a083c8fd27 rt2x00: Fix incorrect usage of CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_USB
In device removal routine, usage of "#ifdef CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_USB"
will not cover the case when it is configured as module. This will
omit the entire if-block which does cleanup of URBs and cancellation
of pending work. Changing the #ifdef to #if IS_ENABLED() to fix it.

9766cb7090 rt2x00: add support for mac addr from device tree
On some devices the EEPROMs of Ralink Wi-Fi chips have a default Ralink
MAC address set (RT3062F: 00:0C:43:30:62:00, RT3060F:
00:0C:43:30:60:00). Using multiple of these devices in the same network
can cause nasty issues.

Allow to override the MAC in the EEPROM with (a known good) one set in
the device tree to bypass the issue.

8f20542386 wireless: deprecate WDS and disable by default
The old WDS 4-addr frame support is very limited, e.g.
 * no encryption is possible on such links
 * it cannot support rate/HT/VHT negotiation
 * management APIs are very restricted

These make the WDS legacy mode useless in practice.

All of these are resolved by the 4-addr AP/client support,
so there's also no reason to improve WDS in the future.

Therefore, add a Kconfig option to disable legacy WDS.
This gives people an "emergency valve" while they migrate
to the better-supported 4-addr AP/client option; we plan
to remove it (and the associated cfg80211/mac80211 code,
which is the ultimate goal) in the future.

57fbcce37b cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_band
This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and
the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of
it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of
bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one.

8b4c000931 rt2x00usb: Use usb anchor to manage URB
With current driver, it is observed that a URB is not
completed while the USB disconnect is initiated. Due to
that, the URB completion handler is trying to access
the resource which was freed as a part of USB disconnect.
Managing the URBs with anchor will make sure that all
the URBs are handled gracefully before device gets
disconnected.
