Public bug reported: [Impact] To support the Wi-Fi 7 features, we need to upgrade wpa_supplicant to 2.11, the latest upstream stable release.
[Test case] The upgrade version should not break legacy Wi-Fi functions, we should test on all Wi-Fi chips as much as possible. [Where problem could occur] This is a new stable release which is required by Wi-Fi 7. The risk is high that we might break existing Wi-Fi solutions. [Additional information] Upstream has released 2.11 on 2024-07-20 [1]. It provides more features which are required by Wi-Fi 7.
