This is to force ath6kl to power off hardware during suspend even if
sdio support keep power. This is needed, for example, when sdio
controller is buggy or maximum powersaving is desired.
Usage:
insmod ath6kl.ko suspend_cutpower=1

Jouni reported that my patch "ath6kl: power down hardware when interface
is down" caused a regression on his x86 boxes and scan didn't work anymore.
I was able to reproduce the problem by disabling all debug messages.
So there has to be a race condition somewhere in the code and disable the
functionality until the race is fixed. Now hardware is powered from the
point where module is loaded until it's removed.

The following is the lockdep warning which detects possible
deadlock condition with the way ar->lock and ar->list_lock
are being used.
(&(&ar->lock)->rlock){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffffa0492d13>] ath6kl_indicate_tx_activity+0x83/0x110 [ath6kl]
but this lock took another, SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock in the past:
(&(&ar->list_lock)->rlock){+.+...}
and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&(&ar->list_lock)->rlock);
local_irq_disable();
lock(&(&ar->lock)->rlock);
lock(&(&ar->list_lock)->rlock);
<Interrupt>
lock(&(&ar->lock)->rlock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
softirqs have to be disabled when acquiring ar->list_lock to avoid
the above deadlock condition. When the above warning printed the
interface is still up and running without issue.

If sdio controller doesn't support keep power, cut power from hardware
during suspend and restart firmware during resume. If we are connected
during suspend, send a disconnected event to user space.
Earlier suspend failed with an error if sdio didn't support keep power.
Now suspend will happen succesfully even with that case.

This is in preparation for cutpower suspend feature. HIF layer makes
the decision based on information provided by cfg80211 and what hardware
actually supports. Then it calls ath6kl_cfg80211_suspend() to enable
the chosen mode.
Functionality should be the same, this is just preparation for
more suspend modes (cutpower and wow).

Currently it takes an error code as status, but what we really want to
tell is if the scan was aborted or not.
Also fix a bug where we were comparing firmware scan status values
with kernel error codes, which is obviously wrong. This meant
that ath6kl didn't detect when firmware informed about failed scans. I
doubt that this fix doesn't make any difference in practise but it
still needs to be fixed. This is fixed by adding an enum for the success
status code and checking for that.

The benefit from this is that user space can control hardware's power state
by putting interface up and down. This is handy if firmware gets to some
weird state.
The downside will be that putting interface up takes a bit longer,
I was measuring ~500 ms during interface up.

Currently the name of the driver in struct sdio_driver is "ath6kl_sdio",

Use of cfg80211_scan_request is not valid after calling cfg80211_scan_done()
but ath6kl_cfg80211_scan_complete_event() was doing exactly that. Change
the function to call cfg80211_scan_done() last.
This was found during code review, I didn't see any visible problems

Even though only a single concurrent remain-on-channel operation is
supported, there may be two pending remain-on-channel events (one to
indicate end of a canceled operation and another to indicate start of a
new operation). User space won't be able to distinguish these events
unless unique cookies are used.
The previous behavior resulted in wpa_supplicant getting quite
confused about the driver's offchannel state in various sequences
and this made the P2P state machine behave incorrectly. Use of
more than a single remain-on-channel cookie value fixes this.

In order to allow user space based control of power parameters, we use
available debugfs infrastructure. With these features user can control
power consumption by adjusting various sleep/wake up related parameters.
The feature has been added for testing purposes. All 5 parameters are
mandatory in correct order. They have to be written to the power_params
file. These are:
1) idle_period
2) no_of_pspoll
3) dtim_policy
4) tx_wakeup_policy
5) no_tx_to_wakeup
Example:
echo "200 1 0 1 1" > power_params

In order to allow user space based control of listen interval, we use
available debugfs infrastructure. Listen interval implies how frequently
we want the WLAN chip to wake up and synchronize the beacons in case it
is in sleep mode. The command requires two parameters in the following order:
1) listen_interval_time
2) listen_interval_beacons
The user has to write the listen interval_time (in msecs) and
listen_interval_beacons (in no. of beacons) to the listen_interval file in
ath6kl debug directory.
Example:
echo "30 1" > listen_interval
