Without this patch, firmware only track beacons for port 0 and since
we will always start AP on port 0, this results in misbehavior of
power saving mode on other ports after AP stops.
The "default port" H2C command is used to notify which port should
firmware track. Update the correct settings to firmware so power
saving mode can work properly.

Broadcast and multicast packets in high queue should be transmitted
all at once during DTIM. But without proper settings, hardware fails
to recognize that there are multiple packets and fetches only one.
Fix this by signaling hardware with more data bit set when there are
packets in the high queue.

In the wpa_supplicant rekey flow, it sends an EAPOL packet 4/4 through
nl80211_tx_control_port() and triggers wake_tx_queue() in the driver.
Then, it sends nl80211_new_key() to configure a new key in mac80211.
However, in wake_tx_queue(), a workqueue is used to process the tx packet,
which might cause the driver to process the EAPOL packet later than
nl80211_new_key(). As a result, the EAPOL 4/4 packet is dropped by mac80211
due to the rekey configuration being finished. The EAPOL packets belongs to
VO packets that need high priority. Therefore, we process VO packets
directly without workqueue to ensure that packets can process immediately.
VO is normally used by voice application that is low traffic load and low
latency, that doesn't affect user experience.
We test iperf with VO packets(iperf3 -P4 -u -b 10000M -S 0xdf)

For combo chips, antennas were controlled by bluetooth only during
power on. If WiFi wish to do transmission, notification to the coexistence
module are required. Previously we only do this before authentication.
To allow transmission before auth, such as management TX, now we start
the initiation of coexistence earlier so antennas are shared between
WiFi and bluetooth after set_channel(), and frames could then be sent.

There were crashes reported in this code, and the timer_shutdown()
warning in one of the previous patches indicates that the timeout
timer for the AP response (addba_resp_timer) is still armed while
we're stopping the aggregation session.
After a very long deliberation of the code, so far the only way I
could find that might cause this would be the following sequence:
- session start requested
- session start indicated to driver, but driver returns
IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_START_DELAY_ADDBA
- session stop requested, sets HT_AGG_STATE_WANT_STOP
- session stop worker runs ___ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session(),
sets HT_AGG_STATE_STOPPING
From here on, the order doesn't matter exactly, but:
1. driver calls ieee80211_start_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe(),
setting HT_AGG_STATE_START_CB
2. driver calls ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe(),
setting HT_AGG_STATE_STOP_CB
3. the worker will run ieee80211_start_tx_ba_cb() for
HT_AGG_STATE_START_CB
4. the worker will run ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb() for
HT_AGG_STATE_STOP_CB
(the order could also be 1./3./2./4.)
This will cause ieee80211_start_tx_ba_cb() to send out the AddBA
request frame to the AP and arm the timer, but we're already in
the middle of stopping and so the ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb() will
no longer assume it needs to stop anything.
Prevent this by checking for WANT_STOP/STOPPING in the start CB,
and warn if we're sending a frame on a stopping session.

STA MLD setup links may get removed if AP MLD remove the corresponding
affiliated APs with Multi-Link reconfiguration as described in
P802.11be_D3.0, section 35.3.6.2.2 Removing affiliated APs. Currently,
there is no support to notify such operation to cfg80211 and userspace.
Add support for the drivers to indicate STA MLD setup links removal to
cfg80211 and notify the same to userspace. Upon receiving such
indication from the driver, clear the MLO links information of the
removed links in the WDEV.

The basic multi-link element within an multi-link probe response will
contain full information about BSSes that are part of an MLD AP. This
BSS information may be used to associate with a link of an MLD AP
without having received a beacon from the BSS itself.
This patch adds parsing of the data and adding/updating the BSS using
the received elements. Doing this means that userspace can discover the
BSSes using an ML probe request and request association on these links.

The removed code ran for any BSS that was not included in the MBSSID
element in order to update it. However, instead of using the correct
inheritance rules, it would simply copy the elements from the
transmitting AP. The result is that we would report incorrect elements
in this case.
After some discussions, it seems that there are likely not even APs
actually using this feature. Either way, removing the code decreases
complexity and makes the cfg80211 behaviour more correct.

The cfg80211_gen_new_ie function merges the IEs using inheritance rules.
Rewrite this function to fix issues around inheritance rules. In
particular, vendor elements do not require any special handling, as they
are either all inherited or overridden by the subprofile.
Also, add fragmentation handling as this may be needed in some cases.
This also changes the function to not require making a copy. The new
version could be optimized a bit by explicitly tracking which IEs have
been handled already rather than looking that up again every time.
Note that a small behavioural change is the removal of the SSID special
handling. This should be fine for the MBSSID element, as the SSID must
be included in the subelement.

Doing this simplifies the code somewhat, as iteration over the
nontransmitted BSSs is not required anymore. Also, mac80211 should
not be iterating over the nontrans_list as it should only be accessed
while the bss_lock is held.
It also simplifies parsing of the IEs somewhat, as cfg80211 already
extracts the IEs and passes them to the callback.
Note that the only user left requiring parsing a specific BSS is the
association code if a beacon is required by the hardware.
