After scan aborts we still receive some hw scan c2h packets, and
processing these c2h commands will change current channel. If device
already connect to other AP, driver will set wrong op channel due
to current channel changed. The disconnection happens when hw scan back
to wrong op channel that device can't receive beacon from AP. To fix
this issue, we ignore the late c2h if we are not scanning, and set
current channel back to op channel after scan to align the FW behavior.

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.

Declare this function allows us to use customized scanning policy.
By doing so we can be more time efficient on each scan. In order to
make existing coex mechanism work as usual, firmware notifies driver
on each channel switch event, then decide antenna ownership based on
the current channel/band. Do note that this new mechanism affects
throughput more than the sw_scan we used to have, but the overall
average throughput is not affected since each scan take less time.
Since the firmware size is limited, we only support probe requests
with custom IEs length under 128 bytes for now, if any user space
tools requires more than that, we'll introduce related changes
afterwards. For backward compatibility, we fallback to sw_scan when
using older firmware that does not support this feature.

Originally driver checks if firmware has left lps via reading the setting
of REG_TCR register. But this way may fail when firmware is frequently
changing power state. Therefore, firmware provides a safer option for
driver. When firmware leaves lps successfully, it sends a C2H response
to inform driver.

This handles the situation when firmware crashes.
When firmware crashes, it will send an interrupt, and driver will queue
a work for recovery.
In the work, driver will reset it's internal association state, which
includes removing associated sta's macid, resetting vifs' states
and removing keys. After resetting the driver's state, driver will call
rtw_enter_ips() to force the chipset power off to reset the chip.
Finally, driver calls ieee80211_restart_hw() to inform mac80211 stack
to restart.
Since only 8822c firmware supports this feature, the interrupt will only
be triggered when 8822c chipset is loaded.

Each device has only one reserved page shared with all of the
vifs, so it seems not reasonable to pass vif as one of the
arguments to rtw_fw_download_rsvd_page(). If driver is going
to run more than one vif, the content of reserved page could
not be built for all of the vifs.
To fix it, let each vif maintain its own reserved page list,
and build the final reserved page to download to the firmware
from all of the vifs. Hence driver should add reserved pages
to each vif according to the vif->type when adding the vif.
For station mode, add reserved page with rtw_add_rsvd_page_sta().
If the station mode is going to suspend in PNO (net-detect)
mode, remove the reserved pages used for normal mode, and add
new one for wowlan mode with rtw_add_rsvd_page_pno().
For beacon mode, only beacon is required to be added using
rtw_add_rsvd_page_bcn().
This would make the code flow simpler as we don't need to
add reserved pages when vif is running, just add/remove them
when ieee80211_ops::[add|remove]_interface.
When driver is going to download the reserved page, it will
collect pages from all of the vifs, this list is maintained
by rtwdev, with build_list as the pages' member. That way, we
can still build a list of reserved pages to be downloaded.
Also we can get the location of the pages from the list that
is maintained by rtwdev.
The biggest problem is that the first page should always be
beacon, if other type of reserved page is put in the first
page, the tx descriptor and offset could be wrong.
But station mode vif does not add beacon into its list, so
we need to add a dummy page in front of the list, to make
sure other pages will not be put in the first page. As the
dummy page is allocated when building the list, we must free
it before building a new list of reserved pages to firmware.
