[PATCH v2] wifi: mt76: mt7996: unlink TWT flow if the MCU rejects the agreement

[Zhao Li <enderaoelyther@gmail.com>]

mt7996_mac_add_twt_setup() links a new flow into dev->twt_list before
asking the MCU to add the agreement, but exits without unlinking the flow
if the request fails. The flow-ID and table masks are only committed
after MCU success, so the still-linked flow is invisible to the
mask-gated teardown paths.

If the station retries the setup, the same slot is cleared and its
embedded list node reinitialized while it is still linked, corrupting
dev->twt_list. If the station disassociates instead, teardown skips the
flow and station storage can be freed while the node remains linked. A
later scheduling or debugfs twt_stats walk can then dereference the
freed flow, resulting in a use-after-free.

Unlink the flow when the MCU rejects the agreement. This restores the
list to its pre-request state while leaving the unchanged mask and
agreement accounting untouched.

Changes in v2:
- Rebase onto wireless/main commit 2812e64e1575.
- Send mt7996 as a standalone patch; mt7915 is fixed by commit
  16a04441eab0 ("wifi: mt76: mt7915: unlink TWT flow if the MCU rejects
  the agreement").
- Use list_del() to match the accepted mt7915 fix.
