mac.c:6204:2: warning: Attempt to free released memory
kfree(ar->mac.sbands[NL80211_BAND_2GHZ].channels);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The channels pointer is allocated in ath11k_mac_setup_channels_rates()
When it fails midway, it cleans up the memory it has already allocated.
So the error handling needs to skip freeing the memory.
There is a second problem.
ath11k_mac_setup_channels_rates(), allocates 3 channels. err_free
misses releasing ar->mac.sbands[NL80211_BAND_6GHZ].channels

In order for the firmware to process extended V1 parameters with the
addtional VHT fields added we need to first enable the feature bit DOT11AC.
Once done the version number in the HAL message header will be acted upon
by the firmware.
Extended V1 parameters are a prerequisite for 802.11ac speeds since we
cannot communicate VHT parameters to the firmware absent the extended data
structures.

If we have a per CE (Copy Engine) IRQ then we have no summary
register. Right now the code generates a summary register by
iterating over all copy engines and seeing if they have an interrupt
pending.
This has a problem. Specifically if _none_ if the Copy Engines have
an interrupt pending then they might go into low power mode and
reading from their address space will cause a full system crash. This
was seen to happen when two interrupts went off at nearly the same
time. Both were handled by a single call of ath10k_snoc_napi_poll()
but, because there were two interrupts handled and thus two calls to
napi_schedule() there was still a second call to
ath10k_snoc_napi_poll() which ran with no interrupts pending.
Instead of iterating over all the copy engines, let's just keep track
of the IRQs that fire. Then we can effectively generate our own
summary without ever needing to read the Copy Engines.

Currently the NAPI processing loops through all
the copy engines and processes a particular copy
engine is the copy completion is set for that copy
engine. The host driver is not supposed to access
any copy engine register after clearing the interrupt
status register.
This might result in kernel crash like the one below

To avoid such a scenario, we generate an interrupt
summary by reading the copy completion for all the
copy engine before actually processing any of them.
This will avoid reading the interrupt status register
for any CE after the interrupt status is cleared.

For whatever reason, when connected to an open/no-security BSS,
the wcn36xx controller in bmps mode does not forward 'wake-up'
beacons despite AP sends DTIM with station AID.
Meaning that AP is not able to wakeup the station and needs to wait
for the station to wakeup by its own (TX data, keep alive pkt...),
causing serious latency issues and unexpected deauth.
When connected to AP with encryption enabled, this issue does not occur.
So a simple workaround is to only enable bmps support in that case.
Ideally, it should be propertly fixed to allow bmps support with open
BSS, whatever the issue is at driver or firmware level.
Tested on wcn3620 and wcn3680.

By default, after associated to an AP, the wcn36xx bitrate adjustment
algorithm starts sending data at 1Mbps, and increases the rate slowly
(1Mbps, 2Mbps, 6Mbps...) over the further TX packets.
Starting at 1Mbps usually causes the initial throughput to be really
low and the maximum possible bitrate to be reached after about hundreed
of TX packets.
That can be improved by setting a different initial bitrate for data
packets via the ENABLE_DYNAMIC_RA_START_RATE configuration value, this
value can be a legacy or MCS rate.
This patch sets the starting bitrate value to MCS-5, which seems to be
a good compromise given it can be quickly adjusted low or up if necessary.
(and based on what I observed in the wild with some mobile devices)
