From: Sean Wang <sean.wang at kernel.org>

Hi nbd,

We've worked diligently to prepare the driver for the upcoming MLO-enabled
firmware integration in the 6.11 kernel.

We are posting v2 to further enhance and refine the v1 patchset. We hope these
improvements can be included in the mt76 pull request for the merge window.

These patches are rebased on commit "74861fbe2d25" (wifi: mt76: mt7925: simplify
mt7925_mcu_sta_cmd logic by removing fw_offload) in the mt76 tree. If these
changes look okay to you, could you please update them in your tree?

Thank you very much for your assistance.

The details in v2:

Address missing parts and improve driver for the firmware for multilink support

    2. Simplify the logic to get mconf
    3. Get phy idx per link
    4. Also update assoc logic to include the above (1), (2), and (3)

The details in v1:

This patchset introduces comprehensive support for MLO (Multi-Link-
Operation) mode on the MT7925 Wi-Fi driver. It includes driver
modifications to ensure seamless operation specifically with MLO-enabled
firmware environments. The patches included are:

1) Enable the link handling in the existing neccessary functions
   in the driver for MLO mode.
2) Add MCU TLV handling tailored for the MLO-enabled firmware.
3) Implement .change_vif_links and .change_sta_links callbacks for MLO
   mode.
4) Register the MLO capability with mac80211 when the driver is operating
   with the MLO-enabled firmware.

These changes maintain compatibility with non-MLO mode and the older
firmware versions.
