The firmware parameter LINK_FAIL_TX_CNT maps to the prima configuration
file parameter gLinkFailTxCnt and is described as:
quote: " If within gLinkFailTimeout period(values is mentioned in msec) if
FW doesn't receive acks for gLinkFailTxCnt number of packets, then
link will be disconnected."
The downstream description sets a minimum value of 1000 a maximum value of
60000 and a default value of 6000, however it appears that unless we
actually set this value deliberately firmware defaults it to 0.
Setting this value to non-zero results in the firmware doing link
monitoring.
In conjunction with ieee80211_hw_set(wcn->hw, CONNECTION_MONITOR); this
change effects offload of link monitoring to the firmware.
