+ * Rx SRAM Control and Status Registers (RSCSR)
+ *
+ * These registers provide handshake between driver and 4965 for the Rx queue
+ * (this queue handles *all* command responses, notifications, Rx data, etc.
+ * sent from 4965 uCode to host driver).  Unlike Tx, there is only one Rx
+ * queue, and only one Rx DMA/FIFO channel.  Also unlike Tx, which can
+ * concatenate up to 20 DRAM buffers to form a Tx frame, each Receive Buffer
+ * Descriptor (RBD) points to only one Rx Buffer (RB); there is a 1:1
+ * mapping between RBDs and RBs.
+ *
+ * Driver must allocate host DRAM memory for the following, and set the
+ * physical address of each into 4965 registers:
+ *
+ * 1)  Receive Buffer Descriptor (RBD) circular buffer (CB), typically with 256
+ *     entries (although any power of 2, up to 4096, is selectable by driver).
+ *     Each entry (1 dword) points to a receive buffer (RB) of consistent size
+ *     (typically 4K, although 8K or 16K are also selectable by driver).
+ *     Driver sets up RB size and number of RBDs in the CB via Rx config
+ *     register FH_MEM_RCSR_CHNL0_CONFIG_REG.
+ *
+ *     Bit fields within one RBD:
+ *     27-0:  Receive Buffer physical address bits [35:8], 256-byte aligned
+ *
+ *     Driver sets physical address [35:8] of base of RBD circular buffer
+ *     into FH_RSCSR_CHNL0_RBDCB_BASE_REG [27:0].
+ *
+ * 2)  Rx status buffer, 8 bytes, in which 4965 indicates which Rx Buffers
+ *     (RBs) have been filled, via a "write pointer", actually the index of
+ *     the RB's corresponding RBD within the circular buffer.  Driver sets
+ *     physical address [35:4] into FH_RSCSR_CHNL0_STTS_WPTR_REG [31:0].
+ *
+ *     Bit fields in lower dword of Rx status buffer (upper dword not used
+ *     by driver; see struct iwl4965_shared, val0):
+ *     31-12:  Not used by driver
+ *     11- 0:  Index of last filled Rx buffer descriptor
+ *             (4965 writes, driver reads this value)
+ *
+ * As the driver prepares Receive Buffers (RBs) for 4965 to fill, driver must
+ * enter pointers to these RBs into contiguous RBD circular buffer entries,
+ * and update the 4965's "write" index register, FH_RSCSR_CHNL0_RBDCB_WPTR_REG.
+ *
+ * This "write" index corresponds to the *next* RBD that the driver will make
+ * available, i.e. one RBD past the tail of the ready-to-fill RBDs within
+ * the circular buffer.  This value should initially be 0 (before preparing any
+ * RBs), should be 8 after preparing the first 8 RBs (for example), and must
+ * wrap back to 0 at the end of the circular buffer (but don't wrap before
+ * "read" index has advanced past 1!  See below).
+ * NOTE:  4965 EXPECTS THE WRITE INDEX TO BE INCREMENTED IN MULTIPLES OF 8.
+ *
+ * As the 4965 fills RBs (referenced from contiguous RBDs within the circular
+ * buffer), it updates the Rx status buffer in host DRAM, 2) described above,
+ * to tell the driver the index of the latest filled RBD.  The driver must
+ * read this "read" index from DRAM after receiving an Rx interrupt from 4965.
+ *
+ * The driver must also internally keep track of a third index, which is the
+ * next RBD to process.  When receiving an Rx interrupt, driver should process
+ * all filled but unprocessed RBs up to, but not including, the RB
+ * corresponding to the "read" index.  For example, if "read" index becomes "1",
+ * driver may process the RB pointed to by RBD 0.  Depending on volume of
+ * traffic, there may be many RBs to process.
+ *
+ * If read index == write index, 4965 thinks there is no room to put new data.
+ * Due to this, the maximum number of filled RBs is 255, instead of 256.  To
+ * be safe, make sure that there is a gap of at least 2 RBDs between "write"
+ * and "read" indexes; that is, make sure that there are no more than 254
+ * buffers waiting to be filled.
