It makes more sense to use ieee80211_tx_info::driver_data instead of
ieee80211_tx_info::status.status_driver_data which is used to share
TX status reporting to mac80211, because actually driver calls
ieee80211_tx_info_clear_status() to clear the content including
status_driver_data in rtw89_pci_tx_status() before filling the status.
Review and point out the scope (by comments) driver can safely use
ieee80211_tx_info::driver_data between rtw89_hci_tx_write() and
calling ieee80211_tx_info_clear_status().
Add BUILD_BUG_ON() to assert that driver struct size is smaller than
the size defined by mac80211.

Originally, to directly align with the chanctx design, getter of managed
chanctx returned a default channel when a link doesn't own a chanctx yet.
Then, callers could simply use the return without trivial NULL checking.
But in MLD HW settings of next chip, there will be a special case that a
caller needs to check if a link has owned chanctx or not to determine
CCK hardware circuit working on HW-x. So, add a func *_or_null for this
first.

The newly designed group BD address is to use the same starting DMA address
with offset as below picture:
Original DMA memory Group BD address

Compare (*1) and (*2), for original design, each DMA channel has
individual DMA address, so it is not necessary to allocate continual
DMA address across channels. For group BD address, only two DMA address
are set, and each channel set the offset (*3) from base address.
The element number and offset of a channel are encoded rather than a
raw number, so add a function to translate numbers into hardware format.

In ideal scenario, AP's beacon should transmit at the Target Beacon
Transmission Time (TBTT). However, in practice, beacon may be slightly
off-schedule. This beacon "drift" prevents the firmware from receiving
beacon at the expected TBTT, leading to connection disruptions.
To address this, we introduce beacon tracking mechanism to enhance overall
connection stability. This mechanism executes the following steps in each
cycle (2 seconds): 1) Based on the last 32 received beacons, compute the
minimum TBTT offset to use for the next cycle 2) Using the same 32 beacons,
calculate the drift of each. A histogram is plotted, and outliers are
identified using a boxplot. 3) According to the statistical results from
the second step, a maximum receive window size (beacon timeout) is selected
to cover approximately 80% of the beacons and applied to the next cycle.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Wrap datapath globals into net_aligned_data, to avoid false sharing
- Preserve MSG_ZEROCOPY in forwarding (e.g. out of a container)
- Add SO_INQ and SCM_INQ support to AF_UNIX
- Add SIOCINQ support to AF_VSOCK
- Add TCP_MAXSEG sockopt to MPTCP
- Add IPv6 force_forwarding sysctl to enable forwarding per interface
- Make TCP validation of whether packet fully fits in the receive
window and the rcv_buf more strict. With increased use of HW
aggregation a single "packet" can be multiple 100s of kB
- Add MSG_MORE flag to optimize large TCP transmissions via sockmap,
improves latency up to 33% for sockmap users
- Convert TCP send queue handling from tasklet to BH workque
- Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly
once
- Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code
- Support enabling kernel threads for NAPI processing on per-NAPI
instance basis rather than a whole device. Fully stop the kernel
NAPI thread when threaded NAPI gets disabled. Previously thread
would stick around until ifdown due to tricky synchronization
- Allow multicast routing to take effect on locally-generated packets
- Add output interface argument for End.X in segment routing
- MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling
- Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink
- Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid"), which cedes refresh
responsibilities to userspace. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing
where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced
across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed
- Support NUD_PERMANENT for proxy neighbor entries
- Add a new queuing discipline for IETF RFC9332 DualQ Coupled AQM
- Add sequence numbers to netconsole messages. Unregister
netconsole's console when all net targets are removed. Code
refactoring. Add a number of selftests
- Align IPSec inbound SA lookup to RFC 4301. Only SPI and protocol
should be used for an inbound SA lookup
- Support inspecting ref_tracker state via DebugFS
- Don't force bonding advertisement frames tx to ~333 ms boundaries.
Add broadcast_neighbor option to send ARP/ND on all bonded links
- Allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command in openvswitch
- Remove DCCP support from Netfilter's conntrack
- Disallow multiple packet duplications in the queuing layer
- Prevent use of deprecated iptables code on PREEMPT_RT
Driver API:
- Support RSS and hashing configuration over ethtool Netlink
- Add dedicated ethtool callbacks for getting and setting hashing
fields

- optimize context memory usage for matchers
- expose serial numbers in devlink info
- support PCIe congestion metrics
- Meta (fbnic):
- add 25G, 50G, and 100G link modes to phylink
- support dumping FW logs
- Marvell/Cavium:
- support for CN20K generation of the Octeon chips

* Move sysctls out of the kern_table array
This is the final move of ctl_tables into their respective subsystems. Only 5
(out of the original 50) will remain in kernel/sysctl.c file; these handle
either sysctl or common arch variables.
By decentralizing sysctl registrations, subsystem maintainers regain control
over their sysctl interfaces, improving maintainability and reducing the
likelihood of merge conflicts.
* docs: Remove false positives from check-sysctl-docs
Stopped falsely identifying sysctls as undocumented or unimplemented in the
check-sysctl-docs script. This script can now be used to automatically
identify if documentation is missing.
* Testing
All these have been in linux-next since rc3, giving them a solid 3 to 4 weeks
worth of testing. Additionally, sysctl selftests and kunit were also run
locally on my x86_64

- Standardize on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by GCC
and Clang compilers and replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__
in both uapi and non-uapi headers
- Explicitly include <linux/export.h> in architecture and driver
files which contain an EXPORT_SYMBOL() and remove the include
from the files which do not contain the EXPORT_SYMBOL()
- Use the full title of "z/Architecture Principles of Operation"
manual and the name of a section where facility bits are listed
- Use -D__DISABLE_EXPORTS for files in arch/s390/boot to avoid
unnecessary slowing down of the build and confusing external
kABI tools that process symtypes data
- Print additional unrecoverable machine check information to make
the root cause analysis easier
- Move cmpxchg_user_key() handling to uaccess library code, since
the generated code is large anyway and there is no benefit if it
is inlined
- Fix a problem when cmpxchg_user_key() is executing a code with a
non-default key: if a system is IPL-ed with "LOAD NORMAL", and
the previous system used storage keys where the fetch-protection
bit was set for some pages, and the cmpxchg_user_key() is located
within such page, a protection exception happens
- Either the external call or emergency signal order is used to send
an IPI to a remote CPU. Use the external order only, since it is at
least as good and sometimes even better, than the emergency signal
- In case of an early crash the early program check handler prints
more or less random value of the last breaking event address, since
it is not initialized properly. Copy the last breaking event address
from the lowcore to pt_regs to address this
- During STP synchronization check udelay() can not be used, since the
first CPU modifies tod_clock_base and get_tod_clock_monotonic() might
return a non-monotonic time. Instead, busy-loop on other CPUs, while
the the first CPU actually handles the synchronization operation
- When debugging the early kernel boot using QEMU with the -S flag and
GDB attached, skip the decompressor and start directly in kernel
- Rename PAI Crypto event 4210 according to z16 and z17 "z/Architecture
Principles of Operation" manual
- Remove the in-kernel time steering support in favour of the new s390
PTP driver, which allows the kernel clock steered more precisely
- Remove a possible false-positive warning in pte_free_defer(), which
could be triggered in a valid case KVM guest process is initializing
