When trying to associate to an AP support 180 or 80+80 MHz on 6 GHz with a
STA that only has 80 Mhz support the cf2 field inside the chandef will get
set causing the association to fail when trying to validate the chandef.
Fix this by checking the support flags prior to setting cf2.

If the AP advertises inconsistent data, namely it has CCFS1 or CCFS2,
but doesn't advertise support for 160/80+80 bandwidth or "Extended NSS
BW Support", then we cannot use any MCSes in the the higher bandwidth.
Thus, avoid connecting with higher bandwidth since it's less efficient
that way.

Before this patch, STA's would set new width of 160/80+80 MHz based on AP capability only.
This is wrong because STA may not support > 80MHz BW.
Fix is to verify STA has 160/80+80 MHz capability before increasing its width to > 80MHz.
The "support_80_80" and "support_160" setting is based on:
"Table 9-272 — Setting of the Supported Channel Width Set subfield and Extended NSS BW

We only use the parsing CRC for checking if a beacon changed,
and elements with an ID > 63 cannot be represented in the
filter. Thus, like we did before with WMM and Cisco vendor
elements, just statically add these forgotten items to the
CRC:
- WLAN_EID_VHT_OPERATION
- WLAN_EID_OPMODE_NOTIF
I guess that in most cases when VHT/HE operation change, the HT
operation also changed, and so the change was picked up, but we
did notice that pure operating mode notification changes were
ignored.

When we expire an inactive station, try to send it a deauth. This
helps if it's actually still around, and just has issues with
beacon distribution (or we do), and it will not also remove us.
Then, if we have shared state, this may not be reset properly,
causing problems; for example, we saw a case where aggregation
sessions weren't removed properly (due to the TX start being
offloaded to firmware and it relying on deauth for stop), causing
a lot of traffic to get lost due to the SN reset after remove/add
of the peer.

In case we got a fw restart while roaming from encrypted AP to
non-encrypted one, we might end up with hitting a warning on the pending
counter crypto_tx_tailroom_pending_dec having a non-zero value.
The following comment taken from net/mac80211/key.c explains the rational
for the delayed tailroom needed:
/*
* The reason for the delayed tailroom needed decrementing is to
* make roaming faster: during roaming, all keys are first deleted
* and then new keys are installed. The first new key causes the
* crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt to go from 0 to 1, which invokes
* the cost of synchronize_net() (which can be slow). Avoid this
* by deferring the crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt decrementing on
* key removal for a while, so if we roam the value is larger than
* zero and no 0->1 transition happens.
*
* The cost is that if the AP switching was from an AP with keys
* to one without, we still allocate tailroom while it would no
* longer be needed. However, in the typical (fast) roaming case
* within an ESS this usually won't happen.
*/
The next flow lead to the warning eventually reported as a bug:
1. Disconnect from encrypted AP
2. Set crypto_tx_tailroom_pending_dec = 1 for the key
3. Schedule work
4. Reconnect to non-encrypted AP
5. Add a new key, setting the tailroom counter = 1
6. Got FW restart while pending counter is set ---> hit the warning
While on it, the ieee80211_reset_crypto_tx_tailroom() func was merged into
its single caller ieee80211_reenable_keys (previously called
ieee80211_enable_keys). Also, we reset the crypto_tx_tailroom_pending_dec
and remove the counters warning as we just reset both.

Commit 33d915d9e8 ("{nl,mac}80211: allow 4addr AP operation on
crypto controlled devices") has introduced a change which allows
4addr operation on crypto controlled devices (ex: ath10k). This
change has inadvertently impacted the interface combinations logic
on such devices.
General rule is that software interfaces like AP/VLAN should not be
listed under supported interface combinations and should not be
considered during validation of these combinations; because of the
aforementioned change, AP/VLAN interfaces(if present) will be checked
against interfaces supported by the device and blocks valid interface
combinations.
Consider a case where an AP and AP/VLAN are up and running; when a
second AP device is brought up on the same physical device, this AP
will be checked against the AP/VLAN interface (which will not be
part of supported interface combinations of the device) and blocks
second AP to come up.
Add a new API cfg80211_iftype_allowed() to fix the problem, this
API works for all devices with/without SW crypto control.

As per the current design, in the case of sw crypto controlled devices,
it is the device which advertises the support for AP/VLAN iftype based
on it's ability to tranmsit packets encrypted in software
(In VLAN functionality, group traffic generated for a specific
VLAN group is always encrypted in software). Commit db3bdcb9c3
("mac80211: allow AP_VLAN operation on crypto controlled devices")
has introduced this change.
Since 4addr AP operation also uses AP/VLAN iftype, this conditional
way of advertising AP/VLAN support has broken 4addr AP mode operation on
crypto controlled devices which do not support VLAN functionality.
In the case of ath10k driver, not all firmwares have support for VLAN
functionality but all can support 4addr AP operation. Because AP/VLAN
support is not advertised for these devices, 4addr AP operations are
also blocked.
Fix this by allowing 4addr operation on devices which do not support
AP/VLAN iftype but can support 4addr AP operation (decision is based on
the wiphy flag WIPHY_FLAG_4ADDR_AP).

The iTXQs stop/wake queue mechanism involves a whole bunch
of locks and this is probably why the call to
ieee80211_wake_txqs is deferred to a tasklet when called from
__ieee80211_wake_queue.
Another advantage of that is that ieee80211_wake_txqs might
call the wake_tx_queue() callback and then the driver may
call mac80211 which will call it back in the same context.
The bug I saw is that when we send a deauth frame as a
station we do:
flush(drop=1)
tx deauth
flush(drop=0)
While we flush we stop the queues and wake them up
immediately after we finished flushing. The problem here is
that the tasklet that de-facto enables the queue may not have
run until we send the deauth. Then the deauth frame is sent
to the driver (which is surprising by itself), but the driver
won't get anything useful from ieee80211_tx_dequeue because
the queue is stopped (or more precisely because
vif->txqs_stopped[0] is true).
Then the deauth is not sent. Later on, the tasklet will run,
but that'll be too late. We'll already have removed all the
vif etc...
Fix this by calling ieee80211_wake_txqs synchronously if we
are not waking up the queues from the driver (we check the
reason to determine that). This makes the code really
convoluted because we may call ieee80211_wake_txqs from
__ieee80211_wake_queue. The latter assumes that
queue_stop_reason_lock has been taken by the caller and
ieee80211_wake_txqs may release the lock to send the frames.

Johannes Berg says:
====================
Here are quite a large number of fixes, notably:
* various A-MSDU building fixes (currently only affects mt76)
* syzkaller & spectre fixes in hwsim
* TXQ vs. teardown fix that was causing crashes
* embed WMM info in reg rule, bad code here had been causing crashes
* one compilation issue with fix from Arnd (rfkill-gpio includes)
* fixes for a race and bad data during/after channel switch
* nl80211: a validation fix, attribute type & unit fixes
along with other small fixes.

In commit 9236c4523e5b ("mac80211: limit wmm params to comply
with ETSI requirements"), we have limited the WMM parameters to
comply with 802.11 and ETSI standard. Mistakenly the TXOP value
was caluclated wrong. Fix it by taking the minimum between
802.11 to ETSI to make sure we are not violating both.

Sometimes, it is required to stop the transmissions momentarily and
resume it later; stopping the txqs becomes very critical in scenarios where
the packet transmission has to be ceased completely. For example, during
the hardware restart, during off channel operations,
when initiating CSA(upon detecting a radar on the DFS channel), etc.
The TX queue stop/start logic in mac80211 works well in stopping the TX
when drivers make use of netdev queues, i.e, when Qdiscs in network layer
take care of traffic scheduling. Since the devices implementing
wake_tx_queue can run without Qdiscs, packets will be handed to mac80211
directly without queueing them in the netdev queues.
Also, mac80211 does not invoke any of the
netif_stop_*/netif_wake_* APIs if wake_tx_queue is implemented.
Since the queues are not stopped in this case, transmissions can continue
and this will impact negatively on the operation of the wireless device.
For example,
During hardware restart, we stop the netdev queues so that packets are
not sent to the driver. Since ath10k implements wake_tx_queue,
TX queues will not be stopped and packets might reach the hardware while
it is restarting; this can make hardware unresponsive and the only
possible option for recovery is to reboot the entire system.
There is another problem to this, it is observed that the packets
were sent on the DFS channel for a prolonged duration after radar
detection impacting the channel closing time.
We can still invoke netif stop/wake APIs when wake_tx_queue is implemented
but this could lead to packet drops in network layer; adding stop/start
logic for software TXQs in mac80211 instead makes more sense; the change
proposed adds the same in mac80211.

Make wmm_rule be part of the reg_rule structure. This simplifies the
code a lot at the cost of having bigger memory usage. However in most
cases we have only few reg_rule's and when we do have many like in
iwlwifi we do not save memory as it allocates a separate wmm_rule for
each channel anyway.
This also fixes a bug reported in various places where somewhere the
pointers were corrupted and we ended up doing a null-dereference.
