When mac80211 switches between non-MLO and MLO it will recreate the
debugfs directories. This results in the add_if_debugfs handler being
called multiple times. As the convenience symlink is created in the mld
debugfs directory and not the vif, it will not be removed by mac80211
when this happens and still exists.
Add a check and only create the convenience symlink if we have not yet
done so.

iwl_mld_remove_link removes the link from both the FW and from the
driver.
If removing it from the FW failed, we assume that the FW is
dead anyway and remove it from the driver as well.
On the other hand, we still return an error value, indicating the caller
(i.e. mac80211) that the link couldn't be removed - while it was
actually removed.
Later, mac80211 might tell the driver again to remove that link,
and then the driver will warn that it doesn't exist.
Fix this by making iwl_mld_remove_link a void function.

Allow EMLSR if the bandwidths of the links are unequal if one of the
following conditions is true:
1. in low latency mode
2. bandwidth of the secondary link is greater than the bandwidth of the
primary
3. the primary link is active and is loaded enough to justify EMLSR

The channel load logic moves from the FW to the driver.
- Implement the logic: allow EMLSR only if the candidate primary link is
active and if its average channel load exceeds the threshold.
- Remove IWL_MLD_EMLSR_BLOCKED_FW. Instead, treat ESR_RECOMMEND_LEAVE in
the EMLSR_RECOMMENDATION notif as an EXIT reason.

Due to the iwl_mld_get_chandef_from_chanctx() logic, even after
the OMI handshake to reduce bandwidth the driver wouldn't apply
that to the PHY context, since it always uses the normal, not
the reduced, configuration on 6 GHz (not strictly always, but
OMI will only apply if the original bandwidth is > 80 MHz.) Fix
this by making that selection contingent on AP mode. Refactor
the code a bit to also make it clearer why the min_def isn't
used in that case (for FILS.)

Since iwlmld claims wiphys to be self-managed, it needs to
have a regdomain registered before the wiphy is registered
to avoid issues when trying to get the regdomain, e.g. via
"iw phy phy0 reg get".
Move the initialization early, on every FW start not just
when starting to really operate it. This also requires the
self-managed flag to be set early.

For each channel context, track the avarage channel load by others in the
driver specific phy data, to be used by EMLSR.
Due to FW limitations, this value is incorrect in EMLSR, so it is
shouldn't be used in EMLSR.
On EMLSR exit, clear it so the wrong value won't be used.

If the user disables power save of a vif that didn't have it enabled
(for example before association), mac80211 will not notify the driver
with BSS_CHANGED_PS. This will cause the driver to not update the
device-level power save to disabled.
Fix this by checking the vif's power save status upon authorization, and
stop considering the vif's power save status on disassociation.

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

I've listed the people who directly contributed
code, but many others from various teams have
contributed in other ways.
