For HE-capable devices, we need to allocate more receive buffers as
there could be 256 frames aggregated into a single A-MPDU, and then
they might contain A-MSDUs as well. Until 22000 family, the devices
are able to put multiple frames into a single RB and the default RB
size is 4k, but starting from AX210 family this is no longer true.
On the other hand, those newer devices only use 2k receive buffers
(by default).
Modify the code and configuration to allocate an appropriate number
of RBs depending on the device capabilities:
* 4096 for AX210 HE devices, which use 2k buffers by default,
* 2048 for 22000 family devices which use 4k buffers by default,
* 512 for existing 9000 family devices, which doesn't really
change anything since that's the default before this patch,
* 512 also for AX210/22000 family devices that don't do HE.
Theoretically, for devices lower than AX210, we wouldn't have to
allocate that many RBs if the RB size was manually increased, but
to support that the code got more complex, and it didn't really
seem necessary as that's a use case for monitor mode only, where
hopefully the wasted memory isn't really much of a concern.
Note that AX210 devices actually support bigger than 12-bit VID,
which is required here as we want to allocate 4096 buffers plus
some for quick recycling, so adjust the code for that as well.

RB size can be configured by user to be greater than 4K.
That's needed for monitor to capture big AMSDUs.
The firmware now enables different RB sizes configuration
via context info.

Context information structure was added to 22000 devices for
firmware self init.
In the next generation of devices the context information
changes significantly, and the original context information
is divided roughly to three data structures: context information gen3,
prph information and prph scratch.
In addition, the init flow changes so the firmware is loaded
by the IML, and so we must allocate the IML on the DRAM and
give the ROM the IML's address before kicking the firmware's
self init.

Context information structure is going to be used in a000
devices for firmware self init.
The self init includes firmware self loading from DRAM by
ROM.
This means the TFH relevant firmware loading can be cleaned up.
The firmware loading includes the paging memory as well, so op
mode can stop initializing the paging and sending the DRAM_BLOCK_CMD.
Firmware is doing RFH, TFH and SCD configuration, while driver
only fills the required configurations and addresses in the
context information structure.
The only remaining access to RFH is the write pointer, which
is updated upon alive interrupt after FW configured the RFH.
