This patch fixes an invalid TX PA DC bias level on QCA9561, which
results in a very low output power and very low throughput as devices
are further away from the AP (compared to other 2.4GHz APs).
This patch was suggested by Felix Fietkau, who noted[1]:
"The value written to that register is wrong, because while the mask
definition AR_CH0_TOP2_XPABIASLVL uses a different value for 9561, the
shift definition AR_CH0_TOP2_XPABIASLVL_S is hardcoded to 12, which is
wrong for 9561."
In real life testing, without this patch the 2.4GHz throughput on
Yuncore XD3200 is around 10Mbps sitting next to the AP, and closer to
practical maximum with the patch applied.

The "rxstatus->rs_keyix" eventually gets passed to test_bit() so we need to
ensure that it is within the bitmap.

Add ath11k_mac_op_set_bios_sar_specs() to ath11k_ops, this function is called
when user space application calls NL80211_CMD_SET_SAR_SPECS. ath11k also
registers SAR type and frequency ranges to wiphy so user space can query SAR
capabilities.
This feature is currently enabled for WCN6855.

When the WMI service bits are reported from firmware they are divided into
multiple segments, with 128 bits in each segment. The first segment is
processed by ath11k_wmi_service_bitmap_copy(), the second segment is processed
by ath11k_service_available_event() with WMI_TAG_SERVICE_AVAILABLE_EVENT. When
the service bit exceed 256 bits, then firmware reports it by tag
WMI_TAG_ARRAY_UINT32 in WMI_SERVICE_AVAILABLE_EVENTID.
Currently ath11k does not process the third segment. Upcoming features
need to know if firmware support is available for the features, so add
processing of the third segment.

To support stations in power saving mode, AP should notify stations
that there are frames buffered at the AP via TIM during beacons.
Driver used to transmit identical beacons that were downloaded to
hardware during the initiation phase. This beacon will become
obsolete over time.
If the beacon does not contain sufficient information, station would
not be able to percept that there is data to receive. Hence it won't
wake up and start the PS-poll procedure, this could lead to timeout
and/or lost data segments. In order to resolve this issue, driver will
now download beacon to hardware whenever the content is updated.
Enable hardware to update dtim_count for more efficiency, this reduces
the overhead of downloading beacon at every beacon interval since most
of the time only the dtim_count needs to be updated.
Change queue mapping for broadcast/multicast frames to high queue, so
these frames can be prioritized and sent when dtim_count is zero.
