ath10k: add reset ctrl related functions in ahb

To perform reset on qca4019 wifi, multiple reset lines needs
to be toggled in a sequence with help of reset controller support
in the kernel. This patch adds functions to reset control init/deinit
and release reset.

ath10k: add basic skeleton to support ahb

qca4019 uses ahb instead of pci where it slightly differs in device
enumeration, clock control, reset control, etc. Good thing is that
ahb also uses copy engine for the data transaction. So, the most of
the stuff implemented in pci.c/ce.c are reusable in ahb case too.

Device enumeration in ahb case comes through platform driver/device
model. All resource details like irq, memory map, clocks, etc for
qca4019 can be fetched from of_node of platform device.

Simply flow would look like,

device tree => platform device (kernel) => platform driver (ath10k)

Device tree entry will have all qca4019 resource details and the same
info will be passed to kernel. Kernel will prepare new platform device
for that entry and expose DT info to of_node in platform device.
Later, ath10k would register platform driver with unique compatible name
and then kernels binds to corresponding compatible entry & calls ath10k
ahb probe functions. From there onwards, ath10k will take control of it
and move forward.

New bool flag CONFIG_ATH10K_AHB is added in Kconfig to conditionally
enable ahb support in ath10k. On enabling this flag, ath10k_pci.ko
will have ahb support. This patch adds only basic skeleton and few
macros to support ahb in the context of qca4019.

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:

1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.

Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.

skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.

There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.

Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.

Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net

Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.

I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.

2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.

3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From
Govindarajulu Varadarajan.

4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.

5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
Dumazet.

6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom
Herbert.

7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
Fainelli.

8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.

9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John
Fastabend.

10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
Duyck.

11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric
Dumazet.

12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From

====================
pull request: wireless-next 2014-10-03

Please pull tihs batch of updates intended for the 3.18 stream!

For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:

"I have here a few things that depend on the latest mac80211's changes:
RRM, TPC, Quiet Period etc... Eyal keeps improving our rate control
and we have a new device ID. This last patch should probably have
gone to wireless.git, but at that stage, I preferred to send it to
-next and CC stable."

For (most of) the Atheros bits, Kalle says:

"The only new feature is testmode support from me. Ben added a new method
to crash the firmware with an assert for debug purposes. As usual, we
have lots of smaller fixes from Michal. Matteo fixed a Kconfig
dependency with debugfs. I fixed some warnings recently added to
checkpatch."

For the NFC bits, Samuel says:

"We've had major updates for TI and ST Microelectronics drivers, and a
few NCI related changes.

For TI's trf7970a driver:

- Target mode support for trf7970a
- Suspend/resume support for trf7970a
- DT properties additions to handle different quirks
- A bunch of fixes for smartphone IOP related issues

For ST Microelectronics' ST21NFCA and ST21NFCB drivers:

- ISO15693 support for st21nfcb
- checkpatch and sparse related warning fixes
- Code cleanups and a few minor fixes

Finally, Marvell added ISO15693 support to the NCI stack, together with a
couple of NCI fixes."

For the Bluetooth bits, Johan says:

"This 3.18 pull request replaces the one I did on Monday ("bluetooth-next
2014-09-22", which hasn't been pulled yet). The additions since the last
request are:

- SCO connection fix for devices not supporting eSCO
- Cleanups regarding the SCO establishment logic
- Remove unnecessary return value from logging functions
- Header compression fix for 6lowpan
- Cleanups to the ieee802154/mrf24j40 driver

Here's a copy from previous request that this one replaces:

'
Here are some more patches for 3.18. They include various fixes to the
btusb HCI driver, a fix for LE SMP, as well as adding Jukka to the
MAINTAINERS file for generic 6LoWPAN (as requested by Alexander Aring).

I've held on to this pull request a bit since we were waiting for a SCO
related fix to get sorted out first. However, since the merge window is
getting closer I decided not to wait for it. If we do get the fix sorted
out there'll probably be a second small pull request later this week.
'"

And,

"Unless 3.17 gets delayed this will probably be our last -next pull request for
3.18. We've got:

- New Marvell hardware supportr
- Multicast support for 6lowpan
- Several of 6lowpan fixes & cleanups
- Fix for a (false-positive) lockdep warning in L2CAP
- Minor btusb cleanup"

On top of all that comes the usual sort of updates to ath5k, ath9k,
ath10k, brcmfmac, mwifiex, and wil6210. This time around there are
also a number of rtlwifi updates to enable some new hardware and
to reconcile the in-kernel drivers with some newer releases of the
Realtek vendor drivers. Also of note is some device tree work for
the bcma bus.

Please pull this batch of updates intended for the 3.18 stream...

For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"Not that much content this time. Some RCU cleanups, crypto
performance improvements, and various patches all over,
rather than listing them one might as well look into the
git log instead."

For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:

"The changes consists of:

- Coding style fixes to HCI drivers
- Corrupted ack value fix for the H5 HCI driver
- A couple of Enhanced L2CAP fixes
- Conversion of SMP code to use common L2CAP channel API
- Page scan optimizations when using the kernel-side whitelist
- Various mac802154 and and ieee802154 6lowpan cleanups
- One new Atheros USB ID"

For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:

"We have a new big thing coming up which is called Dynamic Queue
Allocation (or DQA). This is a completely new way to work with the
Tx queues and it requires major refactoring. This is being done by
Johannes and Avri. Besides this, Johannes disables U-APSD by default
because of APs that would disable A-MPDU if the association supports
U-ASPD. Luca contributed to the power area which he was cleaning
up on the way while working on CSA. A few more random things here
and there."

For the Atheros bits, Kalle says:

"For ath6kl we had two small fixes and a new SDIO device id.

For ath10k the bigger changes are:

* support for new firmware version 10.2 (Michal)

* spectral scan support (Simon, Sven & Mathias)

* export a firmware crash dump file (Ben & me)

* cleaning up of pci.c (Michal)

* print pci id in all messages, which causes most of the churn (Michal)"

Beyond that, we have the usual collection of various updates to ath9k,
b43, mwifiex, and wil6210, as well as a few other bits here and there.
