Subject: [PATCH v3 1/5] wifi: rtl8xxxu: Add central frequency offset tracking

According to Realtek programmers, "to adjust oscillator to align
central frequency of connected AP. Then, it can yield better
performance." From commit fb8517f4fade ("rtw88: 8822c: add CFO
tracking").

The RTL8192CU and a version of RTL8723AU apparently don't have the
ability to adjust the oscillator, so this doesn't apply to them.

This also doesn't apply to the wifi + bluetooth combo chips (RTL8723AU
and RTL8723BU) because the CFO tracking should only be done when
bluetooth is disabled, and determining that looked complicated.

That leaves only the RTL8192EU and RTL8188FU chips. I tested this with
the latter.

v3:
- No change.

v2:
- Suggestions from Ping-Ke Shih:
- Use FIELD_PREP().
- Let packet_count wrap around.
- Use clamp().

Subject: [PATCH v3 3/5] wifi: rtl8xxxu: Recognise all possible chip cuts

The chip cut, also known as the chip version, is a letter from A (0)
to P (15). Recognise them all instead of printing "unknown" when it's
greater than E.

Signed-off-by: Bitterblue Smith <[email protected]>

v3:
- No change.

v2:
- Suggestion from Ping-Ke Shih:
- Don't use array of letters.

Subject: [PATCH v3 2/5] wifi: rtl8xxxu: Fix the CCK RSSI calculation

The CCK RSSI calculation is incorrect for the RTL8723BU, RTL8192EU,
and RTL8188FU. Add new functions for these chips with code copied from
their vendor drivers. Use the old code only for the RTL8723AU and
RTL8192CU.

I didn't notice any difference in the reported signal strength with my
RTL8188FU, but I didn't look very hard either.

v3:
- Feedback from Ping-Ke Shih:
- Use the name REG_AGC_RPT for register 0xa80.
- Use the name AGC_RPT_CCK for bit 7 of REG_AGC_RPT.

- No change.

According to commit 60d7900dcb98 ("wlcore: enable
IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORT_FAST_XMIT"), we can use this because all the chips
have hardware rate control.

This is one of the things mac80211 requires before it will handle MSDU
aggregation for us.
