Subject: [PATCH 1/5] wifi: rtw89: release bit in rtw89_fw_h2c_del_pkt_offload()

From: Zong-Zhe Yang <[email protected]>

We have a pair of FW functions, rtw89_fw_h2c_add_pkt_offload() and
rtw89_fw_h2c_del_pkt_offload(). The rtw89_fw_h2c_add_pkt_offload()
acquires the bit itself, but the bit needs to be released by the
caller of rtw89_fw_h2c_del_pkt_offload(). This looks asymmetrical
and is not friendly to callers.

Second, if callers always releases the bits, it might make driver
unaligned to bitmap status of FW after some failures of calling
rtw89_fw_h2c_del_pkt_offload(). So, this commit move bit release
into rtw89_fw_h2c_del_pkt_offload().

In general, driver will call rtw89_fw_h2c_add_pkt_offload() and
rtw89_fw_h2c_del_pkt_offload(), and then, SW bitmap can align
with FW one. There is one exception when notify_fw is false.
It happens when driver detects FW problems and is going to
reset FW. Only in this case, driver needs to release bits
outside rtw89_fw_h2c_del_pkt_offload().
