wifi: mt76: mt7996: program a link again if the driver holds it
The firmware needs the driver to remove active links from the BSSINFO table
when it destroys the interface. A link therefore stays registered from its
first chanctx assignment until the interface goes away. If the driver holds
the link already, a second add does nothing.
mac80211 gives a non-AP MLD a new address each time it sets a link up. A link
that comes back after a failed attempt thus carries an address that the
hardware does not know, on a BSS that the driver never programs again. The
station then authenticates from an address that nothing answers. The failure
repeats until the driver tears the interface down for good.
Program the address and the BSS again. This is the pair that the initial add
sets up. For a station it does what mt7996_mcu_mld_link_oper() does for an AP.
