libertas: detect TX lockups and reset hardware
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.
