[PATCH 0/2][SRU][OEM-5.17] Enable WiFi hotspot feature for MediaTek MT7921

[Chris Chiu]

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1979173

[Impact]
The wifi hotspot on systems with Mediatek MT7921 wifi chip doesn't work.

[Fix]
MediaTek already have the commit 116c69603b01 ("mt76: mt7921: Add AP mode support") upstream. But it's based on kernel 5.18. Mediatek also suggest to add patch https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/21366e8bc70573794b5f12372f2e55e9059d8457.1654691030.git.deren.wu@mediatek.com/ which is already accepted by upstream to fix bug in AP mode. Enable AP mode on specific kernel versions.

[Test]
Verified on the machines with MediaTek MT7921 chip.

[Where problems could occur]
The patches are to enable AP mode and and fix related issues on new VIF with AP capability, should have minimal impact to the origin behaviors.
