wil6210: Tx performance monitoring
For performance monitoring, trace time intervals when Tx vring is idle/not idle. Use CPU cycle counter for this, because jiffies is too rough, and other precise time measurement methods involve overhead while get_cycles() should be fast. This used to provide some estimation for percentage when Tx vring was idle, i.e. when hardware is under-utilized. Estimation is not precise because of many reasons - CPU frequency scaling, grt_cycles() may be per core etc. But still, it is good estimation Change-Id: I1c1f131fbe57ba5090a2a71ab63aa8a6aafd5790 Signed-off-by:Vladimir Kondratiev <qca_vkondrat@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by:
