This patchset introduces per-link PSM for AP-mode. The PS status of each
link is updated from FW.
The wl12xx concept of PSM is different from the mac80211 one - some data
must remain in FW for a link in PSM since the TIM is updated automatically
by FW. This functionality depends on the following mac80211 patch:
"mac80211: add HW flag for disabling auto link-PS in AP mode"

We set up a skb-queue per link which allows for a cleaner link
disconnection and prepares the code for regulating each link separately.

A few other AP-mode related small bug fixes and enchancements are included.

v1->2:
- In first patch, use atomic operations when changing the flags
  variable. It is not always changed within a spinlock/mutex.
- Rebase on latest master of maintainer's git
