V3:
- Fixes an indexing bug in get_survey()

  We use an array to track snr and rssi. This array is organised so that
  the index value passed in get_survey() references the array directly.

  We also want to know the index into the frequency band tables which are
  divided into two parts for 2 GHz and 5 GHz.

  The previous patch modified the index to dereference the band instead of
  taking a copy of the index and modifying the copy to reference the band
  table.

  In other words the same index couldn't be used for both the array and the
  band index.

  Fixes by way of separating the two indices into idx and band_idx.

V2:
- Fixes typo "ret -= ENOMEM" => "ret = -ENOMEM" - kernel test bot
- Makes get_survey() static - kernel test bot
- Ignores riscv warnings since none apply to code in this patch - bod

V1:
This series enables get_survey() on wcn36xx. Tested with wcn3620 and
wcn3680b.

wcn36xx reports RSSI and SNR in the buffer descriptor of each delivered
frame wcn36xx -> host. Thus far we have only extracted RSSI but, extracting
the SNR lets us also report the noise-floor.

Adding in some background tracking of the current tuned channel lets us
flag which channel is currently in use when running "iw wlan0 survey dump"

For both wcn3620 and wcn3680b I have verified both the STA and AP's view of
RSSI and noise.

Example wcn3620:
  AP Asus RT-AX88U
    SSID: "linaro-test"
    noise: -78 dBm	Channel: 8
    BSSID: 04:D4:C4:AA:BB:CC
