Currently the driver allows the WiFi chip enter power save mode
by checking the transmitting and receiving traffic is very low
per two seconds. But it's hard for some applications to enter
power save mode, like video streaming, which sends burst traffic
regularly for other side to buffer and only send little traffic
at most time. So adjust the criteria to enter power save while
lower than 10Mbps and check it per 100ms. Thus WiFi chip could
reduce power consumption under these applications.

The drv_priv hooked to mac80211 become as below.
(drv_priv) (instance-0)
+---------------+ +-----------+ +----------------+
| ieee80211_vif | <---> | rtw89_vif | -------> | rtw89_vif_link |
+---------------+ +-----------+ | +----------------+
|
| (instance-1)
| +----------------+
+---> | rtw89_vif_link |
+----------------+
(drv_priv) (instance-0)
+---------------+ +-----------+ +----------------+
| ieee80211_sta | <---> | rtw89_sta | -------> | rtw89_sta_link |
+---------------+ +-----------+ | +----------------+
|
| (instance-1)
| +----------------+
+---> | rtw89_sta_link |
+----------------+
The relation bewteen mac80211 link_id and our link instance is like below.
|\
(link_id) | \
0 -------- | |
1 -------- | | ------ instance-0 (link_id: X) -> work on HW band 0
2 -------- | |
... | | ------ instance-1 (link_id: Y) -> work on HW band 1
14 -------- | |
| /
|/
N.B. For cases of non-MLD connection, we set our link instance-0
active with link_id 0. So, our code flow can be compatible between
non-MLD connection and MLD connection.
Based on above, we tweak entire driver architecture first. But, we don't
dynamically enable multiple links here. That will be handled separately.
Most of the things changed here are changing flows to iterate all active
links and read bss_conf/link_sta data according to target link. And, for
cases of scan, ROC, WOW, we use instance-0 to deal with the request.
There are some things listed below, which work for now but need to extend
before multiple active links.
1. tx path
select suitable link instance among multiple active links
2. rx path
determine rx link by PPDU instead of always link instance-0
3. CAM
apply MLD pairwise key to any active links dynamically
Besides, PS code cannot easily work along with tweaking architecture. With
supporting MLO flag (currently false), we disable PS first and will fix it
by another commit in the following.

This is an intermediate version that is separated from subsequent major
MLO changes, so some functions' namings are not really determined here.
e.g. struct rtw89_vif_link *vif_to_rtwvif_safe(struct ieee80211_vif *vif)
No logic is changed.

Net-detect is an option of WoWLAN to allow the device to
be woken up from suspend mode when configured network is detected.
When user enables net-detect and lets the device enter suspend
state, WoWLAN firmware will periodically scan until beacon or
probe response of configured networks are received. If configured
networks are detected, WoWLAN firmware will trigger resume process.

When net-detect is enabled, WoWLAN firmware will periodically
scan until beacon or probe response of configured networks are
received. To reduce power consumption, the FW-IPS mode is
implemented to keep WiFi chip in idle mode between each scan.
The FW-IPS is controlled by WoWLAN firmware to turn of some critical
electrical components, and is different from the original IPS mode
which most electrical components are turned off.

Once we connect to AP with 802.11w enabled, IGTK rekey happen during GTK
happen. We get IGTK IPN from mac80211 and set to firmware, and get latest
IGTK IPN from AOAC report then update to mac80211 after resume. When rekey
happen, also update new IGTK key info to mac80211. Furthermore, We
construct SA query reply packet to firmware. If firmware received SA query
request from AP can transmit reply back when suspend.

When resume we parse AOAC report from firmware using H2C and C2H

After enable interrupt, we parse AOAC report using H2C and C2H commands,
then update PTK TX PN and update new GTK key info if GTK rekey during
suspend. Furthermore, We update pattern match index if wakeup by pattern.

WoWLAN is a feature which allows devices to be woken up from suspend
state through WLAN events.
When user enables WoWLAN feature and then let the device enter suspend
state, WoWLAN firmware will be loaded by the driver and periodically
monitors WiFi packets. Power consumption of WiFi chip will be reduced
in this state.
We now implement WoWLAN function in rtw8852ae and rtw8852ce chip.
Currently supported WLAN events include receiving magic packet,
rekey packet and deauth packet, and disconnecting from AP.
