[PATCH v2] libertas: detect TX lockups and reset hardware

[Daniel Drake <dsd@laptop.org>]

Recent patches added support for resetting the SD8686 hardware when
commands time out, which seems to happen quite frequently soon after
resuming the system from a Wake-on-WLAN-triggered resume.

At http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10969 we see the same thing happen
with transmits. In this case, the hardware will fail to respond to
a frame passed for transmission, and libertas (correctly) will block
all further commands and transmissions as the hardware can only
deal with one thing at a time. This results in a lockup while the
system waits indefinitely for the dead card to respond.

Hook up a TX lockup timer to detect this and reset the hardware.

v2: regenerated against wireless-next.git. Compared to the first version,
minor changes were needed to the way the timer is stopped when the interface
is brought down (these routines changed as a result of other recent work).
