This reverts commit f236464f1d
Commit f236464f1d ("wifi: wilc1000: convert list management to RCU")
replaced SRCU with RCU, aiming to simplify RCU usage in the driver. No
documentation or commit history hinted about why SRCU has been preferred
in original design, so it has been assumed to be safe to do this
conversion.
Unfortunately, some static analyzers raised warnings, confirmed by runtime
checker, not long after the merge. At least three different issues arose
when switching to RCU:
- wilc_wlan_txq_filter_dup_tcp_ack is executed in a RCU read critical
section yet calls wait_for_completion_timeout
- wilc_wfi_init_mon_interface calls kmalloc and register_netdevice while
manipulating a vif retrieved from vif list
- set_channel sends command to chip (and so, also waits for a completion)
while holding a vif retrieved from vif list (so, in RCU read critical
section)
Some of those issues are not trivial to fix and would need bigger driver
rework. Fix those issues by reverting the SRCU to RCU conversion commit

wilc1000 driver currently uses SRCU API to manage vif list. There is no
real reason to use SRCU API here, and it makes things slightly more
complicated (we need to handle a SRCU index as well as a srcu_struct) than
classical RCU.
Switch SRCU APIs to RCU APIs.

This warning is due to the section being protected by a srcu critical read
section, but the list traversal being done with classic RCU API. Fix the
warning by using corresponding SRCU read lock/unlock APIs. While doing so,
since we always manipulate the same list (managed through a pointer
embedded in struct_wilc), add a macro to reduce the corresponding
boilerplate in each call site.

Use the correct register configuration when the WILC chip is down so the
successive interface up operation is successful. The modified registers
values during chip down helps to avoid the "FW not responding" debug
message which sometimes occurs because of temporary bus communication
failure during the next start. Also, make sure on first communication with
the chip that it is indeed woken up.

For the SDIO driver, the RESET/ENABLE pins of WILC1000 are controlled
through the SDIO power sequence driver. This commit adds analogous
support for the SPI driver. Specifically, during initialization, the
chip will be ENABLEd and taken out of RESET and during
deinitialization, the chip will be placed back into RESET and disabled
(both to reduce power consumption and to ensure the WiFi radio is
off).
Both RESET and ENABLE GPIOs are optional. However, if the ENABLE GPIO
is specified, then the RESET GPIO should normally also be specified as
otherwise there is no way to ensure proper timing of the ENABLE/RESET
sequence.

The wakeup and sleep commands need to be sent to the WILC chip only
when it is in power save mode (PSM, as controlled by "iw dev wlan0 set
power_save on/off"). The commands are relatively costly, so it pays

When deinitializing the driver, one or more "FW not responding" error
appears on the console. This appears to be due to wilc_wlan_stop()
disabling host/WILC1000 communication, but then right afterwards, it

enabling the chip-sleep cannot success once host/WILC1000
communication is disabled. Fix by only releasing the bus.

Use the correct sequence to configure clockless registers for chip wake-up.
The following sequence is expected from WILC chip for wakeup:
- set wakeup bit in wakeup_reg register
- after setting the wakeup bit, read back the clock status bit for wakeup
complete.
For SDIO/SPI modules, the wakeup sequence is the same except uses different
register values so refactored the code to use common function for both
SDIO/SPI bus.

ac_classify() expects a struct sk_buff* as its second argument, which is
a member of struct tx_complete_data. priv happens to be a pointer to
struct tx_complete_data, so passing it directly to ac_classify() leads
to wrong behaviour and occasional panics.
Since there is only one caller of wilc_wlan_txq_add_net_pkt and it
already knows the type behind this pointer, and the structure is already
in the header file, change the function signature to use the real type
instead of void* in order to prevent confusion.
