Return the amount of optional padding bits, which is 6*8 for
MCS-3 and MCS-6 and 0 for all other coding schemes. The padding
is needed the encode 68 byte data blocks (MCS-8) with these schemes.
See TS 44.060, 9.3.2.1 and Annex J for details.

This adds the following VTY command (config-pcu node):

Currently the state on the TBF is set to ASSIGN when it is created
and in general changed to FLOW when it is acknowledged by the MS. The
moment when the assignment is really transmitted to the MS (which can
take some time) is not reflected by the state. A TBF can considered
to be valid, when the assignment is received by the MS.
Add the state WAIT_ASSIGN that is entered when the assigment has been
send to the MS (more precisely: when the corresponding RTS has been
processed or the message has been sent to the BTS).
The TBF, its PDCH(s), and its TFI can be assumed to be valid, when the
TBF has a state of WAIT_ASSIGN or higher (assuming that the TBF
starting time has not been set, which is currently only done for SBA,
which are not associated with a TBF).
Note that due to queuing in the BTS there can still be a invalid
time period for immediate assignments, when the request is lingering
in the AGCH or PCH queues.

The PACCH is specific to an MS and may change when a TBF is
established or removed (see TS 44.060, 8.1.1.2.2). For multislot
class type 2 phones, more than one timeslot may be used to transmit
RLC/MAC control messages.
Add a method that returns a set of TS which can be used for the
PACCH.

Currently the selection of a pending control message is done round
robin. It can possibly happen, that a DL assigment is sent on a DL
TBF while an UL assignment is pending. The MS will replace the old
DL TBF in that case, so that it can no longer be used for the PACCH
so that the UL assignment is lost.
Give assigment requests for the same direction a lower priority.

Currently the TBF whose PACCH has been used to send an assigment
is freed if it is in state WAIT_RELEASE. Sometimes this TBF could
be used for several assignments (e.g. an 'old' DL TBF is used to
assign an UL and then a DL TBF). The second of these assigments will
never be sent in that case. On the other hand, the MS replaces a
TBF of the same direction, so the old one can be freed in that case.
Only free the TBF if it is in state WAIT_RELEASE and has the same
direction like the new one.

Tell the MS to use EGPRS if EGPRS is enabled on the TBF.
Note that only downlink TBF will be supported so far. Thus
single-phase uplink assignments may not work properly.

The EGPRS support will need more information to encode the IMMEDIATE
ASSIGMENT. Instead of adding more parameters pass a pointer to the
TBF unless an SBA shall be done (indicated by tbf == NULL). All
values that can be derived from the TBF and are not needed for an SBA
are removed from the parameter list.
Return a negative value on error.

Currently the CCCH flag is cleared and the PACCH flag is set when a
multislot upgrade is scheduled for a downlink TBF, even if the MS has
never confirmed in any way that the PACCH really exists. This can
happen if the MS did not receive the DL IMM.ASS. Since the CCCH flags
gets cleared in that case, the IMM.ASSS is never retried and all
subsequent PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENTS will fail.
This commit delays the update of these flags until the MS has
responded with a corresponding CONTROL ACK.

Currently the old TFI is always used as ID when a
PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENT is generated. This fails
if the old TBF has not been fully assigned yet. The
MS will then ignore the PDA.
This commit changes write_packet_downlink_assignment to accept
an additional parameter old_tfi_is_valid and uses the new TBF's
TLLI instead of the olf TFI if that parameter is set to false.

Currently the checks for and the actual polling is done in several
places by copy & paste of several lines of code. This hinders changes
of they polling is handled internally and also is likely source of
programming mistakes.
Separate this into a check_polling function, that checks whether
polling is possible and returns the FN and the RRBP to be used in
that case. Otherwise the cause is logged (LOGL_DEBUG) and a negative
error value is returned. There are no other side effect beside the
logging.
If the call is successful, the set_polling method can be used to
actually register the polling.
Extend the encoder functions' parameters lists by an rrbp parameter.

Currently tbf->control_ts is used to look up an incoming poll
response. Since that may eventually change, poll timeouts could
theoretically happen in that case.
Store the real poll TS in tbf->poll_ts at all places where
tbf->poll_fn is set. Do not use tbf->control_ts to look up
outstanding polls.

Currently the checks in that function are based on the different
internal TS values of a TBF. It is assumed that they match the TS
that the current RTS refers to.
This commit adds a TS parameter to create_ul_ass, create_dl_ass,
and create_ul_ack to make this more explicit.

Currently existing TBF can be reused after an MS has sent a RACH
request. Since the MS can be or most probably is in packet idle mode
in that case, the TBF are no longer usable even if they share the
PDCHs and the control TS with the new one.
There are occasional freezes where the MS does no longer react to
messages sent on the PACCH.
This change aborts all pending TBFs if a new TBF is or has been
established via RACH.

Currently the is a release() function which takes care of

According to spec, the lowest numbered PDCH of the TBF shall be used
for the PACCH, only when concurrent TBF are active, the lowest common
PDCH shall be used. An immediate assigment is in general only sent,
if no TBF is active, so the latter case never applies.

In case there is no MS object present that matches a DL UNITDATA,
the EGPRS class is currently assumed to be 0, since the Radio
Access Capabilities IE is not fully decoded if present.
This commit uses the CSN.1 decoder to parse the IE and uses the
same functions like the uplink related code does to get the GPRS
and EGPRS multislot classes.

Currently the plain 'egprs' command enables EGPRS but doesn't prevent
phones from being served in GPRS mode if they do not support EGPRS.
This involves complex frame allocation implementations in dynamic
mode, especially if 8PSK is being used. This is due to the inability
of non-EGPRS phone to decode 8PSK USF and ES/P altogether. Since
polling has a higher priority than USF, collisions will have to be
prevented by the PCU by never using an GPRS USF if it refers to a FN
that is already being used for polling.
This commit just disables mixed usage by ignoring GPRS-only request
if EGPRS is enabled.
