Forgot to wrote that I tested changes only for mt76x0 (sill waiting for
ordered mt76x2 HW) but common code is basically a copy of mt76x2 code
(if mt76x0 implementation differ, the one form mt76x2 was used). However
there are some changes that affect mt76x2 as well. Hopefully I did not break
anything there, but I can not be sure for now.
