This patch series continues the effort to modularize data path structures
in ath12k, focusing on improving the organization of DP pdev handling and
preparing for future architecture-specific extensions.
Patch 1 refactors DP pdev handling by consolidating all DP-related fields
of a radio into struct ath12k_pdev_dp structure. An RCU-protected array of
these objects is introduced in ath12k_dp to facilitate dp_pdev lookup from
ath12k_dp.
Patch 2 encapsulates PPDU statistics within dp_pdev, as these stats are
associated with out-of-band data path operations. This reorganization
provides a cleaner structure by grouping both in-band (per-packet) fields
and out-of-band stats under the same ath12k_pdev_dp object.
These changes are part of a broader effort to establish a base framework
for next-generation driver development, allowing the data path to remain
flexible for future extensions.
