mac80211: backport brcmfmac changes from 2016-09-27

This fixes bug that could cause WARNING on every add_key/del_key call.
It also replaces WARNING with a simple message. They may still occur
e.g. on station going out of range and A-MPDU stall in the firmware.

Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: replace WARNING on timeout with a simple error
message
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Even with timeout increased to 950 ms we get WARNINGs from time to time.
It mostly happens on A-MPDU stalls (e.g. when station goes out of
range). It may take up to 5-10 secods for the firmware to recover and
for that time it doesn't process packets.
It's still useful to have a message on time out as it may indicate some
firmware problem and incorrect key update. Raising a WARNING however
wasn't really that necessary, it doesn't point to any driver bug anymore
and backtrace wasn't much useful.

Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: use correct skb freeing helper when deleting
flowring
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Flowrings contain skbs waiting for transmission that were passed to us
by netif. It means we checked every one of them looking for 802.1x
Ethernet type. When deleting flowring we have to use freeing function
that will check for 802.1x type as well.
Freeing skbs without a proper check was leading to counter not being
properly decreased. This was triggering a WARNING every time
brcmf_netdev_wait_pend8021x was called.
