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] mac80211: increase quantum for airtime scheduler
Given the typical AQL budget and queue length, a quantum of 256 with the
default station weight often requires iterating over all queues frequently,
until one of them becomes eligible.
Improve performance by using 8 times station weight as scheduler quantum
