gcc-15: work around sequence-point warning
The C sequence points are complicated things, and gcc-15 has apparently
added a warning for the case where an object is both used and modified
multiple times within the same sequence point.
That's a great warning.
Or rather, it would be a great warning, except gcc-15 seems to not
really be very exact about it, and doesn't notice that the modification
are to two entirely different members of the same object: the array
counter and the array entries.
So that seems kind of silly.
That said, the code that gcc complains about is unnecessarily
complicated, so moving the array counter update into a separate
statement seems like the most straightforward fix for these warnings:
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mld/d3.c: In function ‘iwl_mld_set_netdetect_info’:
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mld/d3.c:1102:66: error: operation on ‘netdetect_info->n_matches’ may be undefined [-Werror=sequence-point]
1102 | netdetect_info->matches[netdetect_info->n_matches++] = match;
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mld/d3.c:1120:58: error: operation on ‘match->n_channels’ may be undefined [-Werror=sequence-point]
1120 | match->channels[match->n_channels++] =
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~
side note: the code at that second warning is actively buggy, and only
works on little-endian machines that don't do strict alignment checks.
The code casts an array of integers into an array of unsigned long in
order to use our bitmap iterators. That happens to work fine on any
sane architecture, but it's still wrong.
This does *not* fix that more serious problem. This only splits the two
assignments into two statements and fixes the compiler warning. I need
to get rid of the new warnings in order to be able to actually do any
build testing.

wifi: iwlwifi: mld: reduce scope for uninitialized variable
After resuming from D3, keeping the connection or disconnecting
isn't relevant for the case of netdetect.
Reduce the scope of the keep_connection indicator to wowlan only.

wifi: iwlwifi: add iwlmld sub-driver
iwlwifi is the driver of all Intel wifi devices since 2008. Since then, the hardware has changed a lot, but the firmware API has changed even more. The need to keep one driver that supports all those different APIs led us to introduce a new architecture circa 2012 which allowed us to keep the same interface to the hardware (DMAs, Tx queues, etc...) with a new layer to implement the mid-layer between mac80211 and the firmware. The first component is called the 'transport' and the latter is called 'operation_mode' a.k.a op_mode. In 2013 we took advantage of the new architecture to introduce iwlmvm which allowed us to implement the, then, new firmware API. This op_mode supports 7260 and up, those devices supports support at least VHT. Since then, wifi evolved and so did the firmware. It became much bigger and took a lot of functionality from the driver. It became increasingly hard to keep the same op_mode for the newest devices and we experienced frequent regressions on older devices. In order to avoid those regressions and keep the code maintainable, we decided it was about time to start a new op_mode. iwlmld is a new op_mode that supports BE200 or newer if the firmware being used is 97.ucode or newer. If the user has an older devices or BE200 with .96.ucode, iwlmvm will be loaded. Of course, this op_mode selection is seamless. All the features supported in iwlmvm are supported in iwlmld besides a few seldom used use cases: injection and Hotspot 2.0. Those are under work. A few points about the implementation: * iwlmld doesn't have any mutexes, it relies on the wiphy_lock * iwlmld is more "resource oriented": stations, links and interfaces are allocated and freed only after all the relevant flows are completed. * Firmware notifications' sizes are validated in a more structured way. We would love to see this new op_mode merged in 6.15. The firmware for this new driver (.97.ucode) is not yet publicly available but it'll be sent very soon. People eager to get an early version of this firmware can contact Emmanuel at: emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com I've listed the people who directly contributed code, but many others from various teams have contributed in other ways.
