[PATCH 12/50] nl80211: Support adding multi link stations
Andrei Otcheretianski

Wed Feb 15 15:08:26 PST 2023
Multi link stations are represented in the kernel using a single
station with multiple links and the first ADD_STA command also
creates the first link. Subsequent links should be added with
LINK_ADD commands.
Implement this logic and provide the required MLD information per
station/link.
