Felix Fietkau 1bfcc1ea8a mac80211: update to version 6.9.9
Brings lots of driver updates and API changes needed for mt76 updates.
Disable iwlwifi and ath11k on 5.15, since backport is too difficult,
and the only remaining targets won't need those drivers.

Subject: [PATCH] ath11k: support setting FW memory mode via DT
ath11k is really memory intensive for devices with less that 1GB of RAM,
so lets allow saving a significant amount of memory by setting the FW to
Mode-1 via DTS for devices that need it.
However the drawback is reduced number of VDEV-s and peers which is a
reasonable tradeoff.
Mode-2 allows for further reduction, but it has further restrictions.
While we are here, lets add a print to be able to easily determine what
FW memory mode is being used.
