This mechanism introduced in this patch applies (at least) for hardware designs using a single shared antenna for both WLAN and BT. In these designs, the antenna must be toggled between WLAN and BT. In those hardware, managing WLAN co-existence with Bluetooth requires WLAN full power save whenever there is Bluetooth activity in order for WLAN to be able to periodically relinquish the antenna to be used for BT. This is because BT can only access the shared antenna when WLAN is idle or asleep. Some hardware, for instance the wl1271, are able to indicate to the host whenever there is BT traffic. In essence, the hardware will send an indication to the host whenever there is, for example, SCO traffic or A2DP traffic, and will send another indication when the traffic is over. The hardware gets information of Bluetooth traffic via hardware co-existence control lines - these lines are used to negotiate the shared antenna ownership. The hardware will give the antenna to BT whenever WLAN is sleeping. This patch adds the interface to mac80211 to facilitate temporarily disabling of dynamic power save as per request of the WLAN driver. This interface will immediately force WLAN to full powersave, hence allowing BT coexistence as described above. In these kind of shared antenna desings, when WLAN powersave is fully disabled, Bluetooth will not work simultaneously with WLAN at all. This patch does not address that problem. This interface will not change PSM state, so if PSM is disabled it will remain so. Solving this problem requires knowledge about BT state, and is best done in user-space.

When station management calls to ucode return an error we could previously do nothing, but now that almost all calls are synchronous we can actually let the error bubble up.

Now that the ampdu_action callback can sleep, we can use the mutex to properly protect the aggregation data, and return useful errors if they should happen. Also, add some sleep and mutex debugging so we won't call any of the functions that now require being able to sleep and/or the mutex to be held in an invalid context.

Currently, detection in hwsim and ath9k can detect that two sw scans are in flight at the same time, which isn't really true. It is caused by a race condition, because the scan complete callback is called too late, after the lock has been dropped, so that a new scan can be started before it is called. It is also called too early semantically, as it is currently called _after_ the return to the operating channel -- it should be before so that drivers know this is the operating channel again.

Reviewed RX descriptor functions against the HAL sources. Some minor changes: - check size before making changes to the descriptor - whitespace - add comments about 5210 timestamps. this needs to be adressed later! - FIFO overrun error only available on 5210 - rs_phyerr should not be OR'ed - clear the whole ath5k_rx_status structure before using, instead of zeroing specific fields.
