[PATCH 1/8] wiphy: introduce new radio management APIs
by James Prestwood
These APIs will handle fairness and order in any operations which
radios can only do sequentially (offchannel, scanning, connection etc.).
Both scan and frame-xchg are complex modules (especially scanning)
which is why the radio management APIs were implemented generic enough
where the changes to both modules will be minimal. Any module that
requires this kind of work can push a work item into the radio
management work queue (wiphy_radio_work_insert) and when the work
is ready to be started radio management will call back into the module.
Once the work is completed (and this may be some time later e.g. in
scan results or a frame watch) the module can signal back that the
work is finished (wiphy_radio_work_done). Wiphy will then pop the
queue and continue with the next work item.
A concept of priority was added in order to allow important offchannel
operations (e.g. ANQP) to take priority over other work items. The
priority is an integer, where lower values are of a higher priority.
The concept of priority cleanly solves a lot of the complexity that
was added in order to support ANQP queries (suspending scanning and
waiting for ANQP to finish before connecting).
Instead ANQP queries can be queued at a higher priority than scanning
which removes the need for suspending scans. In addition we can treat
connections as radio management work and insert them at a lower
priority than ANQP, but higher than scanning. This forces the
connection to wait for ANQP without having to track any state.

v3:
- Moved functionality into wiphy, since the work queues are directly
tied to each wiphy object anyways.
- Added in_cb/stale members for more flexibility in signaling a work
item done. Now either the callback return can be used to signal done
or wiphy_radio_work_done can be used while still in the work callback.
This allows for easier integration to existing modules where it may
not be easy to return the status of the work item without major
refactoring.
