to dump tx status and descriptors are converted to using tracepoints, allowing for more efficient collection and post-processing of this data. These tracepoints are placed to collect data for all tx frames instead of only on errors. Logging of tx errors is also improved.

Convert most uses of wiphy_* and pr_* for general error and debug messages to use the internal debug macros instead. Most code used only for initialization still use wiphy_err(), as well as some locations which are executed too early to use the debug macros. Some debug messages which are redundant or not useful are removed.

Currently up to 256 frames can be queued for each DMA ring. This is excessive, and now that we have better flow control we can get by with less. Experimentation has shown 64 to work well.

nextrxd() is calling txd(), which means that the tx descriptor count is used to determine when to wrap for determining the next ring buffer entry. This has worked so far since the driver has been using the same number of rx and tx descriptors, but it's obviously going to be a problem if different numbers of descriptors are used.

The brcmsmac internal tx buffering is problematic. The amount of buffering is excessive (228 packets in addition to the 256 slots in each DMA ring), and frames may be dropped due to a lack of flow control. This patch reworks the transmit code path to remove the internal buffering. Frames are immediately handed off to the DMA support rather than passing through an intermediate queue. Non-aggregate frames are queued immediately into the tx rings, and aggregate frames are queued temporarily in an AMPDU session until ready for transmit. Transmit flow control is also added to avoid dropping packets when the tx rings are full. Conceptually this is a separate change, but it's included in this commit because removing the tx queue without adding flow control could cause significant problems.

The mac80211 tx queues and brcmsmac DMA fifos both map directly to AC levels. Therefore it's much more straightforward to queue tx frames and choose the tx fifo based on the mac80211 queue instead of mapping 802.1D priority tags to precedence levels then back to AC levels. mac80211 already maps the 802.1D levels to the appropriate AC levels and queues management frames at the maximum priority, so the results should be identical. One functional change resulting from this patch is that AMPDU retries no longer get a priority boost to queue them ahead of packets with the same priority already in the tx queue. This behavior will be restored (in effect at least) in a later patch when the tx queue is removed.

According to the comments this "reduces rate lag," but in reality the only way this value is used is for determining whether or not any frames remain to be transmitted. Therefore there's no reason for AMPDU packets to receive any weighting.

AMPDU session allows MPDUs to be temporarily queued until either a full AMPDU has been collected or circumstances dictate that transmission should start with a partial AMPDU. Packets are added to the session by calling brcms_c_ampdu_add_frame(). brcms_c_ampdu_finalize() should be called to fix up the tx headers in the first and last packet before adding the packets to the DMA ring. brmcs_c_sendampdu() is converted to using AMPDU sessions. This patch has no real value on it's own, but is needed in preparation for elimination of the tx packet queue from brcmsmac.

Drivers are allowed to modify the sent skb and thus we need to make a copy of it before passing it to the driver. Without this fix, LLCP Tx skbs were not queued properly as the ptype check was failing due to e.g. the pn533 driver skb_pushing the Tx skb.
