ath10k: implement NAPI support
Add NAPI support for rx and tx completion. NAPI poll is scheduled
from interrupt handler. The design is as below
- on interrupt
- schedule napi and mask interrupts
- on poll
- process all pipes (no actual Tx/Rx)
- process Rx within budget
- if quota exceeds budget reschedule napi poll by returning budget
- process Tx completions and update budget if necessary
- process Tx fetch indications (pull-push)
- push any other pending Tx (if possible)
- before resched or napi completion replenish htt rx ring buffer
- if work done < budget, complete napi poll and unmask interrupts
This change also get rid of two tasklets (intr_tq and txrx_compl_task).
Measured peak throughput with NAPI on IPQ4019 platform in controlled
environment. No noticeable reduction in throughput is seen and also
observed improvements in CPU usage. Approx. 15% CPU usage got reduced
in UDP uplink case.
