An AP/GO may perform the channel switch slightly before its stations.
This scenario may result in packet loss, since the transmission may start
before the client is actually on a new channel. In order to prevent
potential packet loss disable tx to all the stations when the channel
switch flow starts. Clear the disable_tx bit when a station is seen on a
target channel, or after IWL_MVM_CS_UNBLOCK_TX_TIMEOUT beacons on a new
channel. In addition call ieee80211_sta_block_awake in order to inform
mac80211 that the frames for this station should be buffered.

According to the spec, GO/AP should perform the channel switch just
before "beacon 0". However, since the exact timing isn't defined,
it may result in a sudden GO disappearance from the channel.
Prevent potential packet loss when performing the CS by scheduling
NoA time event and executing the channel switch flow when a notification
from fw is received.

Implement the switch_vif_chanctx operation with support for a
single-vif and SWAP mode. The REASSIGN mode and multi-vifs are not
supported yet.
This operation needs to implement 4 steps, namely unassign, remove,
add and assign the chanctx. In order to do this, split out these
operations into locked and non-locked parts, thus allowing us to call
them while locked.
Additionally, in order to allow us to restart the hardware when
something fails, add a boolean to the iwl_mvm_nic_restart() function
that tells whether the restart was triggered by a FW error or
something else.

It turns out that adding the update type argument was pointless as
quota update is never called from the add_interface() callback.
Therefore, IWL_MVM_QUOTA_UPDATE_TYPE_NEW isn't actually needed and
then only a "disabled_vif" argument is needed for the upcoming CSA
work.
Remove the whole enum iwl_mvm_quota_update_type and pass the right
arguments (always NULL for disabled vif right now) to the function

If BT is active, we need to refrain from using the shared
antenna. This logic is done in the firmware when we use the
link quality tables. But for management frames, the rate is
written in the Tx command by the driver.
Hence the driver needs to make sure not use the shared
antenna when BT is active for any frames that don't use
the rate scale table such as management frames or multicast.
