CMD_SYNC is really 0 which is confusing:
if (cmd.flags & CMD_SYNC) is always false.
Fix this by simply removing its definition.

When NIC is exiting from thermal throttling state (i.e. after
heating and then cooling down), tx-backoff values are assigned
to be zero, instead of being restored to the minimal value. Fixed.

When NIC exit thermal throttling while having minimal tx-backoff
restriction, the warning message that indicate about that state
won't show up. Fixed.

The tx backoff settings used by the thermal throttling mechanism can
also be used for enforcing a limit on the power consumption of the module.
Handle the platform PCIe power limitation by translating the limit
(measured in mw) to its respective tx backoff value. The translation is
module specific.
The resulting tx backoff value is sent to the ucode, and also serves as the
minimal backoff value that can be set by the thermal throttling mechanism.

The stop_hw trans callback is not well defined. It is missing in many
cleanup flows and the division of labor between stop_device/stop_hw
is cumbersome. Remove stop_hw and use stop_device to perform both.
Implement this for all current transports.
PCIE needs some extra configuration the op-mode is leaving to configure
RF kill. Expose this explicitly as a new op_mode_leave trans callback.
Take the call to stop_device outside iwl_run_mvm_init_ucode, this
makes more sense and WARN when we want to run the INIT firmware while
it has run already.

This is just a helper function to go from the mac80211
station struct to our internal one, to later allow us
to avoid temporary 'mvmsta' variables.

When the NIC is expected to operate in high temperature,
it is advisable to put more aggresive thermal throttling
parameters, in order to prevent CT-kill.

The LQ command argument isn't needed, it's always taken from the
station struct that's already passed, remove the argument.

Add prints visible to the user when entering and exiting
thrermal throttling, because so users can tell that the
NIC is getting too hot (and throughput will decrease.)

In order to avoid NIC destruction due to high temperature,
CT kill will power down the NIC.
To avoid this, thermal throttling will decrease throughput
to prevent the NIC from reaching the temperature at which
CT kill is performed.
