Jakub Kicinski a1fb841f9d wireless-next patches for v6.7

The first pull request for v6.7, with both stack and driver changes.
 We have a big change how locking is handled in cfg80211 and mac80211
 which removes several locks and hopefully simplifies the locking
 overall. In drivers rtw89 got MCC support and smaller features to
 other active drivers but nothing out of ordinary.
 
 This pull request got delayed because we were waiting for the wireless
 tree pull requested processed first and after that we merged wireless
 into wireless-next to avoid several conflicts in the stack.
 
 When pulling this there's one conflict in drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/os_dep/ioctl_cfg80211.c:
 
 <<<<<<< HEAD
 static int cfg80211_rtw_change_beacon(struct wiphy *wiphy,
 				      struct net_device *ndev,
 				      struct cfg80211_beacon_data *info)
 =======
 static int cfg80211_rtw_change_beacon(struct wiphy *wiphy, struct net_device *ndev,
 		struct cfg80211_ap_update *info)
 >>>>>>> origin/merge-wireless-2023-10-05
 
 Take the latter hunk which uses struct cfg80211_ap_update.
 
 Major changes:
 
 cfg80211
 
 * remove wdev mutex, use the wiphy mutex instead
 
 * annotate iftype_data pointer with sparse
 
 * first kunit tests, for element defrag
 
 * remove unused scan_width support
 
 mac80211
 
 * major locking rework, remove several locks like sta_mtx, key_mtx
   etc. and use the wiphy mutex instead
 
 * remove unused shifted rate support
 
 * support antenna control in frame injection (requires driver support)
 
 * convert RX_DROP_UNUSABLE to more detailed reason codes
 
 rtw89
 
 * TDMA-based multi-channel concurrency (MCC) support
 
 iwlwifi
 
 * support set_antenna() operation
 
 * support frame injection antenna control
 
 ath12k
 
 * WCN7850: enable 320 MHz channels in 6 GHz band
 
 * WCN7850: hardware rfkill support
 
 * WCN7850: enable IEEE80211_HW_SINGLE_SCAN_ON_ALL_BANDS to make scan faster
 
 ath11k
 
 * add chip id board name while searching board-2.bin
