The transmission utilization ratio for sdio bus for small packet is
slow, because the space and time cost for sdio bus is same for large
length packet and small length packet. So the speed of data for large
length packet is higher than small length.

Test result of different length of data:

data packet(byte)   cost time(us)   calculated rate(Mbps)
      256               28                73
      512               33               124
     1024               35               234
     1792               45               318
    14336              168               682
    28672              333               688
    57344              660               695

This patch change the TX packet from single packet to a large length
bundle packet, max size is 32, it results in significant performance
improvement on TX path.

This patch only effect sdio chip, it will not effect PCI, SNOC etc.
It only enable bundle for sdio chip.

Tested with QCA6174 SDIO with firmware
WLAN.RMH.4.4.1-00017-QCARMSWP-1.

We already have three threads:

ath/ath10k/core.c:      ar->workqueue = create_singlethread_workqueue("ath10k_wq");
ath/ath10k/core.c:      ar->workqueue_aux = create_singlethread_workqueue("ath10k_aux_wq");
ath/ath10k/sdio.c:      ar_sdio->workqueue = create_singlethread_workqueue("ath10k_sdio_wq");

Do we really need a fourth one? For example, why can't we use
ar->workqueue_aux?

"htc bundle skb len %d\n"

In other words, start with "htc" and don't use colons or parenthesis.
This applies to most of debug messages in this patch.

I will change the log and other log and sent v10.
but "ath10k: disable TX complete indication of htt for sdio" and
"ath10k: change ATH10K_SDIO_BUS_REQUEST_MAX_NUM from 64 to 1024" has 
appied to ath-next,
so I only need to send the left 2 patches:
"ath10k: add htt TX bundle for sdio" and "ath10k: enable alt data of TX 
path for sdio", right?

For tcp test, it has 4 thread work meanwhile:
tx_bundle_skbs(ar->workqueue),
rx_indication(ar->workqueue_aux),
sdio_async_tx_request(ar_sdio->workqueue),
tx_bundle_complete(ar->workqueue_tx_complete)

It has 4+ cpu/core in system, if reduced to 3 threads, then tcp 
throughput will drop.
only when it only has 1/2/3 cpu/core in system, then reduced to 3 
threads will not drop.

Correct, I already applied patches 1 and 2. But before you resend
patches 3-4 did you see my question about creating a new thread, is it
really necessary?

How much does it drop? Please add the justification (with numbers) for
the new thread to the commit log, so that the reason is properly
documented.

I see that you already submitted v10. If you can give the numbers I can
add them to the commit log.

I tested for VHT80 mode for 3 thread config:
result:
                                      TCP-RX    TCP-TX    UDP-RX    
UDP-TX
use workqueue_tx_complete(Mbps)        423       357       448       412
change it to ar->workqueue(Mbps)       410       360       449       414
change it to ar->workqueue_aux(Mbps)   405       339       446       401

each thread role:
tx_bundle_skbs(ar->workqueue),
rx_indication(ar->workqueue_aux),
sdio_async_tx_request(ar_sdio->workqueue),
tx_bundle_complete(ar->workqueue_tx_complete)

Thanks, I added the table to the commit log.
