Lorenzo BianconiandFelix Fietkau 934f647104 wifi: mt76: mt7996: fix reading zeroed info->control.flags after mt76_tx_status_skb_add()
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.
