"complete RX frames."
The 128 entry RX FIFO is really easy to fill up and miss refilling
when it's done in the ath taskq - as that gets blocked up doing
RX completion, TX completion and other random things.
So the 128 entry RX FIFO now gets emptied and refilled in the ath_intr()
task (and it grabs / releases locks, so now ath_intr() can't just be
a FAST handler yet!) but the locks aren't held for very long. The
completion part is done in the ath taskqueue context.
Details:
* Create a new completed frame list - sc->sc_rx_rxlist;
* Split the EDMA RX process queue into two halves - one that
processes the RX FIFO and refills it with new frames; another
that completes the completed frame list;
* When tearing down the driver, flush whatever is in the deferred
queue as well as what's in the FIFO;
* Create two new RX methods - one that processes all RX queues,
one that processes the given RX queue. When MSI is implemented,
we get told which RX queue the interrupt came in on so we can
specifically schedule that. (And I can do that with the non-MSI
path too; I'll figure that out later.)
* Convert the legacy code over to use these new RX methods;
* Replace all the instances of the RX taskqueue enqueue with a call
to a relevant RX method to enqueue one or all RX queues.
Tested:
* AR9380, STA
* AR9580, STA
* AR5413, STA
The vnode-backed md(4) has to map the unmapped bio because VOP_READ()
and VOP_WRITE() interfaces do not allow to pass unmapped requests to
the filesystem. Vnode-backed md(4) uses pbufs instead of relying on
the bio_transient_map, to avoid usual md deadlock.

* when pulling frames off of the TID queue, the ATH_TID_REMOVE()
macro decrements the axq_depth field. So don't do it twice.
* in ath_tx_comp_cleanup_aggr(), bf wasn't being reset to bf_first
before walking the buffer list to complete buffers; so those buffers
will leak.
Since this is being done during buffer free, it's a crap shoot whether
the TX path lock is held or not. I tried putting the ath_freebuf() code
inside the TX lock and I got all kinds of locking issues - it turns out
that the buffer free path sometimes is called with the lock held and
sometimes isn't. So I'll go and fix that soon.
Hence for now the holdingbf buffers are protected by the TXBUF lock.
When working on TDMA, Sam Leffler found that the MAC DMA hardware
would re-read the last TX descriptor when getting ready to transmit
the next one. Thus the whole ATH_BUF_BUSY came into existance -
the descriptor must be left alone (very specifically the link pointer
must be maintained) until the hardware has moved onto the next frame.
He saw this in TDMA because the MAC would be frequently stopping during
active transmit (ie, when it wasn't its turn to transmit.)
Fast-forward to today. It turns out that this is a problem not with
a single MAC DMA instance, but with each QCU (from 0->9). They each
maintain separate descriptor pointers and will re-read the last
descriptor when starting to transmit the next.
So when your AP is busy transmitting from multiple TX queues, you'll
(more) frequently see one QCU stopped, waiting for a higher-priority QCU
to finsh transmitting, before it'll go ahead and continue. If you mess
up the descriptor (ie by freeing it) then you're short of luck.
Thanks to rpaulo for sticking with me whilst I diagnosed this issue
that he was quite reliably triggering in his environment.
This is a reimplementation; it doesn't have anything in common with
the ath9k or the Qualcomm Atheros reference driver.
Now - it in theory doesn't apply on the EDMA chips, as long as you
push one complete frame into the FIFO at a time. But the MAC can DMA
from a list of frames pushed into the hardware queue (ie, you concat
'n' frames together with link pointers, and then push the head pointer
into the TXQ FIFO.) Since that's likely how I'm going to implement
CABQ handling in hostap mode, it's likely that I will end up teaching
the EDMA TX completion code about busy buffers, just to be "sure"
this doesn't creep up.
Tested - iperf ap->sta and sta->ap (with both sides running this code):
* AR5416 STA
* AR9160/AR9220 hostap
To validate that it doesn't break the EDMA (FIFO) chips:
* AR9380, AR9485, AR9462 STA
Using iperf with the -S <tos byte decimal value> to set the TCP client
side DSCP bits, mapping to different TIDs and thus different TX queues.
TODO:
* Make this work on the EDMA chips, if we end up pushing lists of frames
to the hardware (eg how we eventually will handle cabq in hostap/ibss
mode.)

Fix the IPMI regression by sending BGE_FW_DRV_STATE_UNLOAD to
ASF/IPMI firmware in driver attach phase. Sending heartheat to
ASF/IPMI is enabled only after upping interface so
setting driver state to BGE_FW_DRV_STATE_START in attach phase
broke IPMI access.
While I'm here, add NVRAM arbitration lock before performing
controller reset. ASF/IPMI firmware may be able to access the NVRAM
while controller reset is in progress. Without the arbitration
lock before resetting the controller, ASF/IPMI may not initialize
properly.

This stuff sorely needs tidying up - it's missing some important
stuff (eg numdelims) and it would be nice to put the flags at the
beginning rather than at the end.
