During (TDMA-based) MCC (multi-channel concurrency), the below two
cases might not have a good behavior on channel usage.
* ROC (remain on channel)
* HW scan
So, we tend to separate them from MCC.
The two cases would expect to operate the channel to which they want.
However, during MCC, channels are scheduled by FW MCC state mechanism.
So, channels cannot be controlled explicitly. To avoid the two cases
from operating wrong channels with chance, we pause MCC (essentially
stop FW MCC) once the two cases are coming. And then, we proceed MCC
again (essentially restart FW MCC) once the two cases finish.

Under TDMA-based MCC (multi-channel concurrency), there are two roles,
reference and auxiliary. We arrange MCC timeline based on time domain
of reference role. Then, we calculate NoA start time according to MCC
timeline.
Besides, when MCC runs GO+STA mode, we plan an offset between GO time
domain and STA time domain to make their TBTTs have a time gap.
However, if GO is auxiliary role instead of reference role, NoA start
time is described by STA time domain instead of GO time domain. To fix
this, we apply the offset mentioned above to NoA start time to convert
time domain from STA to GO.

The subband index is a hardware value of relationship between primary
channel and bandwidth, and it is used by setting channel/bandwidth to
specify the primary channel.
Because this index is only needed when bandwidth >= 20 MHz, adjust
order of enumerator bandwidth to access offsets array easier. To prevent
misuse RTW89_CHANNEL_WIDTH_NUM as size, change it to
RTW89_CHANNEL_WIDTH_ORDINARY_NUM that will be the size of array. The
enumerator values of bandwidth (before ordinary number) will be also
used by upcoming TX power table built in firmware file, so add a comment
to remind keeping the order.

In MCC STA+GO mode, we calculate NoA information and fill it into the
beacon of P2P GO. Since NoA uses only 32 bits to describe time things,
we need to deal with renewal when TSF[63:32] is carried. We trigger FW
to notify that. Then, we can update NoA information for new time period
once we get notification from FW.

MCC fills duration limit of a role according to NoA description.
If P2P PS changes during MCC, we don't process P2P PS via normal
flow. Instead, we re-fill duration limit of the role for new NoA
description, and then we do MCC update.

In MCC STA+GC mode, the offset between TBTTs of remote AP and remote GO
might change. If the change is larger than tolerance, we should update
MCC after re-calculating parameters for new things. So, we track that in
rtw89_track_work() now. And, we add MCC update flow to tell FW either to
change durations of roles or to replace entire pattern according to how
MCC plans BT slot.

Each MCC (multi-channel concurrency) role maintains a bitmap of mac IDs.
The bitmap is supposed to contain the two points below.
* mac ID of itself
* mac ID(s) of STA(s) connecting to it
Under STA+GC mode, the bitmaps of both roles should not change. However,
under STA+GO mode, the bitmap of GO may change due to P2P clients which
connect/disconnect to/from it.
FW controls (TDMA-based) MCC things via mac IDs in bitmap of each role.
For example, mac IDs are required by FW when it wants to pause role1's
TX in role0 slot.
So, to sync between driver and FW, we update the new mac ID bitmap of GO
to FW once it's changed.

According to Wi-Fi/BT roles' settings, we fill corresponding H2Cs (host
to chip packets). Then, following MCC (multi-channel concurrency) pattern,
we send these H2Cs as planned. Eventually, the trigger H2Cs will be sent
to tell FW to really start/stop MCC.

After the previous works, we can now expand and display the MCC pattern
in more detail, as shown below.
|< MCC interval >|
|< duration ref >| (if mid bt) |< duration aux >| (if tail bt) |
|<tob ref >|< toa ref>| ... |<tob aux >|< toa aux>| ... |
V V
tbtt ref tbtt aux
|< beacon offset >|
(where tob means `time offset behind` and toa means `time offset ahead`)
There are two key points.
1. decide position of BT slot if MCC pattern needs to handle BT duration.
2. calculate all parameters related to tob and toa in MCC pattern.
For point (1), when BT duration needs to be handled, BT position will
rely on beacon offset, either middle or tail. For point (2), to ensure
durations of the Wi-Fi roles cover their beacons, we have to calculate
tob and toa for them according to their TBTT.
And, there are two strategies to calculate parameters, strict and loose.
In strict pattern, all parameters take HW time into account as limitation.
But, the strict calculation are not always successful. In loose pattern,
it only tries to give positive parameters to reference role and doesn't
care much about auxiliary role. If unfortunately auxiliary role gets
negative parameters in loose pattern, FW will be notified and then deal
with it. So, the loose calculation won't fail. In general, we always try
strict pattern cases before using a loose pattern.

Before calculating MCC pattern, we have to determine whether to handle BT
duration in it or not. The decision will depend on the channels that Wi-Fi
roles use. And, we have three cases shown below.
1. non-2GHz + non-2GHz
2. non-2GHz + 2GHz (different band)
3. 2GHz + 2GHz (dual 2GHz)
For case (1), we don't care BT duration in MCC pattern. For case (2), we
still don't care BT duration in MCC pattern. Instead, we try to satisfy it
by modifying duration of Wi-Fi role on non-2GHz channel. For case (3), we
need to modify Wi-Fi durations and also need to handle BT duration in MCC
pattern.

We determine the fundamental settings shown below.
|< MCC interval >|
|< duration ref >|< duration aux >|
| | | |
|< beacon offset >|
| |
V V
(tbtt ref) (tbtt aux)
(where `ref` (reference) and `aux` (auxiliary) mean the two MCC roles)
Based on MCC mode (GO+STA or GC+STA), we fill configurations of
MCC interval and beacon offset. And, we make sure each MCC role
have a basically required duration in the MCC interval.
The beacon offset mentioned above is a parameter for further MCC
pattern calculation. If MCC is in GC+STA mode, we will calculate
the real beacon offset through TSFs shown in beacons of both MCC
roles. Otherwise, we will use a default beacon offset, and make
GO sync STA's TSF timer with this offset.
MCC pattern calculation will break down each MCC role's duration
in more detail. We will implement it in the following.

We prepare to support TDMA-based MCC (multi-channel concurrency)
which allows two kinds of modes below.
* P2P GO + normal STA
* P2P GC + normal STA
Each mode has two vif and two chanctx. Then, each vif binds one
separate chanctx and becomes one MCC role. We name the two MCC
roles as follows.
* MCC role - reference (ref)
We calculate the baseline of our TDMA things accodring
to its info, e.g. TBTT. In normal case, it will be put
at the first slot of TDMA.
* MCC role - auxiliary (aux)
MCC state machine will be running in FW eventually, but before that,
we have to fill and calculate things that are needed by FW. We fill
the information of MCC role according to its vif and its chanctx.
Then, we calculate the start time for MCC.
Note that the parameters used in the calculation now is assigned by
default rules. The precise parameters for better MCC behavior will be
derived in the following.

We prepare to deal with multiple channels via new entity modes.
* MCC_PREPARE: Transitional mode before MCC
* MCC: Multi-Channel Concurrent mode
And, enum of sub-entity is extended for second channel context.
We add the entry flow of multi-channel handling and the core stuffs
for extended index of sub-entity. And, we now deal with the filling
of entity channels' info in entity recalc where we know the number
of active chanctx. However, the other detail coding of MCC start/stop
will be implemented in the following.
Besides, chanctx listener struct is pre-added in chip info. Each
component can add callback type in chanctx listener and configure
its callback function to react according to chanctx states. We know
at least RFK (RF calibration) and BTC (BT coexistence) will require
such callbacks.

Add support of remain on channel ops. Since channel context is
required to enable multi-channel concurrent(MCC) and the current
ROC in mac80211 don't support more than 1 channel context, add this
to let P2P and other protocols relying on this work as expected.
The off-channel duration and cancel timing is purely controlled by
upper layers.

First, introduce struct rtw89_sub_entity for chanctx related stuffs.
Second, add enum rtw89_sub_entity_idx to rtw89_vif for vif operation
to access its/right chanctx stuffs after future multi-channel support.
Besides, RTW89_SUB_ENTITY_0 is the default chanctx entry throughout
driver, i.e. it's used for things which may not have a target chanctx
yet. So, we need to ensure that RTW89_SUB_ENTITY_0 is always working.
If there is at least one alive chanctx, then one of them must take
RTW89_SUB_ENTITY_0. If no alive chanctx, RTW89_SUB_ENTITY_0 will be
filled by rtw89_config_default_chandef().

Some HW features are required if we hook chanctx ops to mac80211. With it,
mac80211 would expect the HW-supported variant ops exists on some behavior,
e.g. HW scan. But, HW features may depend on chip's FW or its development.
Besides, how many chanctx can be supported also depends on chip design.
We can neither decide whether to generally support chanctx ops nor how many
chanctx can be supported.
So, support_chanctx_num is added under chip info to deal with this by chip.
For now, all chip configure support_chanctx_num as 0. We haven't really
hook chanctx ops yet. So, chip can run without mac80211 chanctx as before.

Support mac80211 chanctx series ops. Still, currently support
single channel. Based on this premise, things should be similar
to before. So, we haven't dealt with relationship between vif
and chanctx in depth. Instead, we leave both ::assign_vif()

After supporting more than one channel, we need entity mode to decide
how to set current channel(s) on the sub-entities. This decision may
happen on set_channel() and rtw89_core_set_chip_txpwr().
For now, we support single one channel and use only first HW entry,
i.e. RTW89_SUB_ENTITY_0, RTW89_MAC_0, RTW89_PHY_0. Without something
unexpected, the entity mode should always be RTW89_ENT_MODE_SCC after
recalcated, where SCC means single channel concurrency. So, an assert
is added in set_channel() and rtw89_core_set_chip_txpwr().

While idle, we need a default chandef to set channel for things,
such as scan. Before support of mac80211 chanctx, mac80211 would
configure a default one on ieee80211_hw::conf::chandef. And we
just queried it whenever we did set channel. However, after support
of mac80211 chanctx, the flow won't work like before.
Besides, we don't now query chandef from ieee80211_hw::conf::chandef
either. So, similar to mac80211 without using chanctx, we configure
the default chandef with ieee80211_channel of index 0 in 2GHz.
Although we have not added the support of mac80211 chanctx here,
this configuration should be compatible before that. So, we commit
this ahead.

Originally, we didn't support mac80211 chanctx, so it's expected that
ieee80211_hw::conf::chandef would be filled by mac80211. And then, we
could just query it whenever we need the current chandef.
However, we are planing to support mac80211 chanctx. After that, the
above assumption would be broken. So, we adjust a bit ahead to reduce
future works about mac80211 chanctx.
After this, we don't query ieee80211_hw::conf::chandef directly, and
we add a map, entity_map, to HAL to indicate which chandef came from
stack. And it will later be used to recalcate entity mode.

Sometimes we need to write current rtw89_chan outside set_channel(),
e.g. during HW scan, we adjust it to align FW process through C2H.
However, we don't have full parameters to fill entire rtw89_chan.
And it will breakage if we update only part of current rtw89_chan.
That is what we don't want to see because most flows throughout
driver treat rtw89_chan as a whole.
So, we divide struct rtw89_chan to basic part and derived part. The
basic part contains the parameters which we are always able to know.
And the derived part will be calculated by the basic part. Then, a
central function, rtw89_chan_create(), is added to deal with this.

We are planning to support mac80211 chanctx. To reduce future works,
the driver architecture is adjusted first to isolate related things.
According to chip, our HW may have multiple sub-entities to support
multiple mac80211 chanctx. Struct rtw89_chan has been introduced for
things about channel/band/subband/... Now introduce struct rtw89_chan_rcd
to record difference after assigning new one of struct rtw89_chan.
We will implement and support chanctx with single channel first, i.e.
only use entry in RTW89_SUB_ENTITY_0, before handling dual channels.
Our hierarchy in planning will become as the following.
DEV
-> HAL
---> entity (manage status across sub-entities)
-----> sub-entity[*] (support mac80211 chanctx)
where each sub-entity contains one struct rtw89_chan.
