This change fix the TX ack mechanism in various ways:
- For NO_ACK tagged packets, we don't need to wait for TX_ACK indication
and so are not subject to the single packet ack limitation. So we don't
have to stop the tx queue, and can call the tx status callback as soon
as DMA transfer has completed.
- Fix skb ownership/reference. Only start status indication timeout
once the DMA transfer has been completed. This avoids the skb to be
both referenced in the DMA tx ring and by the tx_ack_skb pointer,
preventing any use-after-free or double-free.
- This adds a sanity (paranoia?) check on the skb tx ack pointer.
- Resume TX queue if TX status tagged packet TX fails.

We observe unexpected connection drops with some APs due to
non-acked mac80211 generated null data frames (keep-alive).
After debugging and capture, we noticed that null frames are
submitted at standard data bitrate and that the given APs are
in trouble with that.
After setting the null frame bitrate to control bitrate, all
null frames are acked as expected and connection is maintained.
Not sure if it's a requirement of the specification, but it seems
the right thing to do anyway, null frames are mostly used for control
purpose (power-saving, keep-alive...), and submitting them with
a slower/simpler bitrate/modulation is more robust.

Commit 9af7c32cec ("ath10k: add target IRAM recovery feature support")
introduced a new firmware feature flag ATH10K_FW_FEATURE_IRAM_RECOVERY. But
this caused ath10k_pci module load to fail if ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_RAM_DATA bit
was not enabled in the ath10k coredump_mask module parameter:

[ 2213.933910] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: could not probe fw (-12)
And by default coredump_mask does not have ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_RAM_DATA
enabled so anyone using a firmware with iram-recovery feature would fail. To my
knowledge only QCA9984 firmwares starting from release 10.4-3.9.0.2-00099
enabled the feature.
The reason for regression was that ath10k_core_copy_target_iram() used
ath10k_coredump_get_mem_layout() to get the memory layout, but when
ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_RAM_DATA was disabled it would get just NULL and bail out
with an error.
While looking at all this I noticed another bug: if CONFIG_DEV_COREDUMP is
disabled but the firmware has iram-recovery enabled the module load fails with
similar error messages. I fixed that by returning 0 from
ath10k_core_copy_target_iram() when _ath10k_coredump_get_mem_layout() returns
NULL.

Using a kernel pointer in place of a dma_addr_t token can
lead to undefined behavior if that makes it into cache
management functions. The compiler caught one such attempt
in a cast:
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/mac.c: In function 'ath10k_add_interface':
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/mac.c:5586:47: error: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Werror=pointer-to-int-cast]
5586 | arvif->beacon_paddr = (dma_addr_t)arvif->beacon_buf;
| ^
Looking through how this gets used down the way, I'm fairly
sure that beacon_paddr is never accessed again for ATH10K_DEV_TYPE_HL
devices, and if it was accessed, that would be a bug.
Change the assignment to use a known-invalid address token
instead, which avoids the warning and makes it easier to catch
bugs if it does end up getting used.

When the EEPROM data is stored on a MTD partition print an error message
when reading this MTD partition failed. This is currently happening
often in OpenWrt because the initial data was written with using a flash
driver which ignores the error detection data and now OpenWrt uses a
driver which checks it.
With this patch a better error message is shown:

commit 7f4b792031 ("mt76: mt7615: add ibss support") introduced IBSS
and commit f4ec7fdf7f ("mt76: mt7615: enable support for mesh")
meshpoint support.
Both used in the "get_omac_idx"-function:
if (~mask & BIT(HW_BSSID_0))
return HW_BSSID_0;
With commit d8d59f66d1 ("mt76: mt7615: support 16 interfaces") the
ibss and meshpoint mode should "prefer hw bssid slot 1-3". However,
with that change the ibss or meshpoint mode will not send any beacon on
the mt7622 wifi anymore. Devices were still able to exchange data but
only if a bssid already existed. Two mt7622 devices will never be able
to communicate.
This commits reverts the preferation of slot 1-3 for ibss and
meshpoint. Only NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION will still prefer slot 1-3.
Tested on Banana Pi R64.

Sometimes some NICs may fail to initialize, but if we have
such a scenario we may only see an alive timeout (i.e. the
firmware doesn't send us the alive message), and that will
only cause us to fail the interface up.
Try to once grab NIC access during device probe to ensure
we can properly talk to the hardware at all, and to do all
the potential workarounds in that function.
Since we now finish NIC init here, we can remove it from
the later potential read of the RF ID.

When auth/assoc completes, we should remove session protection,
except when association is successful, where we need it until a
beacon is received from the AP.
In particular, in the case of assoc comeback, currently the session
protection event just times out, leading to confusing messages:
wlan0: 42:00:00:00:00:00 rejected association temporarily; comeback duration 1000 TU (1024 ms)
iwlwifi 0000:00:00.0: Not associated and the session protection is over already...
wlan0: Connection to AP 42:00:00:00:00:00 lost
wlan0: associate with 42:00:00:00:00:00 (try 2/3)
mac80211 never does anything on the "Connection ... lost" as it's
not even connected.
Removing the session protection when it's no longer needed removes
those confusing messages and lets the device do other things in the
allocated time.
