The design of INT indicator register (R_AX_PCIE_HIMR00_V1) is to reduce IO
during frequent interrupts, because it can stop chip sending interrupt to
host if we just set this indicator to 0, not all IMR(s). This indicator
register looks like a root interrupt controller of wifi chip.
However, we can't set all other IMR(s) to 0 during we are running on
interrupt service routine, or the indicator register can't reflect the
status of certain interrupt happened during this period, and then miss
some interrupts especially SER interrupt events.

This initial vesion is usable now. It can support STA, AP and monitor
modes, so we can add 8852ce to Kconfig and Makefile.
We are still working on some features, such as deep power save, and BT
coexistence. But, this version still can have a good WiFi-only performance
already, and will continue to fine tune power consumption.

DPK is short for digital pre-distortion calibration. It can adjusts digital
waveform according to PA linear characteristics dynamically to enhance
TX EVM.
Do this calibration when we are going to run on AP channel. To prevent
power offset out of boundary, it monitors thermal and set proper boundary
to register.
8852c needs two backup buffers, so we enlarge the array. But, 8852a still
needs only one, so it only uses first element (index zero).

IQ signal calibration is a very important calibration to yield good RF
performance. We do this calibration only if we are going to run on AP
channel. During scanning phase, without this calibration RF performance
is still acceptable because it transmits with low data rate at this phase.

TSSI is transmitter signal strength indication, which is a close-loop
hardware circuit to feedback actual transmitting power as a reference for
next transmission.
When we setup channel to connect an AP, it does full calibration. When
switching bands or channels, it needs to reset hardware status to prevent
use wrong feedback of previous transmission.
To do TX power compensation reflecting current temperature, it loads tables
of compensation values into registers according to channel and band group.

Three chip_ops are implemented in this patch. The ::set_txpwr_ctrl and
::init_txpwr_unit are called when we up interface and then configure TX
power registers to initial values. The ::set_txpwr_ctrl is to configure
'txpwr_ref' to make basic output TX power of OFDM and CCK rate to be the
same. The ::init_txpwr_unit is to initialize TSSI (a method to do TX power
compensation depends on thermal value) control and bandedge.
The ::set_txpwr is called once switching channel. First, it sets TX power
for each rate section (e.g. CCK, OFDM), and then sets TX power offset
between 1SS and 2SS rate. Finally, it sets TX power limit to prevent
power over regulation.

When disconnecting, it warns somethings after power is off, and we can't
do HCI IO. So, add this patch to avoid below messages:
rtw89_8852ce 0000:03:00.0: timed out to flush pci txch: 11
rtw89_8852ce 0000:03:00.0: failed to pre-release fwcmd

In low power mode, we need to pause PCI to configure IMR and PCI ring
index registers accordingly, because the regular registers are power-off
in this mode.
In the transition moment named paused in code, we can't touch ring index,
so don't kick off DMA immediately. Instead, queue them into pending queue,
and kick off after the moment.
There are three low power modes, which are RF off/clock gate/power gate,
but PCI enter low power mode in later two modes only. So, add a mask
to achieve this.

In lower power mode, there are very low amount of RX, and it must process
in a separated function instead of schedule_napi(), because the existing
napi_poll does many things to optimize performance, but not all registers
can access in low power mode. The simple way is to use threadfn to process
the simple thing.

To reclaim TX BD, we need to read hardware reading index to determine if
any DMA is complete. Since this IO spends time, do this thing only if we
really need it when TX BD has no free buffer corresponding to target skb.
The experimental result shows that reading counter decreases from 26,000
to 130 per second.

BB does many settings during setting channel. First is to configure CCK
for 2G channels, and then basic channel and bandwidth settings with a
encoded channel index that will report to driver when we receive packets.
Configure spur elimination to avoid spur of CSI and NBI tones in certain
frequencies. Also, it initializes BT grant to arrange path sharing with
BT according to band. Finally, reset TSSI and BB hardware to ensure it
stays in initial state.
