Previously, fast xmit only worked on interface types where initially a
sta lookup is performed, and a cached header can be attached to the sta,
requiring only some fields to be updated at runtime.
This technique is not directly applicable for a mesh device type due
to the dynamic nature of the topology and protocol. There are more
addresses that need to be filled, and there is an extra header with a
dynamic length based on the addressing mode.
Change the code to cache entries contain a copy of the mesh subframe header +
bridge tunnel header, as well as an embedded struct ieee80211_fast_tx, which
contains the information for building the 802.11 header.
Add a mesh specific early fast xmit call, which looks up a cached entry and
adds only the mesh subframe header, before passing it over to the generic
fast xmit code.
To ensure the changes in network are reflected in these cached headers,
flush affected cached entries on path changes, as well as other conditions
that currently trigger a fast xmit check in other modes (key changes etc.)
This code is loosely based on a previous implementation by:

When a running wake_tx_queue() call is aborted due to a hw queue stop
the corresponding iTXQ is not always correctly marked for resumption:
wake_tx_push_queue() can stops the queue run without setting

Without the @IEEE80211_TXQ_STOP_NETIF_TX flag __ieee80211_wake_txqs()

Fix the issue for all drivers - also the ones with custom wake_tx_queue

This can be used to selectively disable feature flags for checksum offload,
scatter/gather or GSO by changing vif->netdev_features.
Removing features from vif->netdev_features does not affect the netdev
features themselves, but instead fixes up skbs in the tx path so that the
offloads are not needed in the driver.
Aside from making it easier to deal with vif type based hardware limitations,
this also makes it possible to optimize performance on hardware without native
GSO support by declaring GSO support in hw->netdev_features and removing it
from vif->netdev_features. This allows mac80211 to handle GSO segmentation
after the sta lookup, but before itxq enqueue, thus reducing the number of
unnecessary sta lookups, as well as some other per-packet processing.

Properly handle TX stop for internal queues (iTXQs) within mac80211.
mac80211 must not stop netdev queues when using mac80211 iTXQs.
For these drivers the netdev interface is created with IFF_NO_QUEUE.
While netdev still drops frames for IFF_NO_QUEUE interfaces when we stop
the netdev queues, it also prints a warning when this happens:
Assuming the mac80211 interface is called wlan0 we would get
"Virtual device wlan0 asks to queue packet!" when netdev has to drop a
frame.
This patch is keeping the harmless netdev queue starts for iTXQ drivers.

Commit 10cb8e6175 ("mac80211: enable QoS support for nl80211 ctrl port")
changed ieee80211_tx_control_port() to aways call
__ieee80211_select_queue() without checking local->hw.queues.
__ieee80211_select_queue() returns a queue-id between 0 and 3, which means
that now ieee80211_tx_control_port() may end up setting the queue-mapping
for a skb to a value higher then local->hw.queues if local->hw.queues
is less then 4.
Specifically this is a problem for ralink rt2500-pci cards where
local->hw.queues is 2. There this causes rt2x00queue_get_tx_queue() to
return NULL and the following error to be logged: "ieee80211 phy0:
rt2x00mac_tx: Error - Attempt to send packet over invalid queue 2",
after which association with the AP fails.
Other callers of __ieee80211_select_queue() skip calling it when
local->hw.queues < IEEE80211_NUM_ACS, add the same check to
ieee80211_tx_control_port(). This fixes ralink rt2500-pci and
similar cards when less then 4 tx-queues no longer working.

For an AP interface, when userspace specifieds the link ID to
transmit the control port frame on (in particular for the
initial 4-way-HS), due to the logic in ieee80211_build_hdr()
for a frame transmitted from/to an MLD, we currently build a
header with
A1 = DA = MLD address of the peer MLD
A2 = local link address (!)
A3 = SA = local MLD address
This clearly makes no sense, and leads to two problems:
- if the frame were encrypted (not true for the initial
4-way-HS) the AAD would be calculated incorrectly
- if iTXQs are used, the frame is dropped by logic in
ieee80211_tx_dequeue()
Fix the addressing, which fixes the first bullet, and the
second bullet for peer MLDs, I'll fix the second one for
non-MLD peers separately.

For drivers using software encryption for multicast TX, such
as mac80211_hwsim, mac80211 needs to duplicate the multicast
frames on each link, if MLO is enabled. Do this, but don't
just make it dependent on the key but provide a separate flag
for drivers to opt out of this.
This is not very efficient, I expect that drivers will do it
in firmware/hardware or at least with DMA engine assistence,
so this is mostly for hwsim.
To make this work, also implement the SNS11 sequence number
space that an AP MLD shall have, and modify the API to the
__ieee80211_subif_start_xmit() function to always require the
link ID bits to be set.

It might seem a bit pointless to do a multi-link operation
connection with just a single link, but this is already a
big change, so for now, limit MLO connections to a single
link.
Extending that to multiple links will require
* work on parsing the multi-link element with STA profile
properly, including element fragmentation;
* checking the per-link status in the multi-link element
* implementing logic to have active/inactive links to let
drivers decide which links should be active;
* implementing multicast RX deduplication;
* and likely more.
For now this is still useful since it lets us do multi-link
connections for the purposes of testing APIs and the higher
layers such as wpa_supplicant.

In AP mode, multicast traffic is handled very differently from normal traffic,
especially if at least one client is in powersave mode.
This means that multicast packets can be buffered a lot longer than normal
unicast packets, and can eat up the AQL budget very quickly because of the low
data rate.
Along with the recent change to maintain a global PHY AQL limit, this can lead
to significant latency spikes for unicast traffic.
Since queueing multicast to hardware is currently not constrained by AQL limits
anyway, let's just exclude it from the AQL pending airtime calculation entirely.

In order to maintain fairness, the amount of queueing needs to be limited
beyond the simple per-station AQL budget, otherwise the driver can simply
repeatedly do scheduling rounds until all queues that have not used their
AQL budget become eligble.
To be conservative, use the high AQL limit for the first txq and add half
of the low AQL for each subsequent queue.

This allows proper deficit accounting to ensure that they don't carry their
deficit until the next time they become active

When queueing packets for a station, deficit only gets added once the packets
have been transmitted, which could be much later. During that time, a lot of
temporary unfairness could happen, which could lead to bursty behavior.
Fix this by subtracting the aql_tx_pending when checking the deficit in tx
scheduling.

This reverts commits 6a789ba679 and
2433647bc8.
The virtual time scheduler code has a number of issues:
- queues slowed down by hardware/firmware powersave handling were not properly
handled.
- on ath10k in push-pull mode, tx queues that the driver tries to pull from
were starved, causing excessive latency
- delay between tx enqueue and reported airtime use were causing excessively
bursty tx behavior
The bursty behavior may also be present on the round-robin scheduler, but there
it is much easier to fix without introducing additional regressions
