The MLME code doesn't currently handle adding vendor elements
correctly with multi-link due to element inheritance. Simply
prevent that for now completely, if someone needs it we can
fix this later.

Chanctx emulation didn't info IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_CHANNEL to drivers
during ieee80211_restart_hw (ieee80211_emulate_add_chanctx). It caused
non-chanctx drivers to not stand on the correct channel after recovery.
RX then behaved abnormally. Finally, disconnection/reconnection occurred.
So, set IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_CHANNEL when in_reconfig.

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.

The code itself doesn't want to handle frames from the driver
if it's already stopped, but if the tasklet was queued before
and runs after the stop, then all bets are off. Flush queues
before actually stopping, RX should be off at this point since
all the interfaces are removed already, etc.

Some drivers may (notably mt76 does) not set up sband->band
before registering, and cfg80211 will fill it in later. But
since the HT/HE capability check mac80211 required it to be
initialized already, otherwise failing things. This really
isn't necessary though since the code is iterating the list
of bands, and has the 'band' variable available. Fix it to
not require the sband->band to be initialized already.

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.

An MLD may send TID-to-Link mapping request frame to negotiate
TID to link mapping with a peer MLD.
Support handling negotiated TID-to-Link mapping request frame
by parsing the frame, asking the driver whether it supports the
received mapping or not, and sending a TID-to-Link mapping response
to the AP MLD.
Theoretically, links that became inactive due to the received TID-to-Link
mapping request, can be selected to be activated but this would require
tearing down the negotiated TID-to-Link mapping, which is still not
supported.

make htmldocs warns:
Documentation/driver-api/80211/mac80211:109: ./include/net/mac80211.h:5170: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined at mac80211:1117.
Declaration is '.. c:function:: void ieee80211_tx_status (struct ieee80211_hw *hw, struct sk_buff *skb)'.
This is because there's a function named ieee80211_tx_status() and a struct named
ieee80211_tx_status. This has been discussed previously but no solution found:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220521114629.6ee9fc06@coco.lan/
There's also a bug open for three years with no solution in sight:
https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/pull/8313
So I guess we have no other solution than to a workaround this in the code,
for example to rename the function to ieee80211_tx_status_skb() to avoid the
name conflict. I got the idea for the name from ieee80211_tx_status_noskb() in
which the skb is not provided as an argument, instead with
ieee80211_tx_status_skb() the skb is provided.
Compile tested only.

ieee80211_handle_wake_tx_queue must not run concurrent multiple times.
It calls ieee80211_txq_schedule_start() and the drivers migrated to iTXQ
do not expect overlapping drv_tx() calls.
This fixes 'c850e31f79f0 ("wifi: mac80211: add internal handler for

Drivers started to use it with 'a790cc3a4fad ("wifi: mac80211: add
wake_tx_queue callback to drivers")'.
But only after fixing an independent bug with
'4444bc2116ae ("wifi: mac80211: Proper mark iTXQs for resumption")'
problematic concurrent calls really happened and exposed the initial
issue.

ieee80211_register_hw free the allocated cipher suites when
registering wiphy fail, and ieee80211_free_hw will re-free it.
set wiphy_ciphers_allocated to false after freeing allocated
cipher suites.

All drivers are now using mac80211 internal queues (iTXQs).
Drop mac80211 internal support for the old push path.

This won't work right at least with the code as it is, so
at least for now just assume it's never set for MLO. It may
very well never change, almost no drivers support it.

If any driver relies entirely on the scan request BSSID,
then that would be wrong for internal scans. Initialize
it to the broadcast address since we don't otherwise use
the field.

Adds support in mac80211 for NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_POWERED_ADDR_CHANGE.
The motivation behind this functionality is to fix limitations of
address randomization on frequencies which are disallowed in world
roaming.
The way things work now, if a client wants to randomize their address
per-connection it must power down the device, change the MAC, and
power back up. Here lies a problem since powering down the device
may result in frequencies being disabled (until the regdom is set).
If the desired BSS is on one such frequency the client is unable to
connect once the phy is powered again.
For mac80211 based devices changing the MAC while powered is possible
but currently disallowed (-EBUSY). This patch adds some logic to
allow a MAC change while powered by removing the interface, changing
the MAC, and adding it again. mac80211 will advertise support for
this feature so userspace can determine the best course of action e.g.
disallow address randomization on certain frequencies if not
supported.
There are certain limitations put on this which simplify the logic:
- No active connection
- No offchannel work, including scanning.

For now, prohibit DEAUTH_NEED_MGD_TX_PREP since we can't
really transmit this on a specific link yet as we don't
know which links are active.

Since struct ieee80211_bss_conf already contains link_id,
passing link_id is not necessary.

In MLO, expect the driver fully handles powersave handling,
including tracking whether or not a beacon was received,
the DTIM period, etc.

This really shouldn't be in a per-link config, we don't want
to let anyone control it that way (if anything, link powersave
could be forced through APIs to activate/deactivate a link),
and we don't support powersave in software with devices that
can do MLO.
