During the channel scanning process, the driver will continuously
switch channels. It seems that the full RF calibration step in
rt2800_config_channel() caused the channel scanning function to
timeout. To fix it, move the RF calibration to rt2800_enable_radio()
so that it is only executed once. This commit also includes some
coding format adjustments to follow the Linux recommended style.

Currently, during initialization ath11k will receive a regulatory event
from the firmware in which it will receive the default regulatory domain
code and accompanying rules list and report those to the kernel.
Then if you try to change the regulatory domain to a different country code
it will do a weird thing in which it will send that to the FW and after
receiving the appropriate regulatory event it will parse the rules.
However, while its parsing there is a weird thing being done, and that is
that new raw rules from FW get intersected with the rules from the default
domain.
This is creating a big issue as the default domain is almost always set to
"US" or just "00" aka world so ath11k will unfairly limit you to the most
restrictive combination of rules based on the default domain and your
desired domain.
For example, in ETSI countries this is causing channels 12 and 13 on 2.4GHz
to not be usable since "US" limits 2.4GHz to 2472MHz instead of 2482MHz
like ETSI countries do.
So, lets do what TIP and even QCA do in their ath11k downstream tree and
completely get rid of the interesection code in ath11k.

ath11k is the upstream driver for Qualcomm 802.11ax radios, both for the
internal AHB and PCI based cards.
This commit does however only provide PCI support while AHB will follow
but its SoC specific so it will require an OpenWrt target first.
It differs a bit from ath10k as it requires stuff like QRTR, MHI and QMI
helpers.
PCI variant requires qrtr-mhi and mhi-bus which backports do provide,
however we are dropping those in a patch as they will conflict with
support for the AHB variant as that one requires qrtr-smd which in turn
requires RPMSG and GLINK and its not feasable to provide those in
backports as they are really SoC specific.
QRTR and MHI in kernel 5.10 are not usable and backporting the changes
is not easy as they have changed drastically from 5.10 to 5.15 ath11k will

Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle <daniel@makrotopia.org>
It is common for 802.11ax NICs to support more than just AP mode, which
results in there being a distinct set of HE capabilities for each mode. As
(bad) luck would have it, iw prints out info for each HE mode in sequential
order according to `enum nl80211_iftype`, and AP mode isn't always first.
As a result, the wrong set of HE capabilities can be parsed if an AP NIC
supports station (managed) mode or any other mode preceding AP mode, since
only the first set of HE capabilities printed by iw is parsed from awk's
output.
This has a noticeable impact on beamforming for example, since managed mode
usually doesn't have beamformer capabilities enabled, while AP mode does.
Hostapd won't be set up with the configs to enable beamformer capabilities
in this scenario, causing hostapd to disable beamforming to HE stations
even when it's supported by the AP.
Always parse the correct set of HE capabilities for AP mode to fix this.
This is achieved by trimming all of iw's output prior to the AP mode
capabilities, which ensures that the first set of HE capabilities are
always for AP mode.

In Turris MOX SDIO card [1], which uses Marvell 88W997 and its driver
mwifiex, you might get cryptic messages, which are not helpful to use.
@pali created patch, which improves messages by the driver and he will
send this to Linux kernel soon.

Introduce a new option background_radar to toggle hostapd's background
radar feature. Enabling this allows DFS CAC to run on dedicated radio RF
chains while the radio(s) are otherwise running normal AP activities on
other channels.
As OpenWrt configures hostapd to use a channel list even when a single
channel is configured, using this feature requires a list of channels in
/etc/config/wireless. Alternatively, channel can be set to auto.

Enable ath10k offload by default. This improves wireless performance
without requiring user configuration.
This adds ath10k_core to the AUTOLOAD section so that the frame_mode
paramter can be added to /etc/modules.d and passed to the driver.
The frame_mode 2 enables ethernet mode on the firmware/driver.
This parameter is set by passing a different value to the frame_mode
value on kmod insmod.

This reverts the airtime scheduler back from the virtual-time based scheduler
to the deficit round robin scheduler implementation.
This reduces burstiness and improves fairness by improving interaction with AQL.

The MAC can be stored in OTP memory or in flash memory, currently the
driver could read it only from OTP. Backport the patch allowing setting
the MAC address from flash. Some modules have the OTP programmed but
the ODM/OEM decided to overwrite it with value stored in flash.

Sync nl80211.h with upstream in order to maintain parity with
nl80211_copy.h shipped with hostapd.
This is necessary, as currently the enum value for
NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_RADAR_BACKGROUND mismatches between hostapd and
mac80211. This breaks background radar capability detection in hostapd.

Add ieee80211_rx_check_bss_color_collision routine in order to introduce
BSS color collision detection in mac80211 if it is not supported in HW/FW
(e.g. for mt7915 chipset).
Add IEEE80211_HW_DETECTS_COLOR_COLLISION flag to let the driver notify
BSS color collision detection is supported in HW/FW. Set this for ath11k
which apparently didn't need this code.

Some ath10k IPQ40xx devices like the MikroTik hAP ac2 and ac3 require the
BDF-s to be extracted from the device storage instead of shipping packaged
API 2 BDF-s.
This is required as MikroTik has started shipping boards that require BDF-s
to be updated, as otherwise their WLAN performance really suffers.
This is however impossible as the devices that require this are release under
the same revision and its not possible to differentiate them from devices
using the older BDF-s.
In OpenWrt we are extracting the calibration data during runtime and we are
able to extract the BDF-s in the same manner, however we cannot package the
BDF-s to API 2 format on the fly and can only use API 1 to provide BDF-s on
the fly.
This is an issue as the ath10k driver explicitly looks only for the board.bin
file and not for something like board-bus-device.bin like it does for pre-cal
data.
Due to this we have no way of providing correct BDF-s on the fly, so lets
extend the ath10k driver to first look for BDF-s in the board-bus-device.bin
format, for example: board-ahb-a800000.wifi.bin
If that fails, look for the default board file name as defined previously.
So, backport the upstream ath10k patch.

This reverts commit f9ff282d17 as during
upstream patch review process nbd pointed out, that this patch needs
more work:
"The patch looks wrong to me. I'm pretty sure that AR_CH0_TOP2 is the
correct register, the definition has an explicit check for 9561 as well.
I believe this patch works by accident because it avoids writing a wrong
value to that register."

ath9k is setting the TX PA DC bias level different on QCA9561 and QCA9565
although they have the same radio IP-core, 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.)
In real life testing, without this patch the 2.4GHz throughput on Yuncore
XD3200 is around 10Mbps sitting close to the AP, and close to theoretical
maximum with the patch applied.
