qca6174 wmi-tlv firmware defines a new wmi event
for host tx pausing (i.e. stop/wake tx queues).
Map these events to ath10k/mac80211 tx queue

This is important for multi-channel throughput

Number of channels is stored in a separate macro
in a header file and channel list is constructed
independently. The macro is used to define survey
array.
This fixes a recent regression introduced after
adding support for 144 channel. The regression
would lead to a warning and incomplete survey data
on channel 165:
chan info: invalid frequency 5825 (idx 38 out of bounds)
Also make sure to enforce the sizes and avoid this

NativeWifi tx mode expects QoS Data frames to be
delivered as Data frames with QoS part (e.g. tid)
being delievered out-of-band in fw tx command.
The QoS bit wasn't stripped before submitting to
firmware.
Stripping fixes two known problems:
* qca6174 IOT with some APs, e.g.
Cisco AIR-AP 1252 (which would crash after
ath10k association). Some ath9k APs would
crash as well.
* sniffing own tx frames via radiotap because,
e.g. wireshark was seeing QoS bit set but
since QoS Control was stripped in ath10k it
would parse beginning of LLC/SNAP

ability to distinguish QoS from non-QoS frames
when sniffing own tx via radiotap. On the other

Promiscuous mode is enabled when wlan interface is added to
bridge. ath10k creates a monitor mode when promiscuous mode
is enabled. When monitor vdev is running along with other
vdev(s) there is a huge number of interrupts generated
especially in noisy condition. Fix this by not enabling
promiscuous(monitor) mode when already a vdev is running.
As disabling promiscuous mode may have issues with 4-address
bridging in STA mode, the change is done specific to non-sta/ibss
mode types. This does not change the support of virtual interface of
type monitor along with other vdevs of any type.
This could fix management frame drop in fw due to unavailable
buffers because in monitor mode device receives everything seen
on the air. In noisy condition, disabling monitor mode helps assoc
go through without any issue.

802.11ad adds new a network type (PBSS) and changes the capability
field interpretation for the DMG (60G) band.
The same 2 bits that were interpreted as "ESS" and "IBSS" before are
re-used as a 2-bit field with 3 valid values (and 1 reserved). Valid
values are: "IBSS", "PBSS" (new) and "AP".
In order to get the BSS struct for the new PBSS networks, change the
cfg80211_get_bss() function to take a new enum ieee80211_bss_type
argument with the valid network types, as "capa_mask" and "capa_val"
no longer work correctly (the search must be band-aware now.)
The remaining bits in "capa_mask" and "capa_val" are used only for
privacy matching so replace those two with a privacy enum as well.
