qcacld-3.0: Release Interface MAC addresses gracefully
Currently if any interface comes up on any of the MAC address
from the driver's default MAC address list and if this MAC is
changed dynamically, now if this interface is deleted, it will
not be able to release this MAC address as this newly
configured MAC doesn't match with any of the MAC from the
driver's default MAC addresses and driver is not able to
release this MAC cosidering it as invalid MAC, because of
this corresponding MAC interface mask bit is also not getting
reset and will never get reset, indicating corresponding MAC
is not available for use. If MAC addresses are changed for all
the interfaces which initially comes up on driver's default
MAC address and later these interfaces are deleted, driver
will not be able to add any of new interfaces even there is
no active interface currently in the driver.
To resolve this issue add one more MAC address list for dynamic
addresses cache all the dynamic address changes in this list,
while releasing the MAC on interface delete, release the MAC
from this dynamic list and reset the corresponding interface
mask bit.
