wifi: ath12k: fix firmware assert during channel switch for peer sta
Currently, during change in bandwidth for peer sta, host sends the new value of channel width via WMI_PEER_CHWIDTH set peer param command alone. This can lead to firmware assert in some scenario since before the command, firmware was having value of channel width and its corresponding phymode. After the command, host tries to set the new value of channel width alone which can become incompatible when compared with its phymode. For example: Bandwidth Upgrade ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After association, sta is in 40 MHz bandwidth in 11ax-HE40 phymode. After bandwidth upgrades, sta moves to 80 MHz but as per phymode, max bandwidth is still 40 MHz. Hence, firmware assert is seen. So in this case first phymode should be moved to 11ax-HE80 followed by bandwidth change. Bandwidth Downgrade ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Similarly, reverse of above is also possible when sta is in 40 MHz bandwidth in 11ax-HE40 phymode. Bandwidth should be changed to 20 MHz and if host sends phymode first then, phymode will become 11ax-HE20 and will be incompatible with bandwidth value and hence firmware assert will be seen. Hence, in this case first channel width should be set followed by phymode. Fix this issue by sending WMI set peer param command for phymode as well as bandwidth based on the type of bandwidth change i.e upgrade or downgrade.
