from the users.

wifi: mac80211: remove unneeded scratch_len subtraction

We're always using "scratch + len - pos", so we don't need
to subtract here to calculate the remaining length. Remove
the unnecessary subtraction.

wifi: mac80211: defragment reconfiguration MLE when parsing

Using the scratch buffer (without advancing it) here in the
mlme.c code seems somewhat wrong, defragment the reconfig
multi-link element already when parsing. This might be a bit
more work in certain cases, but makes the whole thing more
regular.

wifi: mac80211: simplify multi-link element parsing

We shouldn't assign elems->ml_basic{,len} before defragmentation,
and we don't need elems->ml_reconf{,len} at all since we don't do
defragmentation. Clean that up a bit. This does require always
defragmention even when it may not be needed, but that's easier
to reason about.

wifi: mac80211: remove unnecessary ML element checks

Given the prior changes to ieee80211_mle_size_ok(), we
can now pass NULL to for_each_mle_subelement(), so no
longer need to check for that here explicitly.

wifi: mac80211: remove unnecessary ML element type check

At this point, since it's taken from elems->ml_basic which
is stored only if it's of type basic, we don't really need
to check again if it's basic.

wifi: mac80211: update scratch_pos after defrag

The scratch_pos update here was lost after defrag, so any
other uses of the scratch buffer might overwrite it.
