The USB drivers don't support automatically waking up when in powersaving mode,
add a work object which will wakeup the device in time to receive the next beacon.
Based on that beacon, we either go back into powersaving mode, or we remain awake
to receive the buffered frames for our station.
Some part of the code, especially rt2x00lib_find_ie and rt2x00lib_rxdone_check_ps
are inspired on the code from carl9170.

When the callback function returns true, resubmit the urb to

If an interface type changes from a type that is
only supported on the PAN context (e.g. P2P GO)
to a type that is supported on the BSS context,
and the BSS context is not in use, then we need
to use the BSS context instead of changing the
device type within the context. To achieve this,
refuse the type change, which causes a down/up
cycle that will allocate the BSS context for the

If a device error happens while the uCode is
being loaded or initialised, we will attempt
to restart the device (which will likely fail
again, but that's not the issue here). During
this new restart, we turn off the device, but
as the uCode failed to initialise it already
is turned off. As a consequence, grabbing NIC
access will fail and cause excessive messages
and hangs.
To fix this issue, introduce a new status bit
and only attempt to reprogram the device when
it isn't already disabled.

The tx_headroom required for mwl8k driver is 32 bytes and it
can use the space for 802.11 header received from mac80211.
mwl8k considers the smallest 802.11 frame (CTS2self of 10
bytes) that can be received from mac80211 to compute the
extra_tx_headroom as 22 (32 - 10) bytes.
When the wireless interface is part of bridge, this
extra_tx_headroom requirement results in a memcpy in
mac80211 (in function pskb_expand_head) for all the data
frames needing L2 forwarding/bridging, when NET_SKB_PAD is
defined as 32. This patch reduces the extra_tx_headroom by
8 bytes so that memcpy of data frames in mac80211 is
avoided in this case.
The resize will be required in driver for frames with 802.11
header size of less than 18 bytes.

iwlwifi: do not set tx power when channel is changing
we set device tx power during initialization to priv->tx_power_next,
which itself is initialized to minimum power. That changed
default behaviour of driver. Previously we initialized device to
transmit at maximum available power by default. Patch change again
to previous behaviour and cleanup tx power initialization.
Fortunately this is not critical fix, as mac80211 layer setup
tx power lately to 14dB, hence device does not operate at minimal
transmit power all the time.
