In order to align with st21nfca, dts configuration properties
ese_present and uicc_present are made available in st-nci driver.
So far, in early development firmware, because
nci_nfcee_mode_set(DISABLE) was not supported we had to try to
enable it during the secure element discovery phase.
After several trials on commercial and qualified firmware it appears
that nci_nfcee_mode_set(ENABLE) and nci_nfcee_mode_set(DISABLE) are
properly supported.
Such feature also help us to eventually save some time (~5ms) when
only one secure element is connected.

no secure element are activated. It does not consider any
NFC_ATTR_VENDOR_DATA.
- HCI_CLEAR_ALL_PIPES: Allow to execute a HCI clear all pipes
command. It does not consider any NFC_ATTR_VENDOR_DATA.
- HCI_DM_PUT_DATA: Allow to configure specific CLF registry

configurations (I2C, SPI, SWP).
- HCI_DM_UPDATE_AID: Allow to configure an AID routing into the
CLF routing table following RF technology, CLF mode or protocol.
- HCI_DM_GET_INFO: Allow to retrieve CLF information.
- HCI_DM_GET_DATA: Allow to retrieve CLF configurable data such as
low level drivers configurations or RF trimmings.
- HCI_DM_DIRECT_LOAD: Allow to load a firmware into the CLF.
A complete packet can be more than 8KB.
- HCI_DM_RESET: Allow to run a CLF reset in order to "commit" CLF
configuration changes without CLF power off.
- HCI_GET_PARAM: Allow to retrieve an HCI CLF parameter (for example

- HCI_DM_FIELD_GENERATOR: Allow to generate different kind of RF

- HCI_LOOPBACK: Allow to echo a command and test the Dh to CLF

- HCI_DM_FWUPD_START: Allow to put CLF into firmware update mode.
It is a specific CLF command as there is no GPIO for this.
- HCI_DM_FWUPD_END: Allow to complete firmware update.
- HCI_DM_VDC_VALUE_COMPARISON: Allow to compare the field applied

The impact on the power consumption is minimal and it allows

The TIPC broadcast link implementation is currently complex and hard to
follow. It also incurs some amount of code and structure duplication,
something that can be reduced significantly with a little effort.
This commit series introduces a number of improvements which address
both the locking structure, the code/structure duplication issue, and
the overall readbility of the code.
The series consists of three main parts:
1-7: Adaptation to the new link structure, and preparation for the next
step. In particular, we want the broadcast transmission link to
have a life cycle that is longer than any of its potential (unicast
and broadcast receive links) users. This eliminates the need to
always test for the presence of this link before accessing it.
8-10: This is what is really new in this series. Commit #9 is by far
the largest and most important one, because it moves most of
the broadcast functionality into link.c, partially reusing the
fields and functionality of the unicast link. The removal of
the "node_map" infrastructure in commit #10 is also an important
achievement.
11-16: Some improvements leveraging the changes made in the previous
commits.
The series needs commit 53387c4e22ac ("tipc: extend broadcast link window size")
and commit e53567948f82 ("tipc: conditionally expand buffer headroom over udp tunnel")

tipc: ensure binding table initial distribution is sent via first link
Correct synchronization of the broadcast link at first contact between
two nodes is dependent on the assumption that the binding table "bulk"
update passes via the same link as the initial broadcast syncronization
message, i.e., via the first link that is established.
This is not guaranteed in the current implementation. If two link
come up very close to each other in time, the "bulk" may quite well
pass via the second link, and hence void the guarantee of a correct
initial synchronization before the broadcast link is opened.
This commit makes two small changes to strengthen this guarantee.
1) We let the second established link occupy slot 1 of the
"active_links" array, while the first link will retain slot 0.
(This is in reality a cosmetic change, we could just as well keep
the current, opposite order)
2) We let the name distributor always use link selector/slot 0 when
it sends it binding table updates.
The extra traffic bias on the first link caused by this change should
be negligible, since binding table updates constitutes a very small
fraction of the total traffic.

tipc: let neighbor discoverer tranmsit consumable buffers
The neighbor discovery function currently uses the function
tipc_bearer_send() for transmitting packets, assuming that the
sent buffers are not consumed by the called function.
We want to change this, in order to avoid unnecessary buffer cloning
elswhere in the code.
This commit introduces a new function tipc_bearer_skb() which consumes
the sent buffers, and let the discoverer functions use this new call
instead. The discoverer does now itself perform the cloning when
that is necessary.

tipc: simplify bearer level broadcast
Until now, we have been keeping track of the exact set of broadcast
destinations though the help structure tipc_node_map. This leads us to
have to maintain a whole infrastructure for supporting this, including
a pseudo-bearer and a number of functions to manipulate both the bearers
and the node map correctly. Apart from the complexity, this approach is
also limiting, as struct tipc_node_map only can support cluster local
broadcast if we want to avoid it becoming excessively large. We want to
eliminate this limitation, in order to enable introduction of scoped
multicast in the future.
A closer analysis reveals that it is unnecessary maintaining this "full
set" overview; it is sufficient to keep a counter per bearer, indicating
how many nodes can be reached via this bearer at the moment. The protocol
is now robust enough to handle transitional discrepancies between the
nominal number of reachable destinations, as expected by the broadcast
protocol itself, and the number which is actually reachable at the
moment. The initial broadcast synchronization, in conjunction with the
retransmission mechanism, ensures that all packets will eventually be
acknowledged by the correct set of destinations.
This commit introduces these changes.

tipc: let broadcast packet reception use new link receive function
The code path for receiving broadcast packets is currently distinct
from the unicast path. This leads to unnecessary code and data
duplication, something that can be avoided with some effort.
We now introduce separate per-peer tipc_link instances for handling
broadcast packet reception. Each receive link keeps a pointer to the
common, single, broadcast link instance, and can hence handle release
and retransmission of send buffers as if they belonged to the own
instance.
Furthermore, we let each unicast link instance keep a reference to both
the pertaining broadcast receive link, and to the common send link.
This makes it possible for the unicast links to easily access data for
broadcast link synchronization, as well as for carrying acknowledges for
received broadcast packets.

tipc: introduce capability bit for broadcast synchronization
Until now, we have tried to support both the newer, dedicated broadcast
synchronization mechanism along with the older, less safe, RESET_MSG/
ACTIVATE_MSG based one. The latter method has turned out to be a hazard
in a highly dynamic cluster, so we find it safer to disable it completely
when we find that the former mechanism is supported by the peer node.
For this purpose, we now introduce a new capabability bit,
TIPC_BCAST_SYNCH, to inform any peer nodes that dedicated broadcast
syncronization is supported by the present node. The new bit is conveyed
between peers in the 'capabilities' field of neighbor discovery messages.

tipc: make struct tipc_link generic to support broadcast
Realizing that unicast is just a special case of broadcast, we also see
that we can go in the other direction, i.e., that modest changes to the
current unicast link can make it generic enough to support broadcast.
The following changes are introduced here:
- A new counter ("ackers") in struct tipc_link, to indicate how many
peers need to ack a packet before it can be released.
- A corresponding counter in the skb user area, to keep track of how
many peers a are left to ack before a buffer can be released.
- A new counter ("acked"), to keep persistent track of how far a peer
has acked at the moment, i.e., where in the transmission queue to
start updating buffers when the next ack arrives. This is to avoid
double acknowledgements from a peer, with inadvertent relase of
packets as a result.
- A more generic tipc_link_retrans() function, where retransmit starts
from a given sequence number, instead of the first packet in the
transmision queue. This is to minimize the number of retransmitted
packets on the broadcast media.
When the new functionality is taken into use in the next commits,
we expect it to have minimal effect on unicast mode performance.

tipc: use explicit allocation of broadcast send link
The broadcast link instance (struct tipc_link) used for sending is
currently aggregated into struct tipc_bclink. This means that we cannot
use the regular tipc_link_create() function for initiating the link, but
do instead have to initiate numerous fields directly from the
bcast_init() function.
We want to reduce dependencies between the broadcast functionality
and the inner workings of tipc_link. In this commit, we introduce
a new function tipc_bclink_create() to link.c, and allocate the
instance of the link separately using this function.

tipc: make link implementation independent from struct tipc_bearer
In reality, the link implementation is already independent from
struct tipc_bearer, in that it doesn't store any reference to it.
However, we still pass on a pointer to a bearer instance in the
function tipc_link_create(), just to have it extract some
initialization information from it.
I later commits, we need to create instances of tipc_link without
having any associated struct tipc_bearer. To facilitate this, we
want to extract the initialization data already in the creator
function in node.c, before calling tipc_link_create(), and pass
this info on as individual parameters in the call.

tipc: create broadcast transmission link at namespace init
The broadcast transmission link is currently instantiated when the
network subsystem is started, i.e., on order from user space via netlink.
This forces the broadcast transmission code to do unnecessary tests for
the existence of the transmission link, as well in single mode node as
in network mode.
In this commit, we do instead create the link during initialization of
the name space, and remove it when it is stopped. The fact that the
transmission link now has a guaranteed longer life cycle than any of its
potential clients paves the way for further code simplifcations
and optimizations.
