This flag is annoying because it puts a lot of logic into mac80211
that could just as well be in the driver (only iwlmvm uses it) and
the implementation is also broken for MLO.
Remove the flag in favour of calling drv_mgd_prepare_tx() without
any conditions even for the deauth-while-assoc case. The drivers
that implement it can take the appropriate actions, which for the
only user of DEAUTH_NEED_MGD_TX_PREP (iwlmvm) is a bit more tricky
than the implementation in mac80211 is anyway, and all others have
no need and can just exit if info->was_assoc is set.

Public action extended channel switch announcement (ECSA)
frames cannot be protected well, the spec is unclear about
what should happen in the presence of stations that can
receive protected dual and stations that cannot.
Mitigate these issues by not treating public action frames
as the absolute truth, only treat them as a hint to stop
transmitting (quiet mode), and do the remainder of the CSA
handling only when receiving the next beacon (or protected
action frame) that contains the CSA; or, if it doesn't,
simply stop being quiet and continue operating normally.
This limits the exposure to malicious ECSA public action
frames, since they cannot cause a disconnect now, only a
short interruption in traffic.

If we see a channel switch announcement on one link for
another, handle that case and start the CSA. The driver
can react to this in whatever way it needs. The stack
will have the ability to track it via the RNR/MLE in the
reporting link's beacon if it sees it for inactive links
and adjust everything accordingly.
Note that currently the timings for the CSA aren't set,
the values are only used by the Intel drivers, and they
don't need this for newer devices that support MLO, so
I've left it out for now.

Instead of passing the full TPE elements, in all their glory
and mixed up data formats for HE backward compatibility, parse
them fully into the right values, and pass that to the drivers.
Also introduce proper validation already in mac80211, so that
drivers don't need to do it, and parse the EHT portions.
The code now passes the values in the right order according to
the channel used by an interface, which could also be a subset
of the data advertised by the AP, if we couldn't connect with
the full bandwidth (for whatever reason.)
Also add kunit tests for the more complicated bits of it.

There's an issue in that when we disconnect from an AP
due to the AP switching to an unsupported channel, we
might not tell the driver about this before we try to
send the deauth. If the underlying implementation has
detected the quiet CSA, this may cause issues if this
is the only active link. Avoid this by transmitting
(and flushing) the deauth only when there's an active
link available that's not affected by quiet CSA.
Since this introduces link->u.mgd.csa_blocked_tx and we
no longer check sdata->csa_blocked_tx for the TX itself
also rename the latter to csa_blocked_queues.

If the AP removal timer is long, we don't really want to
remove the link immediately. However, we really should do
it _before_ the AP removes it (which happens at or after
count reaches 0), so subtract 1 from the countdown when
scheduling the timer. This causes the link removal work
to run just after the beacon with value 1 is received. If
the counter is already zero, do it immediately.
This fixes an issue where we do the removal too late and
receive a beacon from the AP that's no longer associated
with the MLD, but thus removed EHT and ML elements, and
then we disconnect instead from the whole MLD, since one
of the associated APs changed mode from EHT to HE.

If the AP mode ends up being determined less than the client mode,
there may be different reasons for this, e.g. AP misconfiguration.
If this happens in a way that causes e.g. EHT to be rejected, the
elements need to be re-parsed since we'll connect as HE, but not
reparsing means that we'll still think it's OK to use multi-link,
so we can connect in a non-sensical configuration of advertising
only HE on a secondary link. This normally won't happen for the
assoc link because that reuses the mode from authentication, and
if that's not EHT, multi-link association is rejected.
Fix this inconsistency by parsing the elements again if the mode
was different from the first parsing attempt. Print the message a
bit later to avoid printing "determined AP ... to be HE" twice in
cases where ieee80211_determine_ap_chan() returned a lesser mode,
rather than the regulatory downgrades below changing it.

wireless-next patches for v6.10
The first "new features" pull request for v6.10 with changes both in
stack and in drivers. The big thing in this pull request is that
wireless subsystem is now almost free of sparse warnings. There's only
one warning left in ath11k which was introduced in v6.9-rc1 and will
be fixed via the wireless tree.
Realtek drivers continue to improve, now we have support for RTL8922AE
and RTL8723CS devices. ath11k also has long waited support for P2P.
This time we have a small conflict in iwlwifi, Stephen has an example
merge resolution which should help with fixing the conflict:

When doing CSA in multi-link, there really isn't a need to
stop transmissions entirely. Add a feature flag for drivers
to indicate they can handle quiet in CSA (be it by parsing
themselves, or by implementing drv_pre_channel_switch()),
to make that possible.
Also clean up the csa_block_tx handling: it clearly cannot
handle multi-link due to the way queues are stopped, move
it to the sdata. Drivers should be doing it themselves for
working properly during CSA in MLO anyway. Also rename it
to indicate that it reflects TX was blocked at mac80211.

In the association request, we make some parameters depend on the
AP's HT/VHT information. This was broken by my code because it no
longer filled that information, making it all zero.
For HT that meant we wouldn't reduce our capabilities to 20 MHz if
needed, and for VHT we lost beamforming capabilities.
Fix this. It seems like it may even have been broken for all but
the assoc link before.

Whenever sta_flush() function is invoked, all STAs present in that
interface are flushed. In case of MLO, it is desirable to only flush such
STAs that are at least using a given link id as one of their links.
Add support for this by making change in the __sta_info_flush API argument
to accept a link ID. And then, only if the STA is using the given link as
one of its links, it would be flushed.
