Hi Arend, all,

This series adds support for 6 GHz (Wi-Fi 6E) operation to brcmfmac.

It includes HE capability advertisement, 6 GHz chanspec and band
handling and PNO version 3 support. The PNO support is required to avoid
channel-number collisions with 2.4/5 GHz during scheduled scans.

It is adapted from our downstream work in the Asahi kernel by Daniel
Berlin, but reworked to make the code cleaner and more maintainable.

As I don't have a 6 GHz AP to test with, Yureka Lilian tested this
series on my behalf, on her Apple Silicon M3 Mac (BCM4388). Connection
and use of a 6 GHz network was successful, without regressions on 2.4 
GHz or 5 GHz operation.

Thank you for your time,
Michael
