The firmware is offering features such as ARP offload, for which
firmware crafts its own (QoS)packets without waking up the host.
Point is that the sequence numbers generated by the firmware are
not in sync with the host mac80211 layer and can cause packets
such as firmware ARP reponses to be dropped by the AP (too old SN).
To fix this we need to let the firmware manages the sequence
numbers by its own (except for QoS null frames). There is a SN
counter for each QoS queue and one global/baseline counter for
Non-QoS.

This is essentially exactly following the dma_wmb()/dma_rmb() usage
instructions in Documentation/memory-barriers.txt.
The theoretical races here are:
1. DXE (the DMA Transfer Engine in the Wi-Fi subsystem) seeing the
dxe->ctrl & WCN36xx_DXE_CTRL_VLD write before the dxe->dst_addr_l
write, thus performing DMA into the wrong address.
2. CPU reading dxe->dst_addr_l before DXE unsets dxe->ctrl &
WCN36xx_DXE_CTRL_VLD. This should generally be harmless since DXE
doesn't write dxe->dst_addr_l (no risk of freeing the wrong skb).

On an open AP when you pull the plug on the AP, if we are not already in
BMPS mode then the firmware will not generate a disconnection event.
Instead we need to monitor for failure to enter BMPS and treat a string of
failures as connection loss.
Secure AP connections don't appear to demonstrate this behavior so the
work-around is limited to open APs only.

WCNSS RX DMA transfer support is limited to 3872 bytes, which is
enough for simple MPDUs (single MSDU), but not enough for cases
with A-MSDU (depending on max AMSDU size or max MPDU size).
In that case the MPDU is spread over multiple transfers, with the
first transfer containing the MPDU header and (at least) the first
A-MSDU subframe and additional transfer(s) containing the following
A-MSDUs. This can be handled with a series of flags to tagging the
first and last A-MSDU transfers.
In that case we have to bufferize and re-linearize the A-MSDU buffers
into a proper MPDU skb before forwarding to mac80211 (in the same way
as it is done in ath10k).
This change also includes sanity check of the buffer descriptor to
prevent skb overflow.

Until now, offload scanning for 5Ghz channels was considered broken.
However it was mostly a driver issue, caused by bad reporting of the
beacons/probe-resp bands and frequencies, which has been fixed.
We can now allow offload scan for 5GHz band, this reduces the scanning
time comparing to software driven scanning.
Note that offloaded scan is limited to 48 channels, check for this.

For packets originating from hardware scan, the channel and band is
included in the buffer descriptor (bd->rf_band & bd->rx_ch).
For 2Ghz band the channel value is directly reported in the 4-bit
rx_ch field. For 5Ghz band, the rx_ch field contains a mapping
index (given the 4-bit limitation).
The reserved0 value field is also used to extend 4-bit mapping to
5-bit mapping to support more than 16 5Ghz channels.
This change adds correct reporting of the frequency/band, that is
used in scan mechanism. And is required for 5Ghz hardware scan
support.

This change fix the TX ack mechanism in various ways:
- For NO_ACK tagged packets, we don't need to wait for TX_ACK indication
and so are not subject to the single packet ack limitation. So we don't
have to stop the tx queue, and can call the tx status callback as soon
as DMA transfer has completed.
- Fix skb ownership/reference. Only start status indication timeout
once the DMA transfer has been completed. This avoids the skb to be
both referenced in the DMA tx ring and by the tx_ack_skb pointer,
preventing any use-after-free or double-free.
- This adds a sanity (paranoia?) check on the skb tx ack pointer.
- Resume TX queue if TX status tagged packet TX fails.

We observe unexpected connection drops with some APs due to
non-acked mac80211 generated null data frames (keep-alive).
After debugging and capture, we noticed that null frames are
submitted at standard data bitrate and that the given APs are
in trouble with that.
After setting the null frame bitrate to control bitrate, all
null frames are acked as expected and connection is maintained.
Not sure if it's a requirement of the specification, but it seems
the right thing to do anyway, null frames are mostly used for control
purpose (power-saving, keep-alive...), and submitting them with
a slower/simpler bitrate/modulation is more robust.

Commit 9af7c32cec ("ath10k: add target IRAM recovery feature support")
introduced a new firmware feature flag ATH10K_FW_FEATURE_IRAM_RECOVERY. But
this caused ath10k_pci module load to fail if ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_RAM_DATA bit
was not enabled in the ath10k coredump_mask module parameter:

[ 2213.933910] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: could not probe fw (-12)
And by default coredump_mask does not have ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_RAM_DATA
enabled so anyone using a firmware with iram-recovery feature would fail. To my
knowledge only QCA9984 firmwares starting from release 10.4-3.9.0.2-00099
enabled the feature.
The reason for regression was that ath10k_core_copy_target_iram() used
ath10k_coredump_get_mem_layout() to get the memory layout, but when
ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_RAM_DATA was disabled it would get just NULL and bail out
with an error.
While looking at all this I noticed another bug: if CONFIG_DEV_COREDUMP is
disabled but the firmware has iram-recovery enabled the module load fails with
similar error messages. I fixed that by returning 0 from
ath10k_core_copy_target_iram() when _ath10k_coredump_get_mem_layout() returns
NULL.

Using a kernel pointer in place of a dma_addr_t token can
lead to undefined behavior if that makes it into cache
management functions. The compiler caught one such attempt
in a cast:
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/mac.c: In function 'ath10k_add_interface':
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/mac.c:5586:47: error: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Werror=pointer-to-int-cast]
5586 | arvif->beacon_paddr = (dma_addr_t)arvif->beacon_buf;
| ^
Looking through how this gets used down the way, I'm fairly
sure that beacon_paddr is never accessed again for ATH10K_DEV_TYPE_HL
devices, and if it was accessed, that would be a bug.
Change the assignment to use a known-invalid address token
instead, which avoids the warning and makes it easier to catch
bugs if it does end up getting used.

When the EEPROM data is stored on a MTD partition print an error message
when reading this MTD partition failed. This is currently happening
often in OpenWrt because the initial data was written with using a flash
driver which ignores the error detection data and now OpenWrt uses a
driver which checks it.

commit 7f4b792031 ("mt76: mt7615: add ibss support") introduced IBSS
and commit f4ec7fdf7f ("mt76: mt7615: enable support for mesh")
meshpoint support.
Both used in the "get_omac_idx"-function:
if (~mask & BIT(HW_BSSID_0))
return HW_BSSID_0;
With commit d8d59f66d1 ("mt76: mt7615: support 16 interfaces") the
ibss and meshpoint mode should "prefer hw bssid slot 1-3". However,
with that change the ibss or meshpoint mode will not send any beacon on
the mt7622 wifi anymore. Devices were still able to exchange data but
only if a bssid already existed. Two mt7622 devices will never be able
to communicate.
This commits reverts the preferation of slot 1-3 for ibss and
meshpoint. Only NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION will still prefer slot 1-3.
Tested on Banana Pi R64.

Sometimes some NICs may fail to initialize, but if we have
such a scenario we may only see an alive timeout (i.e. the
firmware doesn't send us the alive message), and that will
only cause us to fail the interface up.
Try to once grab NIC access during device probe to ensure
we can properly talk to the hardware at all, and to do all
the potential workarounds in that function.
Since we now finish NIC init here, we can remove it from
the later potential read of the RF ID.
