The RTL8723BU suffers the wifi disconnection problem while bluetooth
device connected. While wifi is doing tx/rx, the bluetooth will scan
without results. This is due to the wifi and bluetooth share the same
single antenna for RF communication and they need to have a mechanism
to collaborate.
BT information is provided via the packet sent from co-processor to
host (C2H). It contains the status of BT but the rtl8723bu_handle_c2h
dose not really handle it. And there's no bluetooth coexistence
mechanism to deal with it.
This commit adds a workqueue to set the tdma configurations and
coefficient table per the parsed bluetooth link status and given
wifi connection state. The tdma/coef table comes from the vendor
driver code of the RTL8192EU and RTL8723BU. However, this commit is
only for single antenna scenario which RTL8192EU is default dual
antenna. The rtl8xxxu_parse_rxdesc24 which invokes the handle_c2h
is only for 8723b and 8192e so the mechanism is expected to work
on both chips with single antenna. Note RTL8192EU dual antenna is
not supported.

Notes:
v2:
- Add helper functions to replace bunch of tdma settings
- Reformat some lines to meet kernel coding style

In general I think it looks good! One nit below:
Sorry I have been traveling for the last three weeks, so just catching up.
+void rtl8723bu_set_coex_with_type(struct rtl8xxxu_priv *priv, u8 type)
+{
+ switch (type) {
+ case 0:
+ rtl8xxxu_write32(priv, REG_BT_COEX_TABLE1, 0x55555555);
+ rtl8xxxu_write32(priv, REG_BT_COEX_TABLE2, 0x55555555);
+ rtl8xxxu_write32(priv, REG_BT_COEX_TABLE3, 0x00ffffff);
+ rtl8xxxu_write8(priv, REG_BT_COEX_TABLE4, 0x03);
+ break;
+ case 1:
+ case 3:
The one item here, I would prefer introducing some defined types to
avoid the hard coded type numbers. It's much easier to read and debug
when named.
If you shortened the name of the function to rtl8723bu_set_coex() you
won't have problems with line lengths at the calling point.
Cheers,
