This is an alternate driver for a number of Realtek WiFi USB devices,
including RTL8723AU, RTL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, and RTL8192CU.
It was written from scratch utilizing the Linux mac80211 stack.

After spending months cleaning up the vendor provided rtl8723au
driver, which comes with it's own 802.11 stack included, I decided to
rewrite this driver from the bottom up.

Many thanks to Johannes Berg for 802.11 insights and help and Larry
Finger for help with the vendor driver.

The full git log for the development of this driver can be found here:
git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jes/linux.git
    branch rtl8723au-mac80211

This driver is still under development, but has proven to be very
stable for me. It currently supports station mode only. It has support
for OFDM and CCK rates. It does lack certain features found in the
staging driver, such as power management, AMPDU, and 40MHz channel
support. In addition it does not support AD-HOC, AP, and monitor mode
support at this point.

The driver is known to work with the following devices:
Lenovo Yoga (rtl8723au)
TP-Link TL-WN823N (rtl8192cu)
Etekcity 6R (rtl8188cu)
Daffodil LAN03 (rtl8188cu)
Alfa AWUS036NHR (rtl8188ru)

This patch disables PCI PS for QCA988X and QCA99X0, Since PCI PS is
validated for QCA6174, let it be enabled only for QCA6174. It would be
better to execute PCI PS related functions only for the supported devices.

PCI time out issue is observed with QCA99X0 on x86 platform, We will
disable PCI PS for QCA988X and QCA99X0 until PCI PS is properly implemented.

Taking and releasing ps_lock is causing higher CPU consumption. Michal Kazior
suggested ps_lock overhead to be reworked so that ath10k_pci_wake/sleep
functions are called less often, i.e. move the powersave logic up (only during
irq handling, tx path, submitting fw commands) but that's a bigger change and
can be implemented later.

Currently target to host (T2H) HTT messages are received at copy engine 1.
These messages are processed by HTC layer in both host and target.
To avoid HTC level processing overhead in both host and target,
the unused copy engine 5 is being used for receiving HTT T2H messages.
This will speedup the receive data processing as well as htt tx completion.
Hence host and target copy engine configuration tables are updated
to enable CE5 pipe. The in-direction HTT mapping is now pointing to CE5
for all HTT T2H.

Moreover HTT send completion messages are polled from HTC handler
as CE 4 is not interrupt-driven. For faster tx completion, CE4 polling
needs to be done whenever CE pipe which transports HTT Rx (target->host)
is processed. This avoids overhead of polling HTT messages from HTC
layer. Servicing CE 4 faster is helping to solve "failed to transmit
packet, dropping: -105".

The FreeBSD driver [0] uses the same 2G values as for the AR9280 chips.
Using the same values in ath9k results in much better throughput for me.

Before this patch I had a huge amount of packet loss (sometimes up to
40%) and the max transfer speed was somewhere around 5Mbit/s. With this
patch applied I have zero packet loss and ten times the throughput.
My device uses a AR9227 which is the PCI variant of the AR9287.

QCA6174 needs different board files based on board type. To make it easier to
distribute multiple board files and automatically choose correct board file
create a simple TLV file format following the same principles as with FW IEs.
The file is named board-2.bin and contain multiple board files. Each board file
then can have multiple names.

ath10k searches for file board-N.bin (where N is the interface version number
for the board file, just like we for firmware files) in /lib/firmware/*, for
example for qca99x0 it will try to find it here:

/lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA99X0/hw2.0/board-2.bin

If ath10k doesn't find board-2.bin then it will fallback to the old board.bin file.

This patch adds a simple name scheme using pci device id which for now will be
used by qca6174:

bus=%s,vendor=%04x,device=%04x,subsystem-vendor=%04x,subsystem-device=%04x

This removes the old method of having subsystem ids in ar->spec_board_id and
using that in the board file name.
