The standard defines the A-MSDU header length field differently for mesh
compared to other modes. Deal with this accordingly and work around broken
implementations (e.g. ath10k, ath11k).

This adds missing HE modes to mac80211_prepare_ht_modes.
Previously mesh without wpa_supplicant would be initialized with 802.11g
/NO-HT only, as this method did not parse channel bandwidth for HE
operation.

This is the follow up to the PCI support commit now providing support for
AHB variant as well, though currently only for ipq807x as that is only
OpenWrt supported SoC ath11k supports as well.
Currently, we are disabling coldboot calibration on ipq807x as it does not
work, there is a remoteproc bug that makes it come late out of reset so
disable coldboot until that is fixed.
Also, as ath11k is quite memory hungry, we are introducing a config option
to use the limits for 512MB of RAM, similar to what QCA does downstream but
in way simpler and cleaner way so that 512MB save some RAM.
512MB profile is also set as the default for now.

This is a temporary workaround for supporting multiple cards or AHB+PCI.
There is ongoing upstream work to properly support this based of
advertised FW features, but that is still ongoing.
This is only supported on QCN9074 cards due to FW limitation, so HW ID
is checked in order to prevent breaking QCA6390 and other popular cards.

Currently, ath11k will crash the crash if we try to bringup the monitor
mode interface.
Luckily, it has already been fixed upstream, so backport the patches
fixing it.

brcmsmac needs bcma. bcma is build into the kernel for the other bcm47xx
subtargets, but not for the legacy target because it only uses ssb. We
could build bcma as a module for bcm47xx_legacy, but none of these old
devices uses a wifi card supported by brcsmac.

ath11k is the upstream driver for Qualcomm 802.11ax radios, both for the
internal AHB and PCI based cards.
This commit does however only provide PCI support while AHB will follow
but its SoC specific so it will require an OpenWrt target first.
It differs a bit from ath10k as it requires stuff like QRTR, MHI and QMI
helpers.
PCI variant requires qrtr-mhi and mhi-bus which backports do provide,
however we are dropping those in a patch as they will conflict with
support for the AHB variant as that one requires qrtr-smd which in turn
requires RPMSG and GLINK and its not feasable to provide those in
backports as they are really SoC specific.
QRTR and MHI in kernel 5.10 are not usable and backporting the changes
is not easy as they have changed drastically from 5.10 to 5.15 ath11k will
only be available on targets that use kernel 5.15.

hostapd's compile time option CONFIG_IEEE80211N was removed almost 3 years
ago, 80.211n/HT is always included since then.
Noticed because `hostapd -v11n` confusingly returned an error.

Get rid of drivers that are either limited to 802.11b/g or don't even support
cfg80211/mac80211. Most of these are either limited to boards that we don't even
support anymore because of firmware size, or were only used for custom hacks by
a really small number of users in the past.
Let's get rid of those to reduce the maintenance effort and the number of useless
packages

CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH isn't defined for this package, rendering the patch
useless. Match protecting the access of sta_info.mesh with the very same
define declaring it.
