On device to host data using msgbuf the read pointer gets updated
once all data is processed. Updating this pointer more frequently
allows the firmware to add more data quicker. This will result in
slightly higher and more stable throughput on CPU bounded host
processors.

The tx flow worker in msgbuf gets scheduled at tx till a certain
threshold has been reached. Then the tx completes will take over
the scheduling. When amsdu and ampdu is used the frames are
transferred wireless in a very bulky fashion, in combination
with this scheduling algorithm and buffer limiters in the stack
this can result in limited throughput. This change causes the
flow worker to be scheduled more frequently from tx.

Msgbuf is using a wait_event_timeout to wait for the response on
an ioctl. The wakeup routine uses waitqueue_active to see if
wait_event_timeout has been called. There is a chance that the
response arrives before wait_event_timeout is called, this
will result in situation that wait_event_timeout never gets
woken again and assumed result will be a timeout. This patch
removes that errornous situation by always setting the
ctl_completed var before checking for queue active.

On every tx the flow worker is triggered. When running high
throughput data this causes an excessive amount of times the worker
gets activated. This patch starts scheduling the worker more relaxed
once outstanding tx has reached a certain depth.

When there is no room in the ring for rxbufpost an error is logged,
however this happens quite frequently and can be considered normal
and is certainly recoverable. This patch changes the erorr into

The physical addresses being used by pcie and msgbuf were using
a cast to long, which incorrectly caused it to limit the address
to 32bit. Now explicit u64 is used where needed.

their argument is NULL and then return immediately. Thus the test around

Msgbuf is using GFP_ATOMIC where GFP_KERNEL is also sufficient. On
some platforms the coherent DMA memory is very limited when using
GFP_ATOMIC. This patch changes usage of GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_KERNEL and
uses worker to make this possible for creation of flowring.

This patch will add the msgbuf protocol. This protocol is used by
the soon to be added new bus interface PCIe. Msgbuf is a protocol
where most data is and remains located on the host (driver) side
and transferred by DMA from and to device. Msgbuf is the protocol
which takes care of the signalling of the buffers between host and
device which identifies this DMA-able data.
