TI Wl18xx firmware adds a "pn16" field for AES and TKIP keys as per
their patch:

https://git.ti.com/cgit/wilink8-wlan/build-utilites/tree/patches/kernel_patches/4.19.38/0023-wlcore-Fixing-PN-drift-on-encrypted-link-after-recov.patch?h=r8.9&amp;id=a2ee50aa5190ed3b334373d6cd09b1bff56ffcf7

Add support for this, but rather than requiring the field to be
present (which would break existing firmwares), make it optional.

<content type='text'>
Using wl183x devices in AP mode with various firmwares is not stable.

The driver currently adds a station to firmware with basic rates when it
is first known to the stack using the CMD_ADD_PEER command. Once the
station has finished authorising, another CMD_ADD_PEER command is issued
to update the firmware with the rates the station can use.

However, after a random amount of time, the firmware ignores the power
management nullfunc frames from the station, and tries to send packets
while the station is asleep, resulting in lots of retries dropping down
in rate due to no response. This restricts the available bandwidth.

With this happening with several stations, the user visible effect is
the latency of interactive connections increases significantly, packets
get dropped, and in general the WiFi connections become unreliable and
unstable.

Eventually, the firmware transmit queue appears to get stuck - with
packets and blocks allocated that never clear.

TI have a couple of patches that address this, but they touch the
mac80211 core to disable NL80211_FEATURE_FULL_AP_CLIENT_STATE for *all*
wireless drivers, which has the effect of not adding the station to the
stack until later when the rates are known. This is a sledge hammer
approach to solving the problem.

The solution implemented here has the same effect, but without
impacting all drivers.

We delay adding the station to firmware until it has been authorised
in the driver, and correspondingly remove the station when unwinding
from authorised state. Adding the station to firmware allocates a hlid,
which will now happen later than the driver expects. Therefore, we need
to track when this happens so that we transmit using the correct hlid.

This patch is an equivalent fix to these two patches in TI's
wilink8-wlan repository:

We'll use bss_conf for per-link configuration later, so
move out all the non-link-specific data out into a new
struct ieee80211_vif_cfg used in the vif.

Some adjustments were done with the following spatch:

    @@
    expression sdata;
    struct ieee80211_vif *vifp;
    identifier var = { assoc, ibss_joined, aid, arp_addr_list, arp_addr_cnt, ssid, ssid_len, s1g, ibss_creator };

(though more manual fixups were needed, e.g. replacing
"vif_cfg-&gt;" by "vif-&gt;cfg." in many files.)

<title>mac80211: prepare sta handling for MLO support</title>

<id>urn:sha1:046d2e7c50e3087a32a85fd384c21f896dbccf83</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

  struct ieee80211_sta *s;
