wifi: mac80211: recalc chanctx mindef before assigning

When we allocate a new channel context, or find an existing one
that is compatible, we currently assign it to a link before its
mindef is updated. This leads to strange situations, especially
in link switching where you switch to an 80 MHz link and expect
it to be active immediately, but the mindef is still configured
to 20 MHz while assigning. Also, it's strange that the chandef
passed to the assign method's argument is wider than the one in
the context.

Fix this by calculating the mindef with the new link considered
before calling the driver.

In particular, this fixes an iwlwifi problem during link switch
where the firmware would assert because the (link) station that
was added for the AP is configured to transmit at a bandwidth
that's wider than the channel context that it's configured on.

wifi: mac80211: consider reserved chanctx for mindef

When a chanctx is reserved for a new vif and we recalculate
the minimal definition for it, we need to consider the new
interface it's being reserved for before we assign it, so it
can be used directly with the correct min channel width.

Fix the code to - optionally - consider that, and use that
option just before doing the reassignment.

Also, when considering channel context reservations, we
should only consider the one link we're currently working with.
Change the boolean argument to a link pointer to do that.

wifi: mac80211: isolate driver from inactive links

In order to let the driver select active links and properly
make multi-link connections, as a first step isolate the
driver from inactive links, and set the active links to be
only the association link for client-side interfaces. For
AP side nothing changes since APs always have to have all
their links active.

To simplify things, update the for_each_sta_active_link()
API to include the appropriate vif pointer.

This also implies not allocating a chanctx for an inactive
link, which requires a few more changes.

Since we now no longer try to program multiple links to the
driver, remove the check in the MLME code.

mac80211: prepare sta handling for MLO support

Currently in mac80211 each STA object is represented
using sta_info datastructure with the associated
STA specific information and drivers access ieee80211_sta
part of it.

With MLO (Multi Link Operation) support being added
in 802.11be standard, though the association is logically
with a single Multi Link capable STA, at the physical level
communication can happen via different advertised
links (uniquely identified by Channel, operating class,
BSSID) and hence the need to handle multiple link
STA parameters within a composite sta_info object
called the MLD STA. The different link STA part of
MLD STA are identified using the link address which can
be same or different as the MLD STA address and unique
link id based on the link vif.

To support extension of such a model, the sta_info
datastructure is modified to hold multiple link STA
objects with link specific params currently within
sta_info moved to this new structure. Similarly this is
done for ieee80211_sta as well which will be accessed
within mac80211 as well as by drivers, hence trivial
driver changes are expected to support this.

For current non MLO supported drivers, only one link STA
is present and link information is accessed via 'deflink'
member.

For MLO drivers, we still need to define the APIs etc. to
get the correct link ID and access the correct part of
the station info.

Currently in mac80211, all link STA info are accessed directly
via deflink. These will be updated to access via link pointers
indexed by link id with MLO support patches, with link id
being 0 for non MLO supported cases.

Except for couple of macro related changes, below spatch takes
care of updating mac80211 and driver code to access to the
link STA info via deflink.

wifi: mac80211: fix use-after-free in chanctx code

commit 2965c4cdf7ad9ce0796fac5e57debb9519ea721e upstream.

In ieee80211_vif_use_reserved_context(), when we have an
old context and the new context's replace_state is set to
IEEE80211_CHANCTX_REPLACE_NONE, we free the old context
in ieee80211_vif_use_reserved_reassign(). Therefore, we
cannot check the old_ctx anymore, so we should set it to
NULL after this point.

However, since the new_ctx replace state is clearly not
IEEE80211_CHANCTX_REPLACES_OTHER, we're not going to do
anything else in this function and can just return to
avoid accessing the freed old_ctx.

mac80211: handle rate control (RC) racing with chanctx definition

chanctx represents the current phy configuration and rate scale uses
it for achieving max throughput, so if phy changes bandwidth to narrow
bandwidth, RC should be _first_ updated to avoid using the wider bandwidth
before updating the phy, and vice versa.

We assume in the patch that station interface is always updated before
updating phy context by calling ieee80211_vif_update_chandef.
