wireless-drivers-next patches for v5.16
Second set of patches for v5.16 and this time we have a big one. We
have the new Realtek driver rtw89 with over 90 kLOC and also over 150
patches for mt76. ath9k also got few new small features. And the usual
cleanups and fixes all over.
Major changes:
rtw89
* new Realtek 802.11ax driver
* supports Realtek 8852AE 802.11ax 2x2 chip
ath9k
* add option to reset the wifi chip via debugfs
* convert Device Tree bindings to the json-schema
* support Device Tree ieee80211-freq-limit property to limit channels
mt76
* mt7921 aspm support
* mt7921 testmode support
* mt7915 LED support
* mt7921 6GHz band support
* support for eeprom data in DT
* mt7915 TWT support
* mt7921s SDIO support
* tag 'wireless-drivers-next-2021-10-22' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/wireless-drivers-next: (213 commits)
zd1201: use eth_hw_addr_set()

Commit 406f42fa0d ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount
of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look
up. To maintain netdev->dev_addr in this tree we need to make all
the writes to it got through appropriate helpers.

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.

In firmware dumps, currently all kinds of key material may be
included, e.g. in host commands (if firmware crashes during the
processing of a key-related command) or in the TX FIFO(s) if
we have been using in-TX-command key material.
Additionally, some firmware versions will advertise sections
of their internal data to not dump, due to them containing some
sensitive data.
Add some infrastructure to allow scrubbing this data out, as
dependent on the opmode's idea of what will need to be done.
