75c5bd68b6 ieee80211: change HE nominal packet padding value defines
It's easier to use and understand, and to extend for EHT later,
if we use the values here instead of the shifted values.

Unfortunately, we need to add _POS so that we can use it in
places like iwlwifi/mvm where constants are needed.

While at it, fix the typo ("NOMIMAL") which also helps catch any
conflicts.

5737b4515d rtw89: update partition size of firmware header on skb->data
The partition size is used to tell hardware the size of piece we are going
to send a firmware. The old code updates the size in constant buffer of
firmware, and leads system crash.

To fix this, update the size on skb->data after we copy the firmware data
into skb.

e3ec7017f6 rtw89: add Realtek 802.11ax driver
This driver named rtw89, which is the next generation of rtw88, supports
Realtek 8852AE 802.11ax 2x2 chip whose new features are OFDMA, DBCC,
Spatial reuse, TWT and BSS coloring; now some of them aren't implemented
though.

The chip architecture is entirely different from the chips supported by
rtw88 like RTL8822CE 802.11ac chip. First of all, register address ranges
are totally redefined, so it's impossible to reuse register definition. To
communicate with firmware, new H2C/C2H format is proposed. In order to have
better utilization, TX DMA flow is changed to two stages DMA. To provide
rich RX status information, additional RX PPDU packets are added.

Since there are so many differences mentioned above, we decide to propose
a new driver. It has many authors, they are listed in alphabetic order:
