The DMA channel of firmware command doesn't use TX WD (WiFi descriptor), so
don't need to consider number of TX WD as factor of TX resource. Otherwise,
during pause state (a transient state to switch to/from low power mode)
firmware commands could be dropped and driver throws warnings suddenly:
rtw89_8852ce 0000:04:00.0: no tx fwcmd resource
rtw89_8852ce 0000:04:00.0: failed to send h2c
The case we met is that driver sends RSSI strength of firmware command at
RX path that could be running concurrently with switching low power mode.
The missing of this firmware command doesn't affect user experiences,
because the RSSI strength will be updated again after a while.
The DMA descriptors of normal packets has three layers like:
+-------+
| TX BD | (*n elements)
+-------+
|
| +-------+
+-> | TX WD | (*m elements)
+-------+

And, firmware command queue (TXCH 12) is a special queue that has only
two layers:

| TX BD | (*n elements)

Currently, for each completion, we check the number of descriptor queue
and take it via mlxsw_pci_{sdq,rdq}_get(). This is inefficient, the
DQ should be the same for all the completions in CQ, as each CQ handles
only one DQ - SDQ or RDQ. This mapping is handled as part of DQ
initialization via mlxsw_cmd_mbox_sw2hw_dq_cq_set().
Instead, as part of DQ initialization, set DQ pointer in the appropriate
CQ structure. When we handle completions, warn in case that the DQ number
that we expect is different from the number we get in the CQE. Call
WARN_ON_ONCE() only after checking the value, to avoid calling this method
for each completion.

The number of SDQs is stored as part of 'mlxsw_pci' structure. In some
cases, the driver uses this value and in some cases it calls
mlxsw_pci_sdq_count() to get the value. Align the code to use the
stored value. This simplifies the code and makes it clearer that the
value is always the same. Rename 'mlxsw_pci->num_sdq_cqs' to
'mlxsw_pci->num_sdqs' as now it is used not only in CQ context.

Completion queues are used for completions of RDQ or SDQ. Each
completion queue is used for one DQ. The first CQs are used for SDQs and
the rest are used for RDQs.
Currently, for each CQE (completion queue element), we check 'sr' value
(send/receive) to know if it is completion of RDQ or SDQ. Actually, we
do not really have to check it, as according to the queue number we know
if it handles completions of Rx or Tx.
Break the tasklet into two - one for Rx (RDQ) and one for Tx (SDQ). Then,
setup the appropriate tasklet for each queue as part of queue
initialization. Use 'sr' value for unlikely case that we get completion
with type that we do not expect. Call WARN_ON_ONCE() only after checking
the value, to avoid calling this method for each completion.
A next patch set will use NAPI to handle events, then we will have a
separate poll method for Rx and Tx. This change is a preparation for
NAPI usage.

The device supports two event queues. EQ0 is used for command interface
completion events. EQ1 is used for completion events of RDQ or SDQ.
Currently, for each EQE (event queue element), we check the queue number
and handle accordingly. More than that, for each interrupt we schedule
tasklets for both EQs. This is really ineffective, especially because of
the fact that EQ0 is used only as part of driver init/fini, when EMADs are
not available. There is no point to schedule the tasklet for it and check
each EQE.
A previous patch changed the code to poll command interface for each use of
it. It means that now there is no real reason to use EQ0, as we poll the
command interface.
Initialize only one event queue and use it as EQ1 (this is determined by
queue number). Then, for each interrupt we can schedule the tasklet only
for one queue and we do not have to check the queue number. This
simplifies the code and should improve performance. Note that polling
command interface is ok as we use it only as part of driver init/fini.

Command interface is used for configuring and querying FW when EMADs are
not available. During the time that the driver sets up the asynchronous
queues, it polls the command interface for getting completions. Then,
there is a short period when asynchronous queues work, but EMADs are not
available (marked in the code as nopoll = true). During this time, we
send commands via command interface, but we do not poll it, as we can get
an interrupt for the completion. Completions of command interface are
received from HW in EQ0 (event queue 0).
The usage of EQ0 instead of polling is done only 4 times during
initialization and one time during tear down, but it makes an overhead
during lifetime of the driver. For each interrupt, we have to check if
we get events in EQ0 or EQ1 and handle them. This is really ineffective,
especially because of the fact that EQ0 is used only as part of driver
init/fini.
Instead, we can poll command interface for each call of cmd_exec(). It
means that when we send a command via command interface (as EMADs are
not available), we will poll it, regardless of availability of the
asynchronous queues. This will allow us to configure later only EQ1 and
simplify the flow.
Remove 'nopoll' indication and change mlxsw_pci_cmd_exec() to poll till
answer/timeout regardless of queues' state. For now, completions are
handled also by EQ0, but it will be removed in next patch. Additional
cleanups will be added in next patches.
