We have had a struct rtw89_pci_ch_dma_addr to describe register address,
so use it as regular. Since the addresses should be changed dynamically
according to operating mode, I don't change it to be constant.
These changes don't affect the logic, so I put them in this separated
patch.

Moreover, refine the filling of OFDM entry of struct rtw89_txpwr_limit
by using the value corresponding to primary channel.
E.g. center channel 38 (40Mhz bandwidth case)
Originally OFDM entry was filled by value corresponding to 'ch - 2' (36)
Now, we consider that it could be 36 or 40.
E.g. cneter channel 42 (80Mhz bandwidth case)
Originally OFDM entry was filled by value corresponding to 'ch - 6' (36)

BA CAM is used to ACK peer's packets, so it must be established when
IEEE80211_AMPDU_RX_START, and free it by IEEE80211_AMPDU_RX_STOP.
The hardware can support two static BA CAM entries, so I implement a bitmap
and a struct to record which entry is used and its corresponding tid. Also,
the hardware can learn and create dynamic BA CAM entries automatically if
received packets don't match static BA CAM. That means it can still work if
we don't use H2C to set static BA CAM. An exception is tid=0 should be
always allocated in static BA CAM, so an existing static BA CAM will be
replaced if it is full and peer is going to establish a BA with tid=0.

We are planning to support more chipsets, e.g. 8852C. Before that, we
consider architecutre to handle multiple kinds of chipsets. Obviosuly,
based on original design, rtw89_core module will have large size even
if there is only one chipset under running. It is because all chipset
related things are put in rtw89_core now. To reduce such overhead, we
extract modules of rtw89 and adjust dependencies between modules.
The following assumes that 8852AE, 8852AU, and 8852CE are all supported,
we describe the difference before and after extraction.
[Before extraction]
-------------
|------------------------------------ | rtw89_usb |
V -------------
--------------------------------------- -------------
| rtw89_core (including 8852A, 8852C) | <--- | rtw89_pci |
--------------------------------------- -------------
The data of 8852A and 8852C are built in rtw89_core.
And rtw89_pci is the entry of 8852AE and 8852CE.
And rtw89_usb is the entry of 8852AU.
[After extraction]
------------- ----------------
|----------- | rtw89_usb | <-------- | rtw89_8852au |
| ------------- ----------------
V --------------- |
-------------- | | <---------------
| rtw89_core | <--- | rtw89_8852a |
-------------- | | <---------------
^ ^ --------------- |
| | ------------- ----------------
| | | | <-------- | rtw89_8852ae |
| |----------- | rtw89_pci | ----------------
| | | <-----------------
| ------------- |
| --------------- ----------------
|--------------- | rtw89_8852c | <------ | rtw89_8852ce |
--------------- ----------------
The data of 8852A/8852C is extracted to rtw89_8852a/rtw89_8852c.
And rtw89_pci/rtw89_usb handles only common flow of pci/usb bus.
Finally, 8852AE, 8852AU, and 8852CE have individual entry modules,
i.e. rtw89_8852ae, rtw89_8852au, and rtw89_8852ce correspondingly.

Since sock.h is modified relatively often (60 times in the last
12 months) it seems worthwhile to decrease the incremental build
work.
CoDel's header includes net/inet_ecn.h which in turn includes net/sock.h.
codel.h is itself included by mac80211 which is included by much of
the WiFi stack and drivers. Removing the net/inet_ecn.h include from
CoDel breaks the dependecy between WiFi and sock.h.
Commit d068ca2ae2 ("codel: split into multiple files") moved all
the code which actually needs ECN helpers out to net/codel_impl.h,
the include can be moved there as well.
This decreases the incremental build size after touching sock.h
from 4999 objects to 4051 objects.
Fix unmasked missing includes in WiFi drivers.

The warning is because 'qsel' isn't filled by rtw89_core_tx_write() due to

Originally, cch_by_bw recorded center channels of each available
bandwidths under current bandwidth. And the plan was to iterate
cch_by_bw as parameters to query other configurations. However,
we have not used it for the time being. Keeping it will disturb
the follow-up things, such as bandwidth 160 MHz, so we remove it
for now. If it's really needed at some point, we will redesign it.

We used to fill in rx skbs' frequency field by mac80211's current

rx packets have been processed. This results in incorrect bss info.
We fix this by filling in frequency field with channel index obtained
from hardware, then fix potential cck missing issue by skb's original
hw rate. After all fix is done, convert hw rate back to the supported

The function rtw89_mac_enable_bb_rf is a void return type, so there is
no return error code to ret, so the following check for an error in ret
is redundant dead code and can be removed.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Logically dead code")
Fixes: 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:
