This patch adds wil6210 driver for Wilocity/QCA based 802.11ad
PCI cards.

Driver uses cfg80211 and nl80211 but not mac80211.
Integration for UCI and LuCI will come in other patches.

1a9b896d8b treewide: nuke DRIVER_11W_SUPPORT
As of hostapd upstream commit 7d2ed8ba "Remove CONFIG_IEEE80211W build parameter"
https://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/commit?id=7d2ed8bae86a31dd2df45c24b3f7281d55315482
802.11w feature is always enabled in the build time.

It doesn't make sense to opt-in 802.11w per driver as hostapd will always
be compiled with this feature enabled.

As suggested by Hauke Mehrtens, for now keep 11w enabled in build_features.h
for compatibility reasons. This option will be dropped when LuCI is adjusted.

39c8bc4422 mac80211: fix MAC address allocations when local bit set on base addr
Testing with hwsim reveals two problems:

1. phyX/addresses has two addresses and mac80211_get_addr keeps
returning the last one when asked for more;

2. The base address has the local bit set and the operation unsets it.

Fix both.

daeda8a87e mac80211: pass phy name to hostapd_set_bss_options
hostapd_set_bss_options expects the PHY as second and the VIF as third
argument. However, only the VIF was passed as second argument without a
third argument at all.

This was never a problem, as both PHY and VIF were never accessed.
However, with FTM support the PHY is needed to determine the HW support
when configuring the BSS.

e0d482fdcf rt2x00: mt7620: differentiate based on SoC's CHIP_VER
The vendor driver does things differently based on what it finds in the
SoC's CHIP_VER register, which should tell whether this is MT7620N or
MT7620A (PKG) and probably also the revision (VER) and most likely
also something about the silicon implementer (ECO).
Introduce codepaths just like the ones in the vendor driver to handle
the different chips properly.

Some of those paths are most likely dead code and left-overs from FPGA
versions or early prototypes of the chip. It'd thus be great if people
can post their kernel logs, at least the line telling the chip version
and eco, so we know what's actually out there in the wild -- all I
could find is
[ 0.000000] SoC Type: Ralink MT7620A ver:2 eco:6
and
[ 0.000000] SoC Type: Ralink MT7620N ver:2 eco:6
which would make things easier, as then we really just need to know
whether it's MT7620N or MT7620A and not care about FPGA or prototypes
with ver <= 1 and eco <= 2.
