Subject: [PATCH ath-next 1/2] wifi: ath12k: add support for Tx Power
insertion in RRM action frame
For certain action frames like the TPC Report IE in the spectrum management
TPC Report action frame, and in the Radio Measurement Link Measurement
Report action frame there is a requirement to fill in the current
and max Tx power of the device in the packet.
Add support to populate these fields in the relevant packets.
In software-encrypted cases such as PMF, skip insertion since the packets
are already encrypted and cannot be modified.
Tested-on: QCN9274 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.WBE.1.4.1-00199-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
