When doing transfers at high speed for long time, tx queue can freeze. So add
tx watchdog. TX-watchdog checks for locked tx-urbs and reset hardware when
such is detected. Merely unlinking urb was not enough, device have to be
reseted. Hw settings are restored so that any open link will stay on after
reset.

Device command timeouts are set up very high (1 sec) and this causes
AP beacon to lock up for long for example. Checking timeouts on device
it's easy to see that 1 sec timeout is not needed, when device fails
to response longer timeout doesn't help:

Beacon config function writes beacon to hw one write per byte. This is very
slow (usually taking more than 100ms to finish) and causes high CPU usage
when in AP-mode (kworker at ~50% on Intel Atom N270). By batching commands
together zd_mac_config_beacon() runtime can be lowered to 1/5th and lower
CPU usage to saner levels (<10% on Atom).

When doing tx/rx at high packet rate (for example simply using ping -f),
device starts to fail to respond to control messages. On non-AP modes
this only causes problems for LED updating code but when we are running
in AP-mode we are writing new beacon to HW usually every 100ms. Now if
control message fails in HW beacon setup, device lock is kept locked
and beacon data partially written. This can and usually does cause:
1. HW beacon setup fail now on, as driver cannot acquire device lock.
2. Beacon-done interrupt stop working as device has incomplete beacon.
Therefore make zd_mac_config_beacon() always try to release device lock
and add beacon watchdog to restart beaconing when stall is detected.
Also fix zd_mac_config_beacon() try acquiring device lock for max 500ms,
as what old code appeared to be trying to do using loop and msleep(1).

For reasons not very clear yet to me, filter_ack leaves matching tx-packet
pending with 'ack_pending'. This causes tx-packet to be passed back to upper
layer after next packet has been transfered and tx-packets might end up
coming come out of monitor interface in wrong order vs. rx.
Because of this when enable AP-mode, hostapd monitor interface would get
packets in wrong order causing problems in WPA association.
So don't use mac->ack_pending when in AP-mode.

Vendor driver uses CR_BNC_INTERVAL at various places, one is HW_EnableBeacon()
that combinies beacon interval with BSS-type flag and DTIM value in upper 16bit
of u32. The other one is HW_UpdateBcnInterval() that set_aw_pt_bi()
appears to be based on. HW_UpdateBcnInterval() takes interval argument as u16
and uses that for calculations, set_aw_pt_bi() uses u32 value that has flags
and dtim in upper part. This clearly seems wrong. Also HW_UpdateBcnInterval()
updates only lower 16bit part of CR_BNC_INTERVAL. So make set_aw_pt_bi() do
calculations on only lower u16 part of s->beacon_interval.
Also set 32bit beacon interval register before reading values from device,
as HW_EnableBeacon() on vendor driver does. This is required to make beacon
work on AP-mode, simply reading and then writing updated values is not enough
at least with zd1211b.

When stress testing AP-mode I hit OOPS when unpluging or rmmodding
driver.
It appears that when tx-queue is disabled, tx-urbs might be left pending.
These can cause ehci to call non-existing tx_urb_complete() (after rmmod)
or uninitialized/reseted private structure (after disconnect()). Add skb
queue for submitted packets and unlink pending urbs on zd_usb_disable_tx().
Part of the problem seems to be usb->free_urb_list that isn't always
working as it should, causing machine freeze when trying to free the list
in zd_usb_disable_tx(). Caching free urbs isn't what other drivers seem
to be doing (usbnet for example) so strip free_usb_list.
Patch makes tx-urb handling saner with use of urb anchors.

The queue stopping/waking functionality was broken in a way that could
cause the TX to stall if the right circumstances are met.
The problem was caused by tx_work, which is scheduled on each TX operation.
If the firmware buffer is full, tx_work does nothing. In combinition with
stopped queues or non-continues transfers, tx_work is never scheduled again.
Moreover the low watermark introduced by
9df86e2e70 never takes effect because of some
old code.
Solve this by scheduling tx_work every time tx_queue is non-empty and
firmware buffer is freed on tx_complete.
This also solves a possible but unlikely case: If less frames than the high
watermark are queued, but more than firmware buffer can hold. This results
in queues staying awake but the only scheduled tx_work doesn't transfer all
frames, so the remaining frames are stuck in the queue until more frames
get queued and tx_work is scheduled again.
