A power-save station whose buffered frames cannot be delivered (e.g. it
stopped responding) consumes no airtime, so its airtime DRR deficit never
goes negative. Returning its txq via ieee80211_return_txq() then keeps it
pinned at the head of the airtime scheduler's active_txqs list. Since
mt7996 uses a single ieee80211_hw for all bands, that list is shared
device-wide, and the schedule_round guard in ieee80211_next_txq() ends the
scheduling pass at the stuck station, starving every other station on all
bands until it is removed by inactivity timeout.
Only return the txq while it makes progress or the shared queue is
stopped. Otherwise leave it unscheduled and rely on the existing tx
completion handler to re-arm it once a buffered frame completes, matching
the non-AQL throttle path.

mt76_register_debugfs_fops() returns the dentry from
debugfs_create_dir(), which yields an error pointer on failure
(notably ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) when CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=n), never NULL. Per
commit ff9fb72bc077 ("debugfs: return error values, not NULL"),
callers do not need to check the return value.
Drop the dead !dir checks in mt7615/mt7915/mt7921/mt7925/mt7996
_init_debugfs(). Converting them to IS_ERR() instead would have
exposed a probe abort on CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=n, since each
*_init_debugfs() caller propagates the helper's return value.
This patch supersedes an earlier proposal that converted the checks
to IS_ERR().

mt76_tx_status_skb_add() zeroes the mt76_tx_cb struct stored at
info->status.status_driver_data via memset(). Since info->control and
info->status are members of the same union in ieee80211_tx_info,
this overwrites info->control.flags.
In mt7996_tx_prepare_skb(), mt76_tx_status_skb_add() is called before
mt7996_mac_write_txwi(), which re-reads info->control.flags to extract
IEEE80211_TX_CTRL_MLO_LINK. Because the field has been zeroed, the
link_id always resolves to 0 for frames using global_wcid, leading to
incorrect TXWI configuration.
Fix this by passing link_id as an explicit parameter to
mt7996_mac_write_txwi(). In mt7996_tx_prepare_skb(), the link_id is
already extracted from info->control.flags before the destructive
mt76_tx_status_skb_add() call. For the beacon and inband discovery
callers in mcu.c, use link_conf->link_id directly.
