During a hw restart, mac80211 will attempt to reconfigure all stations. Currently, that fails and leads to warnings because we still have the stations marked active. Therefore, clear all stations when doing down. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com>

Remove the check before invoking iwl_set_ht_add_station(), since neither of the conditions in this check makes sense, as either we pass in a NULL ht_info (first branch) or in the IBSS case an ht_info with ht_enabled=false.

Since we now store the station ID in each station struct, many places need not look at the station table any more since they can just pull the station ID out of the struct. Remove iwl_get_sta_id() and use iwl_sta_id() instead as appropriate. This reduces the amount of code needed to find the right station significantly, and works since mac80211 passes the station only after it has been fully initialised, ie. even if TX races with station addition it will only be passed to TX once the addition is complete.

mac80211 allows us to store private data per station, so put the station ID there. This allows us to avoid the station ID lookup when removing regular stations. To also be able to avoid the lookup to remove the special IBSS BSSID station, track its ID in the per-vif private data.

When station is using an HT channel to communicate to AP and communication is lost then driver will first be notified that channel is not an HT channel anymore before AP station is removed. A consequence of that is that the driver will know that it is not communicating on HT anymore, but the rate scaling table is still under the impression it is operating in HT. Any time after driver has been notified channel is not HT anymore there will thus be a firmware SYSASSERT when the current active LQ command is sent. A workaround for this issue is to not send a LQ command in the short time between being notified channel is not HT anymore and rate scaling table being updated.

Currently, the broadcast station is managed along with the interface type, rather than always being present. That leads to a bug with injection -- it is currently not possible to inject frames when the only virtual interface is a monitor, because in that the required broadcast station is missing. Additionally, allocating and deallocating the broadcast station's LQ all the time is wasteful, and the code to support this is fairly complex. So this changes completely the way we manage the broadcast station. Rather than manage it along with any interface, we now allocate it when we bring the device up, and remove it again when we bring the device down. When we bring the device up, we don't immediately program the broadcast station into it, instead we just mark it active and rely on the next restore cycle to upload it to the device. This works because an unassociated RXON is always required at least once to set up device parameters, which implies a reprogramming of stations into the device. As we now manage all stations properly, there no longer is a need for forcing a clearing of them via iwl_clear_ucode_stations(), which can become a lot simpler.

The "is_ap" argument to iwl_sta_init_lq is never true, so it and the corresponding code can be removed. However, it needs to have the station ID because it is also used for the IBSS BSSID station, and that doesn't have the broadcast ID.

Since iwl_configure_filter can now sleep since the mac80211 callback was changed, we can now apply filter flags changes directly. Also, while at it, make the code a bit more generic with a local macro. There's no need to check changed_flags since we apply all at the same time anyway.

Currently iwlwifi will eventually exhaust the station table when adding the BSSID station for IBSS mode, unless the interface is set down.

When adding the broadcast station the link quality command is generated on demand, sent to device, and disappears. It is thus not available for later cases when we need to restore stations and need to send the link quality command afterwards. Now, when first adding the broadcast station, also generate its link quality command to always be available for later restoring. Also fix an issue when adding local stations where the "in progress" state is never cleared.
