Add WCN3990 QMI client handshakes for Q6 integrated WLAN connectivity
subsystem. This layer is responsible for communicating qmi control
messages to wifi fw QMI service using QMI messaging protocol.
Qualcomm MSM Interface(QMI) is a messaging format used to communicate
between components running between application processor and remote
processors with underlying transport layer based on integrated
chipset(shared memory) or discrete chipset(PCI/USB/SDIO/UART).
With this patch-set basic functionality(STA/SAP) can be tested
with WCN3990 chipset. The changes are verified with the firmware
WLAN.HL.2.0-01192-QCAHLSWMTPLZ-1 and SDM845 MTP device.

BTW, do you really need this event loop? It's quite awkward, it would
be
much cleaner to call the code directly. Or if you need a work queue for
a certain function call, create a specific workqueue. Don't add a
generic loop like this.
This is required for serialization of southbound events(from server to
clients).
In cases where we have fatal error in server side during early
handshakes, serialization helps
to process the events in order to handle driver recovery in correct
state.
Didn't Bjorn mention something along the lines of that it's not needed
in earlier review?
Bjorn also suggested to handle them in event driven manner.
Thanks,
