wifi: cfg80211/mac80211: move puncturing into chandef

Aloka originally suggested that puncturing should be part of
the chandef, so that it's treated correctly. At the time, I
disagreed and it ended up not part of the chandef, but I've
now realized that this was wrong. Even for clients, the RX,
and perhaps more importantly, CCA configuration needs to take
puncturing into account.

Move puncturing into the chandef, and adjust all the code
accordingly. Also add a few tests for puncturing in chandef
compatibility checking.

wifi: cfg80211: remove wdev mutex

Since we're now protecting everything with the wiphy mutex
(and were really using it for almost everything before),
there's no longer any real reason to have a separate wdev
mutex. It may feel better, but really has no value.

wifi: cfg80211: do some rework towards MLO link APIs

In order to support multi-link operation with multiple links,
start adding some APIs. The notable addition here is to have
the link ID in a new nl80211 attribute, that will be used to
differentiate the links in many nl80211 operations.

So far, this patch adds the netlink NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINK_ID
attribute (as well as the NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINKS attribute)
and plugs it through the system in some places, checking the
validity etc. along with other infrastructure needed for it.

For now, I've decided to include only the over-the-air link
ID in the API. I know we discussed that we eventually need to
have to have other ways of identifying a link, but for local
AP mode and auth/assoc commands as well as set_key etc. we'll
use the OTA ID.

Also included in this patch is some refactoring of the data
structures in struct wireless_dev, splitting for the first
time the data into type dependent pieces, to make reasoning
about these things easier.

mwifiex: add mutex lock for call in mwifiex_dfs_chan_sw_work_queue

cfg80211_ch_switch_notify uses ASSERT_WDEV_LOCK to assert that
net_device->ieee80211_ptr->mtx (which is the same as priv->wdev.mtx)
is held during the function's execution.
mwifiex_dfs_chan_sw_work_queue is one of its callers, which does not
hold that lock, therefore violating the assertion.
Add a lock around the call.

Disclaimer:
I am currently working on a static analyser to detect missing locks.
This was a reported case. I manually verified the report by looking
at the code, so that I do not send wrong information or patches.
After concluding that this seems to be a true positive, I created
this patch.
However, as I do not in fact have this particular hardware,
I was unable to test it.

mwifiex: Use accessors routines for unaligned values

Synopsys' ARCompact architecture does not support loading from or
storing values to unaligned memory locations. We saw a series of
misaligned access exceptions on ARC. To work around this issue, we bulk
replaced le16_to_cpu and le32_to_cpu with get_unaligned_le16 and
get_unaligned_le32, respectively. We also added le16_unaligned_add_cpu
which is similar to le16_add_cpu but works with unaligned values.

mwifiex: fix radar detection issue

It's been observed that firmware sends RADAR detected event without
specifying bss_num/bss_type. Also, the event body is empty.
Currently the event is being ignored by driver.

This patch checks on which interface 11H is active, accordingly fills
bss_num/bss_type and handles the event. Condition
"if (le32_to_cpu(rdr_event->passed))" which always fails is also removed.
