In order to save power, it can be desirable to change the
RX operating mode using OMI to reduce the bandwidth. As the
handshake must be done in the HTC+ field, it cannot be done
by mac80211 directly, so expose functions to the driver to
request and finalize the necessary updates.
Note that RX OMI really only changes what the peer (AP) will
transmit to us, but in order to use it to actually save some
power (by reducing the listen bandwidth) we also update rate
scaling and then the channel context's mindef accordingly.
The updates are split into two in order to sequence them
correctly, when reducing bandwidth first reduce the rate
scaling and thus TX, then send OMI, then reduce the listen
bandwidth (chandef); when increasing bandwidth this is the
other way around. This also requires tracking in different
variables which part is applicable already.

Currently, the sequence goes like this (among others):
1. flush all stations (including the AP ones) -> this will tell the
drivers to remove the stations
2. notify the driver the vif is not associated.
Which means that in between 1 and 2, the state is that the vif is
associated, but there is no AP station, which makes no sense, and may be
problematic for some drivers (for example iwlwifi)
Change the sequence to:
1. flush the TDLS stations
2. move the AP station to IEEE80211_STA_NONE
3. notify the driver about the vif being unassociated
4. flush the AP station
In order to not break other drivers, add a vif flag to indicate whether
the driver wants to new sequence or not. If the flag is not set, then
things will be done in the old sequence.

Since adding support for opting out of virtual monitor support, a zero vif
addr was used to indicate passive vs active monitor to the driver.
This would break the vif->addr when changing the netdev mac address before
switching the interface from monitor to sta mode.
Fix the regression by adding a separate flag to indicate whether vif->addr
is valid.

If we got an unprotected action frame with CSA and then we heard the
beacon with the CSA IE, we'll block the queues with the CSA reason
twice. Since this reason is refcounted, we won't wake up the queues
since we wake them up only once and the ref count will never reach 0.
This led to blocked queues that prevented any activity (even
disconnection wouldn't reset the queue state and the only way to recover
would be to reload the kernel module.
Fix this by not refcounting the CSA reason.
It becomes now pointless to maintain the csa_blocked_queues state.
Remove it.

Drivers may need to track this. Make it available for them, and maintain
the value when beacons are received.
When link X receives a beacon, iterate the RNR elements and update all
the links with their respective data.
Track the link id that updated the data so that each link can know
whether the update came from its own beacon or from another link.
In case, the update came from the link's own beacon, always update the
updater link id.
The purpose is to let the low level driver know if a link is losing its
beacons. If link X is losing its beacons, it can still track the
bss_param_ch_cnt and know where the update came from.

Currently DFS works under assumption there could be only one channel
context in the hardware. Hence, drivers just calls the function
ieee80211_radar_detected() passing the hardware structure. However, with
MLO, this obviously will not work since number of channel contexts will be
more than one and hence drivers would need to pass the channel information
as well on which the radar is detected.
Also, when radar is detected in one of the links, other link's CAC should
not be cancelled.
Hence, in order to support DFS with MLO, do the following changes -
* Add channel context conf pointer as an argument to the function
ieee80211_radar_detected(). During MLO, drivers would have to pass on
which channel context conf radar is detected. Otherwise, drivers could
just pass NULL.
* ieee80211_radar_detected() will iterate over all channel contexts
present and
* if channel context conf is passed, only mark that as radar
detected
* if NULL is passed, then mark all channel contexts as radar
detected
* Then as usual, schedule the radar detected work.
* In the worker, go over all the contexts again and for all such context
which is marked with radar detected, cancel the ongoing CAC by calling
ieee80211_dfs_cac_cancel() and then notify cfg80211 via
cfg80211_radar_event().
* To cancel the CAC, pass the channel context as well where radar is
detected to ieee80211_dfs_cac_cancel(). This ensures that CAC is
canceled only on the links using the provided context, leaving other
links unaffected.
This would also help in scenarios where there is split phy 5 GHz radio,
which is capable of DFS channels in both lower and upper band. In this
case, simultaneous radars can be detected.

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.

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.

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.
