For channel contexts, mac80211 currently uses the cfg80211
chandef struct (control channel, center freq(s), width) to
define towards drivers and internally how these behave. In
fact, there are _two_ such structs used, where the min_def
can reduce bandwidth according to the stations connected.
Unfortunately, with EHT this is longer be sufficient, at
least not for all hardware. EHT requires that non-AP STAs
that are connected to an AP with a lower bandwidth than it
(the AP) advertises (e.g. 160 MHz STA connected to 320 MHz
AP) still be able to receive downlink OFDMA and respond to
trigger frames for uplink OFDMA that specify the position
and bandwidth for the non-AP STA relative to the channel
the AP is using. Therefore, they need to be aware of this,
and at least for some hardware (e.g. Intel) this awareness
is in the hardware. As a result, use of the "same" channel
may need to be split over two channel contexts where they
differ by the AP being used.
As a first step, introduce a concept of a channel request
('chanreq') for each interface, to control the context it
requests. This step does nothing but reorganise the code,
so that later the AP's chandef can be added to the request
in order to handle the EHT case described above.

There are still surprisingly many non-chanctx drivers, but in
mac80211 that code is a bit awkward. Simplify this by having
those drivers assign 'emulated' ops, so that the mac80211 code
can be more unified between non-chanctx/chanctx drivers. This
cuts the number of places caring about it by about 15, which
are scattered across - now they're fewer and no longer in the
channel context handling.

mac80211 is fully switching over to the internal TX queue (iTXQ)
implementation. Update all drivers not yet providing the now mandatory
wake_tx_queue() callback.
As an side effect the netdev interfaces of all updated drivers will
switch to the noqueue qdisc.

Split the bss_info_changed method to vif_cfg_changed and
link_info_changed, with the latter getting a link ID.
Also change the 'changed' parameter to u64 already, we

We'll use bss_conf for per-link configuration later, so
move out all the non-link-specific data out into a new
struct ieee80211_vif_cfg used in the vif.
Some adjustments were done with the following spatch:
@@
expression sdata;
struct ieee80211_vif *vifp;
identifier var = { assoc, ibss_joined, aid, arp_addr_list, arp_addr_cnt, ssid, ssid_len, s1g, ibss_creator };

(though more manual fixups were needed, e.g. replacing

multiple structures contains a ieee80211_rts structure, which is required to
have at least two byte alignment, but are annotated with a __packed attribute
to force single-byte alignment:
staging/vt6656/rxtx.h:98:1: warning: alignment 1 of 'struct vnt_rts_g' is less than 2 [-Wpacked-not-aligned]
staging/vt6656/rxtx.h:106:1: warning: alignment 1 of 'struct vnt_rts_ab' is less than 2 [-Wpacked-not-aligned]
staging/vt6656/rxtx.h:116:1: warning: alignment 1 of 'struct vnt_cts' is less than 2 [-Wpacked-not-aligned]
I see no reason why the structure itself would be misaligned, and all members
have at least two-byte alignment within the structure, so use the same
constraint on the sturcture itself.

Move the USB element out of vnt_tx_packet and vnt_beacon_xmit to
vnt_tx_context with sk_buff passed in parameters with the data now
between skb->data and skb->len.
The vnt_tx_usb header is moved from vnt_tx_buffer to usbpipe.h with the
size added to extra_tx_headroom the largest possible size.
The CONTEXT enums types are aligned with usb ones and CONTEXT_MGMT_PACKET
is removed and is never be used.
The skb_push in vnt_tx_packet is now only ever used with
vnt_get_hdr_size with variables tx_bytes and tx_header_size removed.
buf_len in vnt_usb_send_context is no longer used and replaced with
urb->actual_length in vnt_tx_context_complete.

The sk_buff needs to preserved for copying to various parts
of context and passing back to mac80211
clone sk_buff in context so to continue to writing to orginal
sk_buff data area to send in vnt_tx_context.
dev_kfree_skb the context on error or dev_kfree_skb the
orignal when done. The error handling continues as before.
Only one place in function needs to change from
ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb to ieee80211_hdrlen(hdr) which
is already to pointing to correct position.

mac80211 can provide space for the driver to put a tx header on
the skb buffer instead coping the entire frame on to a local
buffer with the header.
To use this extra_tx_headroom must be set in mac80211 with the largest
possible header which is struct vnt_tx_buffer.
The driver has 8 possible combinations of tx header size which
are found in vnt_get_hdr_size replacing vnt_mac_hdr_pos.

This patch is removing definition of CFLAGS in Makefile of vt6656 and
vt6655, as those are defining macros that are not used. This will remove
undef of one macro from vt6655/device_main.c, as it is only undef and it is
not used anywhere else, so it is safe to remove it.
Macros are removed from vt665x/Makefile and vt6655/device_main.c.

In the start of the "vnt_rf_set_txpower" function the "power" variable
is set at most to VNT_RF_MAX_POWER (hex = 0x3f, dec = 63). Then, in the
switch statement there are four comparisons with the "power" variable
against AL7230_PWR_IDX_LEN (dec = 64), VT3226_PWR_IDX_LEN (dec = 64),
VT3342_PWR_IDX_LEN (dec = 64). Due to all the commented comparisons are
to check if the "power" variable is "greater than or equal" to 64, this
never happens. So, remove the logically dead code.
Also, remove all the defines that are no longer required.
