The Realtek wifi 6/7 devices which support USB 3 are weird: when first
plugged in, they pretend to be USB 2. The driver needs to send some
commands to the device, which make it disappear and come back as a
USB 3 device.
Implement the required commands in rtw89.
Add a new function rtw89_usb_write32_quiet() to avoid the warnings
when writing to R_{AX,BE}_PAD_CTRL2. Even though the write succeeds,
usb_control_msg() returns -EPROTO, probably because the USB device
disappears immediately. This results in some confusing warnings in
the kernel log.
When a USB 3 device is plugged into a USB 2 port, rtw89 will try to
switch it to USB 3 mode only once. The device will disappear and come
back still in USB 2 mode, of course.
Tested with RTL8832AU, RTL8832BU, RTL8832CU, and RTL8912AU.

Some RTL8821CE cards can return frames with corrupted RX descriptor,
causing warnings and crashes if they are passed to the upper layers.
The PHY status size field is 4 bits wide, but in rtw88 its value should
only be 0 or 4. Checking this catches most of the corrupt frames.
If a PHY status is present, the PHY status size should not be 0.
The frame size should not be less than or equal to 4 and should not
exceed 11454.
The rate should not exceed 4SS MCS9.
Discard the frame if any of these checks fail.

When rtw_usb_write_port() fails to submit a USB Request Block (URB)
(e.g., due to device disconnect or ENOMEM), the completion callback is
never executed.
Currently, the driver ignores the return value of rtw_usb_write_port()
in rtw_usb_write_data() and rtw_usb_tx_agg_skb(). Because these
functions rely on the completion callback to free the socket buffers
(skbs) and the transaction control block (txcb), a submission failure
results in:
1. A memory leak of the allocated skb in rtw_usb_write_data().
2. A memory leak of the txcb structure and all aggregated skbs in
rtw_usb_tx_agg_skb().
Fix this by checking the return value of rtw_usb_write_port(). If it
fails, explicitly free the skb in rtw_usb_write_data(), and properly
purge the tx_ack_queue and free the txcb in rtw_usb_tx_agg_skb().
The issue was discovered in practice during device disconnect/reconnect
scenarios and memory pressure conditions. Tested by verifying normal TX
operation continues after the fix without regressions.

The driver expects the firmware to report TX status within 500ms.
However, a timeout can be triggered when the hardware performs
background scans while under TX load. During these scans, the firmware
stays off-channel for periods exceeding 500ms, delaying the delivery of
TX reports back to the driver.
When this occurs, the purge timer fires prematurely and drops the
tracking skbs from the queue. This results in the host stack
interpreting the missing status as packet loss, leading to TCP window
collapse. In testing with iperf3, this causes throughput to drop from
~90 Mbps to near-zero for approximately 2 seconds until the connection
recovers.
Increase RTW_TX_PROBE_TIMEOUT to 2500ms for RTL8723DU. This duration is
sufficient to accommodate off-channel dwell time during full background
scans, ensuring the purge timer only trips during genuine firmware
lockups and preventing unnecessary TCP retransmission cycles.

The previous commit aims to fix issue caused by malformed AMPDU frames.
But the drop logic fails to deal with the first AMPDU packet paired with
certain range of sequence number, and leads to unexpected packet drop.
It is more likely to encounter this failure when there are busy traffic
during rekey process and could lead to disconnection from the AP.
Fix this by adding a initial state judgement and only reset status
during pairwise rekey.

In WoWLAN mode, the firmware periodically sends Null packets to the AP
to keep the connection alive and prevent the AP from disconnecting the
client due to inactivity. However, it was observed that certain APs,
such as TP-Link Archer BE800, do not recognize Null packets as
valid activity and still drop the connection. Replacing Null packets
with ARP reply packets effectively resolves this compatibility issue
and maintains the connection.
Specifically, while the firmware typically handles standard ARP
offloads by dynamically modifying target IP/MAC fields, these
keep-alive ARP reply packets are pre-filled by the driver with the
DUT's own MAC and IP addresses for both sender and target fields.
In this case, the firmware transmits the packets as-is without
further modification. This approach ensures compatibility with APs
that require valid Layer 3 traffic for activity monitoring while
simplifying the firmware's processing logic during WoWLAN mode.

Originally, driver always transmits LTR (Latency Tolerance Reporting) to
pcie host, but it may cause pcie link down on some platforms because
LTR is not supported. As a result, driver will check the control
register of LTR setting to decide whether to enable LTR feature.
This applies to Wi-Fi 6 chips only. For Wi-Fi 7 chips, although the
driver still issues LTR, the hardware has its own internal logic
to determine whether to actually transmit it to pcie host.
