Most likely the last patchset of new feature for 5.2, and this time we
have quite a lot of new features. Most obvious being rtw88 from
Realtek which supports RTL8822BE and RTL8822CE 802.11ac devices. We
have also new hardware support for existing drivers and improvements.
There's one conflict in iwlwifi, my example conflict resolution below.
Major changes:
iwlwifi
* bump the 20000-series FW API version
* work on new hardware continues
* RTT confidence indication support for Fine Timing Measurement (FTM)
* an improvement in HE (802.11ax) rate-scaling
* add command version parsing from the fimware TLVs
* add support for a new WoWLAN patterns firmware API

* fix debugfs interface to support multiple cards
rtw88
* new driver
mt76

* tx/rx performance optimizations
* use NAPI for tx cleanup on mt76x02

In ini debug TLVs bit 24 is set. The driver relies on it in the memory
allocation for the debug configuration. This implementation is
problematic in case of a new debug TLV that is not supported yet is added
and uses bit 24. In such a scenario the driver allocate space without
using it which causes errors in the apply point enabling flow.
Solve it by explicitly checking if a given TLV is part of the list of
the supported ini debug TLVs.

There are several flows in that can cause redundant allocation.
In case the driver reaches the maximum amount of blocks allowed, it
allocates the buffer and only then checks if it reached the maximum
amount of blocks and return without freeing the buffer,
causing a memory leak.
Solve this by moving the check of the amount of buffers being used
before the allocation.
In case there was an assert, the apply points are being reused,
causing that for each assert, the driver allocates a new redundant
buffer.
Solve this by adding a new is_alloc field to indicate if the driver
already allocated memory for the requested buffer.
Also, split iwl_fw_dbg_buffer_allocation function into
iwl_fw_dbg_buffer_allocation and iwl_fw_dbg_buffer_apply
to increase the clearity of the flow.

Add a function to be called when apply point occurs.
For each of the TLVs, the function will perform the
apply point logic:
- For HCMD - send the stored host command
- For buffer allocation - allocate the memory and send the
buffer allocation command
- For trigger and region - update the stored configuration

The new debug ini TLVs can be either packed into firmware
binary or written in external file. Support loading them
from both. Store the data per apply point. Apply point is
a point during driver runtime, where the TLV becomes active.
For example, a trigger of hardware error may be configured
to collect a subset of data pre-alive, as a opposed to HW
error that occurs after alive.
