If we fail to add an interface in mwifiex_add_virtual_intf(), we might
hit a BUG_ON() in the networking code, because we didn't tear things
down properly. Among the problems:
(a) when failing to allocate workqueues, we fail to unregister the
netdev before calling free_netdev()
(b) even if we do try to unregister the netdev, we're still holding the
rtnl lock, so the device never properly unregistered; we'll be at
state NETREG_UNREGISTERING, and then hit free_netdev()'s:
BUG_ON(dev->reg_state != NETREG_UNREGISTERED);
(c) we're allocating some dependent resources (e.g., DFS workqueues)
after we've registered the interface; this may or may not cause
problems, but it's good practice to allocate these before registering
(d) we're not even trying to unwind anything when mwifiex_send_cmd() or
mwifiex_sta_init_cmd() fail
To fix these issues, let's:
* add a stacked set of error handling labels, to keep error handling
consistent and properly ordered (resolving (a) and (d))
* move the workqueue allocations before the registration (to resolve
(c); also resolves (b) by avoiding error cases where we have to
unregister)
[Incidentally, it's pretty easy to interrupt the alloc_workqueue() in,
e.g., the following:
iw phy phy0 interface add mlan0 type station
by sending it SIGTERM.]
This bugfix covers commits like commit 7d652034d1 ("mwifiex: channel
switch support for mwifiex"), but parts of this bug exist all the way
back to the introduction of dynamic interface handling in commit
93a1df48d2 ("mwifiex: add cfg80211 handlers add/del_virtual_intf").

This code was duplicated as part of the PCIe FLR code added to this
driver. Let's de-duplicate it to:
* make things easier to read (mwifiex_pcie_free_buffers() now has a
corresponding mwifiex_pcie_alloc_buffers())
* reduce likelihood of bugs
* make error logging equally verbose
* save lines of code!
Also drop some of the commentary that isn't really needed.

For time division multiple access, the wifi and bt take turns to
transmit, but we need to let AP know that wifi is under standby mode by
sending null data to "pretend" entering power saving state using lps
rpwm.
But, the fw does not know if it is the actual power saving mode or just a
fake one to cheat to the AP. Hence, before fw setting the tdma duration,
the fw needs the driver to check the power saving state first.

When driver is going to sleep, it does not leave LPS/IPS, thus the
BTCoex may have mismatch when driver wakes up. To avoid that, BTCoex
needs to clear the IPS/LPS state when it receives a pnp notify, then
it can properly set up the hw when driver wakes up.
Routine ex_btc8821a2ant_pnp_notify() restored.

In file halbtc8192e2ant.c, there are directives that depend on an
undocumented configuration parameter BT_AUTO_REPORT_ONLY_8192E_2ANT
that cannot be set from Kconfig. This parameter is replaced by a

be changed dynamically, but it is easier to document.

The non-atomic test + set is a little awkward here, and it technically
means we might double-schedule work unnecessarily. AFAICT, this is not
really a problem, since the extra "work" will be a no-op (the flag(s)
will be cleared by then), but it's still an anti-pattern.
Rewrite this to use the atomic test_and_set_bit() helper instead.

When running LDom binding/unbinding test, kernel may panic
in ldmvsw_open(). It is more likely that because we're removing
the ldc connection before unregistering the netdev in vsw_port_remove(),
we set up a window of time where one process could be removing the
device while another trying to UP the device. This also sometimes causes
vio handshake error due to opening a device without closing it completely.
We should unregister the netdev before we disable the "hardware".
