txpower_info_{2g,5g} are too big to fit on the stack, but in most of the
rtlwifi variants this stays below the warning limit for stack frames.
In rtl8192ee and a few others, I see a case where clang decides to fully
inline this into rtl92ee_read_eeprom_info, triggering this warning:
drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/rtl8192ee/hw.c:2178:6: error: stack frame size (1312) exceeds limit (1280) in 'rtl92ee_read_eeprom_info' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]
Mark _rtl92ee_read_txpower_info_from_hwpg() as noinline_for_stack to
and mark _rtl92ee_get_chnl_group() as __always_inline to make clang
behave the same way as gcc. Inlining _rtl92ee_get_chnl_group helps
let the compiler see that the index is always in range. The same
change appears to be necessary in all rtlwifi variants.
A more thorough approach would be to avoid the use of the two structures
on the stack entirely and combine them with the struct rtl_efuse
data that is dynamically allocated and holds the same information.

Currently in mac80211 each STA object is represented
using sta_info datastructure with the associated
STA specific information and drivers access ieee80211_sta
part of it.
With MLO (Multi Link Operation) support being added
in 802.11be standard, though the association is logically
with a single Multi Link capable STA, at the physical level
communication can happen via different advertised
links (uniquely identified by Channel, operating class,
BSSID) and hence the need to handle multiple link
STA parameters within a composite sta_info object
called the MLD STA. The different link STA part of
MLD STA are identified using the link address which can
be same or different as the MLD STA address and unique
link id based on the link vif.
To support extension of such a model, the sta_info
datastructure is modified to hold multiple link STA
objects with link specific params currently within
sta_info moved to this new structure. Similarly this is
done for ieee80211_sta as well which will be accessed
within mac80211 as well as by drivers, hence trivial
driver changes are expected to support this.
For current non MLO supported drivers, only one link STA
is present and link information is accessed via 'deflink'
member.
For MLO drivers, we still need to define the APIs etc. to
get the correct link ID and access the correct part of
the station info.
Currently in mac80211, all link STA info are accessed directly
via deflink. These will be updated to access via link pointers
indexed by link id with MLO support patches, with link id
being 0 for non MLO supported cases.
Except for couple of macro related changes, below spatch takes
care of updating mac80211 and driver code to access to the
link STA info via deflink.

There has been a coding error in rtl8821ae since it was first introduced,
namely that an 8-bit register was read using a 16-bit read in
_rtl8821ae_dbi_read(). This error was fixed with commit 40b368af4b
("rtlwifi: Fix alignment issues"); however, this change led to
instability in the connection. To restore stability, this change
was reverted in commit b8b8b16352 ("rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix connection
lost problem").
Unfortunately, the unaligned access causes machine checks in ARM
architecture, and we were finally forced to find the actual cause of the
problem on x86 platforms. Following a suggestion from Pkshih
<pkshih@realtek.com>, it was found that increasing the ASPM L1
latency from 0 to 7 fixed the instability. This parameter was varied to
see if a smaller value would work; however, it appears that 7 is the
safest value. A new symbol is defined for this quantity, thus it can be
easily changed if necessary.

EEPROM_BOOT_EFUSE, the rest of the function uses undefined data, resulting
in random behavior later.

====================
here's a bigger pull request for 4.4. The diffstat looks scary as we
created a new directory realtek for all realtek drivers. In the future
I'm planning to create similar directories for all vendors, currently we
just have ath, mediatek and realtek. This change has been in linux-next
for a couple of weeks so it should be safe, but of course you never
know.
There's also a new driver rtl8xxxu for few realtek USB devices. This
just made it to the last linux-next build.
Otherwise there's nothing really special, more info below. If time
permits, and it's ok for you, I'm hoping to send you a one more pull
request this week.
brcmfmac
* using netdev carrier state
* add and rework some cfg80211 callbacks mainly for AP mode
* use devcoredump when triggered by firmware event
realtek
* create new directory drivers/net/wireless/realtek/ for all realtek
drivers, not visible to users (no kconfig changes etc)
* add rtl8xxxu, a new mac80211 driver for RTL8723AU, RTL8188CU,
RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, RTL8192CU and hopefully more in the future
ath10k
* add board 2 API support for automatically choosing correct board file
* data path optimisations
* disable PCI power save for qca988x and QCA99x0 due to interop reasons
wil6210
* BlockAckReq support
* firmware crashdump using devcoredump
* capture all frames with sniffer

Now that a new mac80211-based driver for Realtek devices has been submitted,
it is time to reorganize the directories. Rather than having directories
rtlwifi and rtl818x be in drivers/net/wireless/, they will now be in
drivers/net/wireless/realtek/. This change simplifies the directory
structure, but does not result in any configuration changes that are
visable to the user.
