The purpose of this is two-fold:
 1) by moving it out of tx_data.flags, we can in
    another patch move the radiotap parsing so it
    no longer is in the hotpath
 2) if a device implements fragmentation but can
    optionally skip it, the radiotap request for
    not doing fragmentation may be honoured

th5k_hw_setup_tx_queue() returns a valid offset into the ah->ah_txq[]
array.  The ah->ah_txq[] and the ah->txqs[] array are the same size.
Both have AR5K_NUM_TX_QUEUES elements.  So this error handling code
will never trigger.

Also it's wrong.  The call to ath5k_hw_release_tx_queue() with a qnum
of AR5K_NUM_TX_QUEUES or more will just trigger a WARN_ON() and
return.  Or if it missed the WARN_ON(), it would just corrupt some

Recent patches added support for resetting the SD8686 hardware when
commands time out, which seems to happen quite frequently soon after
resuming the system from a Wake-on-WLAN-triggered resume.

At http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10969 we see the same thing happen
with transmits. In this case, the hardware will fail to respond to
a frame passed for transmission, and libertas (correctly) will block
all further commands and transmissions as the hardware can only
deal with one thing at a time. This results in a lockup while the
system waits indefinitely for the dead card to respond.

Hook up a TX lockup timer to detect this and reset the hardware.

The commit "mwifiex: remove list traversal.."(fcf2176c..)
wrongly modifies AMSDU aggregation check. Due to this even though
packet size for iperf traffic is already large, we unnecessarily
try to aggregate them which adds some delay. If Tx iperf is started
on UUT for 30 seconds, UUT keeps sending Tx packets for few more
seconds.

That commit is reverted to fix the problem.
Also, MIN_NUM_AMSDU check is moved inside the loop to optimize the
loop.

Recently mac80211 was changed to use nullfunc instead of probe
request for connection monitoring for tx ack status reporting
hardwares. Sometimes in congested network, STA got disconnected
quickly after the association. It was observered that the rate
control was not adopted to environment due to minimal transmission.

As the nullfunc are used for monitoring purpose, these frames should
not be sacrificed for rate control updation. So it is better to send
the monitoring null func frames at minimum rate that could help to
retain the connection.
