Some PCIE firmwares drop txstatus if pktid is 0 and make packet held in
host side and never be released. If that packet type is 802.1x, the
pend_8021x_cnt value will be always greater than 0 and show "Timed out
waiting for no pending 802.1x packets" error message when sending key to
dongle every time.
To be compatible with all firmwares, host should set txflow request id
from 1 instead of from 0.

Firmware may report general errors using a special message type. Add
basic support for it by simply decoding & printing an error number.
A sample situation in which firmware reports a buf error:
CONSOLE: 027084.733 no host response IOCTL buffer available..so fail the request
will now produce a "Firmware reported general error: 9" on the host.

For USB there is no separate channel being used to pass events
from firmware to the host driver and as such are passed over the
data path. In order to detect mock event messages an additional
check is needed on event subtype. This check is added conditionally
using unlikely() keyword.

New Broadcom firmwares mark monitor mode packets using a newly defined
bit in the flags field. Use it to filter them out and pass to the
monitor interface. These defines were found in bcmmsgbuf.h from SDK.
As not every firmware generates radiotap header this commit introduces
BRCMF_FEAT_MONITOR_FMT_RADIOTAP flag. It has to be has based on firmware
capabilities. If not present brcmf_netif_mon_rx() will assume packet is
a raw 802.11 frame and will prepend it with an empty radiotap header.
This new code is limited to the msgbuf protocol at this point. Adding
support for SDIO/USB devices will require some extra work (possibly a
new firmware release).

When using the firmware api it can fail simply because firmware does
not like the request or it fails due to issues in the host interface.
Currently, there is only a single error code which is confusing. So
adding a parameter to pass the firmware error separately and in case
of a firmware error always return -EBADE to user-space.

So far our core code was calling brcmf_fws_process_skb which wasn't
a proper thing to do. If case of devices using msgbuf protocol fwsignal
shouldn't be used. It was an unnecessary extra layer simply calling
a protocol specifix txdata function.
Please note we already have txdata callback, but it's used for calls
between bcdc and fwsignal so it couldn't be simply used there.
This makes core code more generic (instead of bcdc/fwsignal specific).

Firmware uses asynchronized events as a communication method to the
host. The event packets are marked as ETH_P_LINK_CTL protocol type. For
SDIO and PCIe bus, this kind of packets are delivered through virtual
event channel not data channel. This patch adds a screening logic to
make sure the event handler only processes the events coming from the
correct channel.

New generation devices have firmware which has more than 256 flowrings.
E.g. following debugging message comes from 14e4:4365 BCM4366:
[ 194.606245] brcmfmac: brcmf_pcie_init_ringbuffers Nr of flowrings is 264
At various code places (related to flowrings) we were using u8 which
could lead to storing wrong number or infinite loops when indexing with
this type. This issue was quite easy to spot in brcmf_flowring_detach
where it led to infinite loop e.g. on failed initialization.
This patch switches code to proper types and increases the maximum
number of supported flowrings to 512.
Originally this change was sent in September 2015, but back it was
causing a regression on BCM43602 resulting in:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address ...
The reason for this regression was missing update (s/u8/u16) of struct
brcmf_flowring_ring. This problem was handled in 9f64df9 ("brcmfmac: Fix
bug in flowring management."). Starting with that it's safe to apply
this original patch as it doesn't cause a regression anymore.
This patch fixes an infinite loop on BCM4366 which is supported since
4.4 so it makes sense to apply it to stable 4.4+.

brcmf_msgbuf_ioctl_resp_wake() seems to be missing a memory barrier
which might cause the waker to not notice the waiter and miss sending a
wake_up as in the following figure.
brcmf_msgbuf_ioctl_resp_wake brcmf_msgbuf_ioctl_resp_wait
------------------------------------------------------------------------
if (waitqueue_active(&msgbuf->ioctl_resp_wait))
/* The CPU might reorder the test for
the waitqueue up here, before
prior writes complete */
/* wait_event_timeout */
/* __wait_event_timeout */
/* ___wait_event */
prepare_to_wait_event(&wq, &__wait,
state);
if (msgbuf->ctl_completed)
...
msgbuf->ctl_completed = true;
schedule_timeout(__ret))
------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are three other place in drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211/brcmfmac/
which have similar code. The attached patch removes the call to
waitqueue_active() leaving just wake_up() behind. This fixes the
problem because the call to spin_lock_irqsave() in wake_up() will be an
ACQUIRE operation.
I found this issue when I was looking through the linux source code
for places calling waitqueue_active() before wake_up*(), but without
preceding memory barriers, after sending a patch to fix a similar
issue in drivers/tty/n_tty.c (Details about the original issue can be
found here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/9/28/849).
