[ Upstream commit a0ca76e5b7d550fcd74753d5fdaaf23f1a9bfdb4 ]
It's not valid to call ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify() with
an sdata that's an MLD, remove the FIXME comment (it's not true)
and add a warning.

[ Upstream commit 730538edc8e0eb14b02708f65100a0deaf43e6cd ]
Lock the wiphy in the IP address notifier as another
place that should have it locked before calling into
the driver. This needs a bit of attention since the
notifier can be called while the wiphy is already
locked, when we remove an interface. Handle this by
not running the notifier in this case, and instead
calling out to the driver directly.

commit 321028bc45f01edb9e57b0ae5c11c5c3600d00ca upstream.
As noticed by syzbot, calling ieee80211_handle_queued_frames()
(and actually handling frames there) requires softirqs to be
disabled, since we call into the RX code. Fix that in the case
of cleaning up frames left over during shutdown.

[ Upstream commit 177c6ae9725d783f9e96f02593ce8fb2639be22f ]
The code itself doesn't want to handle frames from the driver
if it's already stopped, but if the tasklet was queued before
and runs after the stop, then all bets are off. Flush queues
before actually stopping, RX should be off at this point since
all the interfaces are removed already, etc.

It can be really hard to analyse or debug why packets are
going missing in mac80211, so add the needed infrastructure
to use use the new per-subsystem drop reasons.
We actually use two drop reason subsystems here because of
the different handling of frames that are dropped but still
go to monitor for old versions of hostapd, and those that
are just completely unusable (e.g. crypto failed.)
Annotate a few reasons here just to illustrate this, we'll
need to go through and annotate more of them later.

ieee80211_handle_wake_tx_queue must not run concurrent multiple times.
It calls ieee80211_txq_schedule_start() and the drivers migrated to iTXQ
do not expect overlapping drv_tx() calls.
This fixes 'c850e31f79f0 ("wifi: mac80211: add internal handler for
wake_tx_queue")', which introduced ieee80211_handle_wake_tx_queue.
Drivers started to use it with 'a790cc3a4fad ("wifi: mac80211: add
wake_tx_queue callback to drivers")'.
But only after fixing an independent bug with
'4444bc2116ae ("wifi: mac80211: Proper mark iTXQs for resumption")'
problematic concurrent calls really happened and exposed the initial
issue.

Adds support in mac80211 for NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_POWERED_ADDR_CHANGE.
The motivation behind this functionality is to fix limitations of
address randomization on frequencies which are disallowed in world
roaming.
The way things work now, if a client wants to randomize their address
per-connection it must power down the device, change the MAC, and
power back up. Here lies a problem since powering down the device
may result in frequencies being disabled (until the regdom is set).
If the desired BSS is on one such frequency the client is unable to
connect once the phy is powered again.
For mac80211 based devices changing the MAC while powered is possible
but currently disallowed (-EBUSY). This patch adds some logic to
allow a MAC change while powered by removing the interface, changing
the MAC, and adding it again. mac80211 will advertise support for
this feature so userspace can determine the best course of action e.g.
disallow address randomization on certain frequencies if not
supported.
There are certain limitations put on this which simplify the logic:
- No active connection
- No offchannel work, including scanning.

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.

2433647bc8d983a543e7d31b41ca2de1c7e2c198.
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

This switches the airtime scheduler in mac80211 to use a virtual
time-based scheduler instead of the round-robin scheduler used before.
This has a couple of advantages:
- No need to sync up the round-robin scheduler in firmware/hardware with
the round-robin airtime scheduler.
- If several stations are eligible for transmission we can schedule both
of them; no need to hard-block the scheduling rotation until the head
of the queue has used up its quantum.
- The check of whether a station is eligible for transmission becomes
simpler (in ieee80211_txq_may_transmit()).
The drawback is that scheduling becomes slightly more expensive, as we
need to maintain an rbtree of TXQs sorted by virtual time. This means
that ieee80211_register_airtime() becomes O(logN) in the number of
currently scheduled TXQs because it can change the order of the
scheduled stations. We mitigate this overhead by only resorting when a
station changes position in the tree, and hopefully N rarely grows too
big (it's only TXQs currently backlogged, not all associated stations),
so it shouldn't be too big of an issue.
To prevent divisions in the fast path, we maintain both station sums and
pre-computed reciprocals of the sums. This turns the fast-path operation
into a multiplication, with divisions only happening as the number of
active stations change (to re-compute the current sum of all active
station weights). To prevent this re-computation of the reciprocal from
happening too frequently, we use a time-based notion of station
activity, instead of updating the weight every time a station gets
scheduled or de-scheduled. As queues can oscillate between empty and
occupied quite frequently, this can significantly cut down on the number
of re-computations. It also has the added benefit of making the station
airtime calculation independent on whether the queue happened to have
drained at the time an airtime value was accounted.

The following race was possible:
1. The device driver requests HW restart.
2. A scan is requested from user space and is propagated
to the driver. During this flow HW_SCANNING flag is set.
3. The thread that handles the HW restart is scheduled,
and before starting the actual reconfiguration it
checks that HW_SCANNING is not set. The flow does so
without acquiring any lock, and thus the WARN fires.
Fix this by checking that HW_SCANNING is on only after RTNL is
acquired, i.e., user space scan request handling is no longer
in transit.

Don't bother keeping the link in that case. It is way
too complicated to keep the connection.

If any of the cipher schemes specified by the driver are invalid, bail
out and fail the registration rather than just warning. Otherwise, we
might later crash when we try to use the invalid cipher scheme, e.g.
if the hdr_len is (significantly) less than the pn_offs + pn_len, we'd
have an out-of-bounds access in RX validation.

Even if the first channel from sband channel list is invalid
or disabled mac80211 ends up choosing it as the default channel
for monitor interfaces, making them not usable.
Fix this by assigning the first available valid or enabled
channel instead.

Currently, _everything_ in cfg80211 holds the RTNL, and if you
have a slow USB device (or a few) you can get some bad lock
contention on that.
Fix that by re-adding a mutex to each wiphy/rdev as we had at
some point, so we have locking for the wireless_dev lists and
all the other things in there, and also so that drivers still
don't have to worry too much about it (they still won't get
parallel calls for a single device).
Then, we can restrict the RTNL to a few cases where we add or
remove interfaces and really need the added protection. Some
of the global list management still also uses the RTNL, since
we need to have it anyway for netdev management, but we only
hold the RTNL for very short periods of time here.

Now that all the mac80211-based drivers have removed WDS code
and in particular the ability to advertise such devices, also
remove all the code related to WDS here.
