b78db9daa4 mac80211: fix QCA9561 PA bias
This patch fixes an invalid TX PA DC bias level on QCA9561, which
results in a very low output power and very low throughput as devices
are further away from the AP (compared to other 2.4GHz APs),
following a suggestion from nbd[1].

This patch has been submitted upstream[2].

d91318662d ath9k: nvmem for ath9k caldata
With "getting WIFI MAC from NVMEM" working on ath79 on 5.10,
the next logical step I think is to utilize nvmem subsystem
to also get the calibration data from there.

This will tremendously speed up the wifi bring-up, since
we no longer need the userspace helper for the simple
devices that can just load them from there.

included with this patch is a package/mac80211/refresh.

Tested on: WNDR3700v2, TP-Link Archer C7v2

4c8dd973ef ath9k: OF: qca,disable-(2|5)ghz => ieee80211-freq-limit
OpenWrt maintains two special out-of-tree DT properties:
"qca,disable-5ghz" and "qca,disable-2ghz". These are implemented
in a mac80211 ath9k patch "550-ath9k-disable-bands-via-dt.patch".

With the things being what they are, now might be a good
point to switch the devices to the generic and upstream
"ieee80211-freq-limit" property. This property is much
broader and works differently. Instead of disabling the
drivers logic which would add the affected band and
channels. It now disables all channels which are not
within the specified frequency range.

This backports version 5.11.22 and later does not support kernel
versions < 4.4, this allows us to remove some patches too.

Use of WPA3 and things like FILS is getting much more common, and platforms
that can't affort the extra kilobytes for this code are fading away.
Let's not hold back modern authentication methods any longer

3394af677c mac80211: split ath patch in dedicated subdir
The ath patch number is already large and adding other patch for ath11k
will add more confusion with the patch numbering.
Since the support of ath11k based device is imminent, prepare the mac80211
ath patch dir and split it in the dedicated ath5k, ath9k, ath10k and ath11k
(empty for now).
