Message

V2:
- Drops work-around for scan in progress
  This is not required on a tip of tree kernel - Kalle
- Churn out "this patch" form commit logs - Kalle
- Adds comment about packing structures to commit log patch #8 - Kalle
- Moves enablement of magic-packet and GTK rekey to last patch
  This means that the functionality is only switched on when the full
  series has been applied - Kalle

V1:
This series enables Wake on WLAN for the wcn36xx. Downstream implements two
competing methods for WoWLAN, only one of which is used in practice.

1. The downstream prima driver and firmware have a dedicated wowlan SMD
   command set, however for whatever reason, the downstream driver doesn't
   actually use that code path for suspend/resume.
   Similarly the downstream kernel will mask out the SMD interrupt when
   entering into suspend, so its clear the firmware assisted wowlan command
   is not used at all.
   In short, the code is implemented but not used.

2. The alternative version of wake on wlan implemented downstream does
   A. An RXP filter
   B. Frimware ipv4 ARP offload
   C. Frimware ipv6 namesapece offload
   D. GTK replay counter save/update on suspend/resume

This patchset replicates method #2 since it is the only method that
actually works. When replicating the functionality from downstream to
upsteam I found the RXP filter step to be redundant, so I skipped that.

Verified on Android/4.19 with qcom out-of-tree low-power patch on wcn3680.
Verified on Debian/kvalo/master on wcn3680 and wcn3620.

The Debian/upstream test doesn't include the low-power patches from qcom so
the time it takes the system to wake up when pinged is longer.

Test method:

1. Enable magic packet wakeup on target
   iw phy0 wowlan enable magic-packet
   iw phy0 wowlan show

2. Flush arp tables on host
   sudo ip -s -s neigh flush all
   sudo ip -6 -s -s neigh flush all

3. Suspend device
   echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/clk/debug_suspend
   echo mem > /sys/power/state ; cat /sys/kernel/debug/rpm_stats
   echo 0 > /sys/module/wcn36xx/parameters/debug_mask
   dmesg

4. Ping either ipv4 or ipv6
   ping 192.168.0.85
   ping -6 fe80::6455:44ff:fe33:2211%wlo1

In both cases using Wireshark we see the target system receive an ARP or
NS6 lookup and respond, followed by the host sending a ping or ping6 and
the target system coming out of suspend.

Similarly watching GTK keying on the AP when the device is in suspend, we
see the firmware successfully rekey and when we resume, the host picking up
the rekey material with persistence of the WiFi link during suspend/resume.

commit: 5336fad96e8f ("wcn36xx: Enable firmware offloaded keepalive")
ensures that the link is kept alive in suspend, this additional set gives
the ability to 

- Resolve ARP/NS6 lookups without waking the system
- Rekeying in suspend
- Suspending and resuming based on received datagram
