When we disassociate we may need to send a deauth frame.
Regardless of this decision, we need to flush the queues to drop all the
packets on the Tx queues.
The flow looks like this:
1) Flush packets waiting on the queues (drop=true)
2) Prepare Tx to send the deauth
3) Build the deauth header
4) send the deauth
5) Flush the deauth packet (drop=false)
6) Complete_tx
Step 3 and 4 are done in ieee80211_send_deauth_disassoc() and that
function must be called even if we decide not to send the deauth
frame because we need step 3 for cfg80211.
This means that if we want to send the deauth frame, we need all the
steps, but if we don't want to send the deauth frame we still want step
1 and 3.
Change the code to do that.
Also, prevent sending the deauth frame if we are in the middle of a CSA
with mode=1 in which case we won't be able to send the frame anyway.
This caused issues in iwlwifi at step 5 since the firmware wouldn't
send the frame and we'd be stuck flushing with drop=false.
Implement this in ieee80211_set_disassoc() which has many callers.

Add support for configuring EPCS state:
- When EPCS is enabled, send an EPCS enable request action frame
to the AP. When the AP replies with EPCS enable response, enable
EPCS by applying the QoS parameters provided by the AP. Do so for
all the valid MLD links. Once EPCS is enabled, support processing
of unsolicited EPCS enable response frames.
- When EPCS is disabled, send an EPCS teardown request to the AP
and apply the QoS parameters as obtained from the last received
beacons. Do so for all the valid links.

-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it, globally.
So, in order to avoid ending up with a flexible-array member in the
middle of other structs, we use the `__struct_group()` helper to
create a new tagged `struct qlink_tlv_hdr_fixed`. This structure
groups together all the members of the flexible `struct qlink_tlv_hdr`
except the flexible array.
As a result, the array is effectively separated from the rest of the
members without modifying the memory layout of the flexible structure.
We then change the type of the middle struct member currently causing
trouble from `struct qlink_tlv_hdr` to `struct qlink_tlv_hdr_fixed`.
We also want to ensure that when new members need to be added to the
flexible structure, they are always included within the newly created
tagged struct. For this, we use `static_assert()`. This ensures that
the memory layout for both the flexible structure and the new tagged
struct is the same after any changes.
This approach avoids having to implement `struct qlink_tlv_hdr_fixed`
as a completely separate structure, thus preventing having to maintain
two independent but basically identical structures, closing the door
to potential bugs in the future.
So, with this changes, fix 66 of the following warnings:
drivers/net/wireless/quantenna/qtnfmac/qlink.h:1681:30: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]

Hostapd switched from cooked monitor interfaces to nl80211 Dec 2011.
Drop support for the outdated cooked monitor interfaces and fix
creating the virtual monitor interfaces in the following cases:
1) We have one non-monitor and one monitor interface with
%MONITOR_FLAG_ACTIVE enabled and then delete the non-monitor
interface.
2) We only have monitor interfaces enabled on resume while at least one
has %MONITOR_FLAG_ACTIVE set.

With the recent removal of the uncalled
lbs_(enter|exit)_auto_deep_sleep()
functions, it's no longer possible to set
priv->is_auto_deep_sleep_enabled
so we can remove all tests of it and the variable itself.
With that gone, priv->wakeup_dev_required also doesn't
get set, so we can remove any testing of it.
Now the timer itself, and the function it calls goes.
The timer used the apparently unset auto_deep_sleep_timeout
member, which can also go.

The number of SYN + MPC retransmissions before falling back to TCP was
fixed to 2. This is certainly a good default value, but having a fixed
number can be a problem in some environments.
The current behaviour means that if all packets are dropped, there will
be:
- The initial SYN + MPC
- 2 retransmissions with MPC
- The next ones will be without MPTCP.
So typically ~3 seconds before falling back to TCP. In some networks
where some temporally blackholes are unfortunately frequent, or when a
client tries to initiate connections while the network is not ready yet,
this can cause new connections not to have MPTCP connections.
In such environments, it is now possible to increase the number of SYN
retransmissions with MPTCP options to make sure MPTCP is used.
Interesting values are:
- 0: the first retransmission will be done without MPTCP options: quite
aggressive, but also a higher risk of detecting false-positive
MPTCP blackholes.
- >= 128: all SYN retransmissions will keep the MPTCP options: back to
the < 6.12 behaviour.
The default behaviour is not changed here.
