For multi-link operation, this cannot work as the req-&gt;bss pointer
will be NULL, and we'll need to do more work on this to really add
tracing for the MLO case here. Drop the BSS elements for now as
they're not the most useful thing, and it's hard to size things
correctly for the MLO case (without adding a lot of code that's
also executed when tracing isn't enabled.)

<content type='text'>
Add some optional callbacks for link add/remove so that
drivers can react here. Initially, I thought it would be
sufficient to just create the link in start_ap etc., but
it turns out that's not so simple, since there are quite
a few callbacks that can be called: if they're erroneously
without start_ap, things might crash.

Thus it might be easier for drivers to allocate all the
necessary data structures immediately, to not have to
worry about it in each callback, since cfg80211 checks
that the link ID is valid (has been added.)

<title>wifi: cfg80211: do some rework towards MLO link APIs</title>

<id>7b0a0e3c3a88260b6fcb017e49f198463aa62ed1</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

spread over a period in time. This period, which is required to
determine the presence of radar signals, is defined as the Off-Channel
CAC Time..
Minimum Off-Channel CAC Time 6 minutes and Maximum Off-Channel CAC Time
4 hours..".

If a dedicated (off-channel) radar detection hardware (chain)
is available in the hardware/driver, allow this to be used by
calling the NL80211_CMD_RADAR_DETECT command with a new flag
attribute requesting off-channel radar detection is used.

Offchannel CAC (channel availability check) avoids the CAC
downtime when switching to a radar channel or when turning on
the AP.

Drivers advertise support for this using the new feature flag

Add a driver FILS crypto offload extended capability flag to indicate
that the driver running in AP mode is capable of handling encryption
and decryption of (Re)Association request and response frames.
Add a command to set FILS AAD data to driver.

This feature is supported on drivers running in AP mode only.
This extended capability is exchanged with hostapd during cfg80211
init. If the driver indicates this capability, then before sending the
Authentication response frame, hostapd sets FILS AAD data to the
driver. This allows the driver to decrypt (Re)Association Request
frame and encrypt (Re)Association Response frame. FILS Key derivation
will still be done in hostapd.
