As the fw features gradually increase, it would be better that
we have a set of methods to maintain fw features instead of using
scattered bool variables.
We reconstruct the way fw recognize features, and introduce
RTW89_CHK_FW_FEATURE() / RTW89_SET_FW_FEATURE() to check / set
fw features for uses.

Declare this function allows us to use customized scanning policy, so
each scan takes less time. This is a similar implementation to hw_scan
in rtw88, except that we offload more items to firmware and extend the
maximum IE length. For backward compatibility, we fallback to sw_scan
when firmware does not support this feature.

vif_type mapping indicates hardware operating mode corresponding to vif
type. In STA mode, hardware mode should be INFRA or NO_LINK mode
dynamically according to association status. Since AP mode don't need to
change this by association status intuitively, just do the mapping in
STA mode.

BA CAM is used to ACK peer's packets, so it must be established when
IEEE80211_AMPDU_RX_START, and free it by IEEE80211_AMPDU_RX_STOP.
The hardware can support two static BA CAM entries, so I implement a bitmap
and a struct to record which entry is used and its corresponding tid. Also,
the hardware can learn and create dynamic BA CAM entries automatically if
received packets don't match static BA CAM. That means it can still work if
we don't use H2C to set static BA CAM. An exception is tid=0 should be
always allocated in static BA CAM, so an existing static BA CAM will be
replaced if it is full and peer is going to establish a BA with tid=0.
The new firmware use new format of this H2C, so I upgrade it as well.

This is found by Smatch static checker warning:
drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw89/mac80211.c:31 rtw89_ops_tx()
error: uninitialized symbol 'qsel'.
The warning is because 'qsel' isn't filled by rtw89_core_tx_write() due to
failed to write. The way to fix it is to avoid kicking off TX DMA, so add
'return' to the failure case.

With wrong rtwsta->mac_id, it can't send out ack properly when we receive
assoc response occasionally. Then, it failed to connect an AP.
The cause is that we store 'sta' and use it somewhere. To correct this,
remove the variable and use mac_id in drv_priv of 'sta' or 'vif' passed
by mac80211.

This driver named rtw89, which is the next generation of rtw88, supports
Realtek 8852AE 802.11ax 2x2 chip whose new features are OFDMA, DBCC,
Spatial reuse, TWT and BSS coloring; now some of them aren't implemented
though.
The chip architecture is entirely different from the chips supported by
rtw88 like RTL8822CE 802.11ac chip. First of all, register address ranges
are totally redefined, so it's impossible to reuse register definition. To
communicate with firmware, new H2C/C2H format is proposed. In order to have
better utilization, TX DMA flow is changed to two stages DMA. To provide
rich RX status information, additional RX PPDU packets are added.
Since there are so many differences mentioned above, we decide to propose
a new driver. It has many authors, they are listed in alphabetic order:
