Now that we've removed all uses of the set_channel
API except for the monitor channel and in libertas,
clarify this. Split the libertas mesh use into a
new libertas_set_mesh_channel() operation, just to

set_channel() to set_monitor_channel().
Also describe the desired set_monitor_channel()

Allow the driver to wake/stop the queues for multiple reasons. A queue
is started when no stop-reasons exist.
Convert all wake/stop queue calls to use the new API.
Before, a stopped queue was almost synonymous a high-watermark on Tx.
Remove a bit of code in wl12xx_tx_reset() that relied on it.
Internal packets arriving from mac80211 are also discarded when a queue
is stopped. A notable exception to this is the watermark reason, which
is a "soft"-stop reason. We allow traffic to gradually come to a halt,
but we don't mind spurious packets here and there. This is merely a flow

The EEPROM reading/parsing code is all mixed in
the driver today, and the EEPROM is parsed only
when we access data from it. This is problematic
because the NVM needs to be parsed and that is
independent of reading it. Also, the NVM format
for new devices will be different and probably
require a new parser.
Therefore refactor the reading and parsing and
create two independent components. Reading the
EEPROM requires direct hardware accesses and
therefore access to the transport, but parsing
is independent and can be done on an NVM blob.

The scheduler can issue an interrupt when moving the read
pointer. To get this interrupt, the driver needs to
configure what queue can issue an interrupt when its read
pointer moves in the scheduler: this is the SCD_INT_MSK.
The driver also needs to enable the interrupt in
CSR_INT_MASK (bit CSR_INT_BIT_SCD).
Since we don't enable the scheduler interrupt in
CSR_INT_MASK, there is no point in requesting an interrupt
from the scheduler: it will be masked anyway. So don't
configure the scheduler to issue interrupts at all.

Just like the AP mode patch, instead of setting
the channel and then joining the mesh network,
provide the channel to join the network on to
the join_mesh() function.
Like in AP mode, you can also give the channel
to the join-mesh nl80211 command now.
Unlike AP mode, it picks a default channel if
none was given.
As libertas uses mesh mode interfaces but has
no join_mesh callback and we can't simply break
it, keep some compatibility code for that case
and configure the channel directly for it.
In the non-libertas case, where we store the
channel until join, allow setting it while the

This means that now you have to set the channel
before you can start an AP interface, but since

with this change.
Alternatively, it's now possible to give the
channel as an attribute to the start-ap nl80211
