Currently, the transmit rate, the receive rate and signal strength of
“iw dev xxx station dump” always show an invalid value.
This is because ath12k has no logic to handle this relevant information.
To solve this issue, ath12k parses the information passed by the firmware
and passes it to mac80211.
After that, "iw dev xxx station dump" show the correct value.
Such as:
Station 00:03:7f:12:03:03 (on wlo1)
inactive time: 600 ms
rx bytes: 4642228
rx packets: 23796
tx bytes: 933967
tx packets: 8761
tx retries: 66
tx failed: 0
beacon loss: 0
beacon rx: 8925
rx drop misc: 191
signal: -20 dBm
beacon signal avg: -18 dBm
tx bitrate: 1441.1 MBit/s 80MHz EHT-MCS 13 EHT-NSS 2 EHT-GI 0
tx duration: 0 us
rx bitrate: 1801.4 MBit/s 80MHz EHT-MCS 11 EHT-NSS 3 EHT-GI 0
rx duration: 0 us

FYI I'm not able to verify this series since it conflicts with the pending branch.
Patch failed at 0003 wifi: ath12k: report station mode signal strength
error: patch failed: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/core.h:607
error: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/core.h: patch does not apply
error: patch failed: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/mac.c:7561
error: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/mac.c: patch does not apply
Note that wireless-testing doesn't have the following series which conflicts:
wifi: ath12k: Add single wiphy support
Can you rebase against either ath-next or pending, both of which have that series?
