iwl_legacy prefix result in long function names, what cause that we
have frequent line split and not readable code. Also iwl_foo symbols
are duplicated in iwlwifi driver, what is annoying when editing
kernel tree with cscope.

tx params should be configured per interface.
add ieee80211_vif param to the conf_tx callback,
and change all the drivers that use this callback.

Add uAPSD support to mac80211. This is probably not
possible with all devices, so advertising it with
the cfg80211 flag will be left up to drivers that
want it.
Due to my previous patches it is now a fairly
straight-forward extension. Drivers need to have
accurate TX status reporting for the EOSP frame.
For drivers that buffer themselves, the provided
APIs allow releasing the right number of frames,
but then drivers need to set EOSP and more-data
themselves. This is documented in more detail in
the new code itself.

TSF can be kept per vif.
Add ieee80211_vif param to set/get/reset_tsf, and move
the debugfs entries to the per-vif directory.
Update all the drivers that implement these callbacks.

iwlagn: do not use interruptible waits
Since the dawn of its time, iwlwifi has used
interruptible waits to wait for synchronous
commands and firmware loading.
This leads to "interesting" bugs, because it
can't actually handle the interruptions; for
example when a command sending is interrupted
it will assume the command completed fully,
and then leave it pending, which leads to all
kinds of trouble when the command finishes
later.
Since there's no easy way to gracefully deal
with interruptions, fix the driver to not use
interruptible waits.
This at least fixes the error
iwlagn 0000:02:00.0: Error: Response NULL in 'REPLY_SCAN_ABORT_CMD'
I have seen in P2P testing, but it is likely
that there are other errors caused by this.

iwlagn: fix command queue timeout
If the command queue is constantly busy,
which can happen in P2P, the hangcheck
timer will frequently find a command in
it and will eventually reset the device
because nothing sets the timestamp for
this queue when commands are processed.
Fix this by setting the timestamp when
a command completes.
iwlegacy does not support P2P, but this patch fix possible
unneeded hardware resets, hence is needed.
