Lingbo Kong b4ebb58cb9 wifi: cfg80211: Remove the Medium Synchronization Delay validity check
Currently, when the driver attempts to connect to an AP MLD with multiple
APs, the cfg80211_mlme_check_mlo_compat() function requires the Medium
Synchronization Delay values from different APs of the same AP MLD to be
equal, which may result in connection failures.

This is because when the driver receives a multi-link probe response from
an AP MLD with multiple APs, cfg80211 updates the Elements for each AP
based on the multi-link probe response. If the Medium Synchronization Delay
is set in the multi-link probe response, the Elements for each AP belonging
to the same AP MLD will have the Medium Synchronization Delay set
simultaneously. If non-multi-link probe responses are received from
different APs of the same MLD AP, cfg80211 will still update the Elements
based on the non-multi-link probe response. Since the non-multi-link probe
response does not set the Medium Synchronization Delay
(IEEE 802.11be-2024-35.3.4.4), if the Elements from a non-multi-link probe
response overwrite those from a multi-link probe response that has set the
Medium Synchronization Delay, the Medium Synchronization Delay values for
APs belonging to the same AP MLD will not be equal. This discrepancy causes
the cfg80211_mlme_check_mlo_compat() function to fail, leading to
connection failures. Commit ccb964b4ab
("wifi: cfg80211: validate MLO connections better") did not take this into
account.

To address this issue, remove this validity check.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
