Various documented examples on how to set up tx99 with ath9k rely
on setting up a regular monitor interface for setting the channel.
My previous patch "ath9k: fix tx99 with monitor mode interface" made
it possible to set it up this way again. However, it was removing support
for using an active monitor interface, which is required for controlling
the bitrate as well, since the bitrate is not passed down with a regular
monitor interface.
This patch partially reverts the previous one, but keeps support for using
a regular monitor interface to keep documented steps working in cases
where the bitrate does not matter

Tx99 is typically configured via a monitor mode interface, which does
not get added to the driver as a vif. Since the code currently expects
a configured virtual interface for tx99, enabling tx99 via debugfs fails.
Since the vif is not needed anyway, remove all checks for it.

Prefer the direct use of octal for permissions.
Done with checkpatch -f --types=SYMBOLIC_PERMS --fix-inplace
and some typing.
Miscellanea:
o Whitespace neatening around these conversions.

When the user sets count to zero the string buffer would remain
completely uninitialized which causes the kernel to parse its
own stack data, potentially leading to an info leak. In addition
to that, the string might be not terminated properly when the
user data does not contain a 0-terminator.

One scenario that could lead to UAF is two threads writing
simultaneously to the "tx99" debug file. One of them would
set the "start" value to true and follow to ath9k_tx99_init().
Inside the function it would set the sc->tx99_state to true
after allocating sc->tx99skb. Then, the other thread would
execute write_file_tx99() and call ath9k_tx99_deinit().
sc->tx99_state would be freed. After that, the first thread
would continue inside ath9k_tx99_init() and call
r = ath9k_tx99_send(sc, sc->tx99_skb, &txctl);
that would make use of the freed sc->tx99_skb memory.

On TX99 mode, instead of assuming interrupt mask non ATH9K_INT_GLOBAL,
let ath9k_hw_disable_interrupts proper set interrupt ref count.
This prevents some PCI PERR occurring specialy when setting 11b and n rates.

As there is current support for ar9002 tx99 mode, just allow
to init debugfs and enable tx99.

Instead of having ath_reset_internal() and ath_reset()
as two separate calls to perform a HW reset, have
one function. This makes sure that the behavior will
be the same at all callsites.

Currently, ath9k uses a global counter for all
frames that need to be assigned a sequence number.
QoS-data frames are handled properly since they
have a per-tid counter. But, beacons and other
management frames use the same counter even if
multiple interfaces or contexts are present.
Fix this issue by making the counter per-interface
and using it when mac80211 sets IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ.

Currently, the interface count is maintained globally,
but this causes problems in RX filter calculation.
Make the interface count a per-channel-context variable
to fix this.

Initialize first chain attempt counter to 1 in ath9k_build_tx99_skb().
Otherwise multi-retry chain is initialized to {idx,count} = {-1, 0} in
rate_control_fill_sta_table() and tx99 transmission rate is not configured in
rate_control_apply_mask() since first chain idx is set to -1

SC_OP_INVALID is zero so the test is always false. We're supposed to be

Use CONFIG_ATH9K_TX99 to properly enclose the tx99 code
and make sure that it is not compiled as part of the driver
when it is not selected. Move the tx99 code to a new file tx99.c
and also add ATH9K_DEBUGFS as a dependency in Kconfig.
This reduces the module size on platforms like OpenWrt where
ATH9K_DEBUGFS is selected, but TX99 might be disabled.
