In RX WBM error path, error packet is received with invalid
peer_id (0x3FFF) as there is no peer associated with that packet.
However, this invalid peer_id coincides with the ML peer_id valid
bit mask, causing an unnecessary search in the ML peer list.
Prevent searching the peer list for invalid peer_id and return NULL.

A multi-link client can use any link for transmissions. It can decide to
put one link in power save mode for longer periods while listening on the
other links as per MLD listen interval. Unicast management frames sent to
that link station might get dropped if that link station is in power save
mode or inactive. In such cases, firmware can take decision on which link
to use.
Allow the firmware to decide on which link management frame should be
sent on, by filling the hardware link with maximum value of u32, so that
the firmware will not have a specific link to transmit data on and so
the management frames will be link agnostic. For QCN devices, all action
frames are marked as link agnostic. For WCN devices, if the device is
configured as an AP, then all frames other than probe response frames,
authentication frames, association response frames, re-association response
frames and ADDBA response frames are marked as link agnostic and if the
device is configured as a station, then all frames other than probe request
frames, authentication frames, de-authentication frames and ADDBA response
frames are marked as link agnostic.

Currently, RX is_mcbc bit is set for packets sent from client as
destination address (DA) is multicast/broadcast address, but packets
are actually unicast as receiver address (RA) is not multicast address.
Hence, packets are not handled properly due to this is_mcbc bit.
Therefore, reset the is_mcbc bit if interface type is AP.

Currently reoqueue tid setup uses lookup table (LUT) during peer association,
but for ML peer there will be multiple link peers (belonging to different
underlying firmware) affiliated to each other. Hence the reo queue should be
setup only on one of the links which is the primary link.
Add changes to create separate ML reo queue lookup table for ML peers and use
the same while setting up rx tid for ML peer's primary link. For ML peers use
ml_peer_id instead of peer_id to setup/lookup the reo queue entry in the LUT.

To prepare the driver for MLO support, split the driver vif data structure to
scale for multiple links. This requires changing the use of arvif to per link
and not per hw which can now comprise of multiple links. Also since most
configurations from mac80211 are done per link, do refactoring of the driver
functions to apply these configurations at link level.
Split ath12k_vif which is the driver private of ieee80211_vif to store link
specific information as ath12k_link_vif. For default use cases the ath12k vif
will have a preallocated link vif called deflink which will be used by non ML
and the first link vif of ML vif.
With MLO support to be added, remaining link vifs will be allocated during
channel assignment where vdev create/start happens. These link vifs will be
freed during interface down.
Current ath12k_vif(arvif) structure
+---------------+ +---------------+ +---------------+
| ieee80211_vif | | ieee80211_vif | | ieee80211_vif |

+---------------+ +---------------+ +---------------+
The new ath12k_vif (ahvif) containing ath12k_link_vif(s) (arvif) (deflink is
preallocated member which is always the first link if ieee80211_vif is MLD and
is the only link otherwise):

| | +---------------+ |
| | | *ar(6GHz) | |
| +-------------------------------+
| |
+---------------------------------+
To refactor existing ath12k_vif to make use of link vifs, following
changes are made:
1. ath12k_vif now called by variable name ahvif storing multiple
arvifs (struct ah12k_link_vif) and also has a back pointer to ieee80211_vif.
2. In this patch set, only deflink is used to be on par with the
existing code. When MLO support is added the link id will be used to fetch
the arvif.
3. For mac80211 ops which doesn't use specific link_id, the config or info
is common for the vif, hence apply the config to all link vifs.
The links_map in the ahvif, will be used to identify all the link vifs that
are setup.
4. Change ath12k_vif_to_arvif() as ath12k_vif_to_ahvif() to fetch the
hw level vif. The link vif can be fetched from ahvif->link[], or the
deflink can be accessed via ahvif->deflink. API to access link
vif (arvif) by passing link_id can be introduced with MLO Support.
5. The ieee80211_vif can be accessed from ahvif using ath12k_ahvif_to_vif().
The locking continues to use wiphy_lock() for protecting access to most data in
struct ath12k&co, there are no changes in that regard. Though struct
ath12k_vif::link[] is protected with RCU.

Switch from using driver specific ar->conf_mutex to wiphy->mtx. The benefits are:
* one lock less and simplified locking
* possibility to use wiphy_work_queue() without other locks
Most of the mac80211 ops are called within wiphy_lock(), most notable exception
being tx op. This can be checked with lockdep_assert_wiphy() from
net/mac80211/driver-ops.[ch] and I veried that by manually going through all
the ops in ath12k_ops which had lockdep_assert_wiphy().
The conversion was simple:
* All conf_mutex lock() and unlock() calls which
already were called under wiphy_lock() I replaced with
lockdep_assert_wiphy().
* The rest of conf_mutex calls I replaced with wiphy_lock() and wiphy_unlock().
* All lockdep_asset_held(conf_mutex) calls I replaced with
lockdep_assert_wiphy().
One exception was in ath12k_core_post_reconfigure_recovery() where the wiphy
lock needs to be taken before hw_mutex to avoid a lockdep warning.

ath12k is a new mac80211 driver for Qualcomm Wi-Fi 7 devices, first
supporting QCN9274 and WCN7850 PCI devices. QCN9274 supports both AP
and station; WCN7850 supports only station mode. Monitor mode is not
(yet) supported. Only PCI bus devices are supported.
ath12k is forked from an earlier version of ath11k. It was simpler to
have a "clean start" for the new generation and not try to share the
code with ath11k. This makes maintenance easier and avoids major
changes in ath11k, which would have significantly increased the risk
of regressions in existing setups.
ath12k uses le32 and cpu_to_le32() macros to handle endian
conversions, instead of using the firmware byte swap feature utilized
by ath11k. There is only one kernel module, named ath12k.ko.
Currently ath12k only supports HE mode (IEEE 802.11ax) or older, but
work is ongoing to add EHT mode (IEEE 802.11be) support.
The size of the driver is ~41 kLOC and 45 files. To make the review
easier, this initial version of ath12k does not support Device Tree,
debugfs or any other extra features. Those will be added later, after
ath12k is accepted to upstream.
The driver is build tested by Intel's kernel test robot with both GCC
and Clang. Sparse reports no warnings. The driver is mostly free of
checkpatch warnings, albeit few of the warnings are omitted on
purpose, list of them here:
https://github.com/qca/qca-swiss-army-knife/blob/master/tools/scripts/ath12k/ath12k-check#L52
The driver has had multiple authors who are listed in alphabetical
order below.
