The coex mechanism used to skip upon the freeze flag is raised.
That will cause the coex mechanism being skipped unexpectedly.
Coex only wanted to keep the TDMA table from being changed by
BT side.
So, check the freeze and reason, if the coex reason is coming
from BT info, skip it, to make sure the coex triggered by Wifi
itself can work.
This is required for the AP mode, while the control flow is
different with STA mode. When starting an AP mode, the AP mode
needs to start working immedaitely after leaving IPS, and the
freeze flag could be raised. If the coex info is skipped, then
the AP mode will not set the antenna owner, leads to TX stuck.

Add a set of logic with corresponding coexistence parameters to
handle the situation under BT inquiry/page.
We will set PSTDMA while WL-Busy + BT inquiry/page to separate
WL/BT slots. PSTDMA can protect WL data rate and BT performance.
If WL-Busy + BT inquiry/page and there was BT device paired,
We will set the mechanism to 4Slot PSTDMA.
In 4Slot PSTDMA, the paired devices can perform more smoothly
and prevent some issues trigger from insufficient data.
And to avoid A2DP glitch or disconnection, we will adjust ACL
data priority higher than inquiry/page.
In addition, we found sometimes BT inquiry/page still working
last for seconds after BT had notified inquiry/page finished.
It will lead to A2DP glitch cause of ACL data, inquiry/page
priority toggled. To fix the corner, we add a timer to remain
the inquiry/page status.
And we found WL busy/idle threshold is too sensitive,
it will keep switching in some weak network environment and
coexistence mechanism will switch between TDMA and PSTDMA.
The very frequently switching may destroyed not only the
handshake with AP, but BT performance. And it will trigger
some unexpected error.
To prevent the frequently switching, we add a timer to delay
the status change while WL busy switch to idle.

Coex mechanism used to make BT have higher priority and more time to
transfer data when BT inquiry-page, which leads to poor WiFi performance.
Should take WiFi traffic into consideration. If the WiFi is having heavy
traffic, use another parameter to make sure WiFi has more chance to TX/RX,
while guarantee the priority of BT for inquiry. If the WiFi isn't busy
(connected or not), set proper parameter to fix originals.

Without setting antenna control owner, the WiFi could be disconnected if
the BT has traffic. Because the antenna is switched to BT side for its
traffic, and the WiFi will have no chance to transfer data. Set control
owner to prevent WiFi disconnect issue.

In the current design, various chip functions and tables
are built into rtw88 core. That causes kernel to load its
functionalities even if a chip isn't currently used. We
plan to make each chip's functionalities a separate
kernel module to reduce rtw88 core. And kernel will be
able to load the necessary.
Before extracting chip functionalities, we export symbols
inside rtw88 core which will be used in chip modules.

Add a new entry "coex_info" in debugfs to dump coex's states for
us to debug on coex's issues.
The basic concept for co-existence (coex, usually for WiFi + BT)
is to decide a strategy based on the current status of WiFi and
BT. So, it means the WiFi driver requires to gather information
from BT side and choose a strategy (TDMA/table/HW settings).
Althrough we can easily check the current status of WiFi, e.g.,
from kernel log or just dump the hardware registers, it is still
very difficult for us to gather so many different types of WiFi
states (such as RFE config, antenna, channel/band, TRX, Power
save). Also we will need BT's information that is stored in
"struct rtw_coex". So it is necessary for us to have a debugfs
that can dump all of the WiFi/BT information required.
Note that to debug on coex related issues, we usually need a
longer period of time of coex_info dump every 2 seconds (for
example, 30 secs, so we should have 15 times of coex_info's
dump).

Driver could possibly be dead-locked while canceling works with
*_sync() with mutex lock held. Those cancel_delayed_work_sync()
functions will wait until the work is done, but if we hold the
lock, they will never acquire the lock.
To prevent this, simply release the lock and acquire again after
the works have been canceled. And to avoid the works being queued
again, check if the device is at RTW_FLAG_RUNNING state, otherwise
just return and do nothing.

With shallow buffer size, certain BT devices have active
A2DP flow control to fill buffer frequently. If the slot
is not at BT side, data can't be sent successfully to BT
devices, and will cause audio glitch.
To resolve this issue, this commit splits TUs into 4-slots
instead of 2-slot for all of the A2DP related coexistence
strategies. That makes BT have higher opportunity to fill
the A2DP buffer in time, and the audio quality could be
more stable and smooth.

The original design of LPS enter/leave routines allows
to control the LPS state by each interface. But the
hardware cannot actually handle it that way. This means
the hardware can only enter LPS once with an associated
port, so there is no need to keep tracking the state of
each vif.
Hence the logic of enter/leave LPS state can be simple,
just to check the state of the device's flag. And for
leaving LPS state, it will get the same port id to send
to inform the hardware.

These helper functions seems useless. And in some cases
we want to use test_and_[set/clear]_bit, these helpers
will make the code more complicated. So remove them.

Power amplifiers are not linear components, and require DPK to
reduce its nonlinearity. DPK is called Digital Pre-distortion
Calibration, can be used to compensate the output of power.
DPK tracking is in charge of tracking the thermal changes. And
it then shifts the power curve accordingly, which makes the
power output remains linear even if the PA works in different
temperature.
To perform DPK, the parameter table should also be updated.
And the table will be applied when device is powered on.
Then DPK will reference the values to calibrate.

Both RTL8822BE/RTL8822CE are WiFi + BT combo chips. Since
WiFi and BT use 2.4GHz to transmit, it is important to
make sure they run concurrently without interfering each
other. To achieve this, WiFi driver requires a mechanism
to collaborate with BT, whether they share the antenna(s)
or not.
The final decision made by the co-existence mechanism is
to choose a proper strategy, or called "tdma/table", and
inform either firmware or hardware of the strategy.
To choose a strategy, co-existence mechanism needs to
have enough information from WiFi and BT.
BT information is provided through firmware C2H.
The contents describe the current status of BT, such as
if BT is connected or is idle, or the profile that is
being used.
WiFi information can be provided by WiFi itself. The WiFi
driver will call various of "notify" functions each time
the state of WiFi changed, such as WiFi is going to switch
channel or is connected. Also WiFi driver can know if it
shares antenna with BT by reading efuse content. Antenna
configuration of the module will finally get a different
strategy.
Upon receiving any information from WiFi or BT, the WiFi
driver will run the co-existence mechanism immediately.
It will set the RF antenna configuration according to the
strategy through the TDMA H2C to firmware and a hardware
table. Based on the tdma/table, WiFi + BT should work with
each other, and having a better user experience.
