An rtw88 AP cannot change its channel: the driver does not announce
channel switch support, so hostapd's CHAN_SWITCH is refused and the
only way is to tear the AP down. The series fixes the beacon download
the reserved page build makes twice, makes the TIM beacon update a
wiphy work, then implements channel_switch_beacon on top of the
firmware's beacon page.
v5:
- 2/3 is new: update_beacon_work becomes a wiphy work, so that it can
look at the channel switch state under the wiphy lock; it checks
RTW_FLAG_RUNNING instead of being cancelled in rtw_core_stop(), which
runs without the wiphy lock on the IPS path (Ping-Ke)
- 3/3: rtw_fw_csa_active/start/stop() assert the wiphy lock (Ping-Ke)
- 3/3: hw_scan() takes the mutex with guard() (Ping-Ke)
- 3/3: a comment on the association download names the STA+AP
combination it skips the download for (Ping-Ke)
- the whole set ran on a PROVE_LOCKING kernel without a lockdep report:
switches with counts 1 to 100, hostapd stopped and restarted during
a countdown, scans during a countdown, a firmware crash during a
countdown, three stop/idle/start cycles, IBSS, 50 switches with a
station attached, and on the RTL8822CU a station interface
associating while the AP interface counted down
v4:
- 1/2: Reviewed-by from Luka
- 2/2: the countdown work is back in the device, initialised once,
with csa_vif naming the interface; no interface iteration and no
lookup through the reserved page any more (Ping-Ke)
- 2/2: the countdown is cancelled before a firmware recovery restarts
the hardware, instead of guarding the work with flags (Ping-Ke)
- 2/2: the page download on association skips a running countdown,
like the TIM update and the PG backup (Luka)
- 2/2: the scan refusal comes before the scan offload test, so that
firmware without scan offload does not fall back to a software scan
during a countdown (Luka)
v3:
- 1/2: the beacon out-pointer is initialised in the caller (Luka)
- 2/2: the countdown work lives in the interface, remove_interface
cancels it unconditionally, the queue wrapper and the comments are
gone (Ping-Ke)
- 2/2: the TIM update and the PG backup on set_key skip the page
download while a switch is announced; every beacon fetch advances
the countdown (Luka)
- 2/2: the commit message names the refused hardware scan (Ping-Ke)
v2:
- 2/2: a hardware scan is refused while a switch is announced
- the rtw89 mention is gone from the cover

rtw_fw_download_rsvd_page() downloads the beacon twice: once as part of
the reserved page and once more on its own, so that the firmware ends up
with a TX descriptor that describes the beacon rather than the whole
page. The second download fetched a new beacon from mac80211 instead of
downloading the one the page already holds.
Besides the extra work, every beacon fetch advances the DTIM count and,
while a channel switch is announced, the CSA countdown; doing it twice
per update lets a countdown that starts at 2 reach 0, which mac80211
warns about. Hand the beacon skb out of the page build and download
that. The hw scan, which downloads the beacon without a page build,
keeps fetching its own.

set_tim() queues update_beacon_work to rebuild the reserved page with
the new TIM. Make it a wiphy work so that it runs under the wiphy lock
like the other beacon downloads and can look at mac80211 state; the
next patch needs that to tell whether a channel switch is being
announced.
rtw_core_stop() runs without the wiphy lock on the IPS path and can no
longer cancel the work, so the work checks RTW_FLAG_RUNNING under the
driver mutex instead, as the watchdog and the C2H work do.

hostapd's CHAN_SWITCH is refused because the driver does not announce
channel switch support, so an AP on rtw88 can only change its channel
by being torn down and started again.
Declare WIPHY_FLAG_HAS_CHANNEL_SWITCH and implement
ieee80211_ops::channel_switch_beacon: the firmware repeats the beacon
held in the first reserved page, so while a switch is announced the
page is downloaded again every beacon interval to renew the countdown,
and ieee80211_csa_finish() is called once it completes. IBSS, which
the flag enables too, shares the page and the work.
The work is a wiphy delayed work of the device and csa_vif names the
interface it counts down for; the wiphy lock serializes the work with
the mac80211 state it reads and the driver mutex with the page build.
The countdown is cancelled when the AP stops, when the interface goes
away, on WoWLAN suspend and before a firmware recovery restarts the
hardware. The other page downloads that can run
during a countdown, the TIM update, the PG backup on set_key and the
one on association, are skipped then, since every beacon fetch
advances the countdown; the next countdown download, at most one
beacon interval later, carries their changes. A scan is refused while
a switch is announced, before the fallback to a software scan: it
would take the AP off the channel its stations count down to.

Changes in v5:
- rtw_fw_csa_active/start/stop() assert the wiphy lock
- hw_scan() takes the mutex with guard()
- the ASSOC path says why it skips the download: the STA+AP combination
Changes in v4:
- the work and csa_vif live in rtw_dev; no lookup through the reserved page
- the countdown is stopped before a firmware recovery restarts the hardware
- a scan is refused while a switch is announced
- one beacon fetch per interval during the countdown
