Some data remains in the PHY of the gNB after UE removal by
upper layers. After some connection/deconnection/reconnection
the gNB will exit because there is no free space in PHY.
This commit adds some global variables shared by MAC and PHY.
The function mac_remove_nr_ue puts UEs to be removed in it
and the function rxtx removes what needs to be removed.
This is a hack. It will be removed at some point in time.
The real way to remove in the PHY should be to release
data after some time of inactivity in the PHY, which would
mean the UE has been removed in upper layers. Kind of
timer-based thing. There should be no communication between
PHY and MAC.
This commit introduces several enhancements in X2AP and RRC to deal
with ENDC. The main goal is to deal with UE's on/off and with various
errors.
The following work is included:
- DC prep and DC overall X2 timers
- X2 messages for UE release and DC timers' timeout
Open problems:
- what to do when the UE sends an scg Failure? This commit removes
the UE. And this removal may not be correctly done
- UE removal in the gNB's PHY layer (a next commit is coming,
but it is hackish and will need a rework)
also correction for Circular Dependency Protection on header files
also correction on the banner check

RLC has timers. We need to keep track of time. We chose to not use
realtime but 'processing time'. That is we send a tick to RLC for every
subframe when it is processed by the softmodem. Before this commit we
used to increase time in the function mac_rlc_status_ind which is called
for every subframe in the eNB, but not in the gNB (at least not in the
current gNB). So we need another way to keep track of time.
The function gNB_dlsch_ulsch_scheduler is called for every slot. It seems
to be the perfect candidate to send a tick to RLC for every subframe. We
take care of subcarrier spacing to send every subframe (one subframe is
always 1ms), not every slot (slot duration depends on subcarrier spacing).
It may not be the best solution. To be revised if needed.
Note: the UE has not been fixed. Some modification is needed for the UE
too, most probably.
Create a temporary rrc_eNB_ue_context_t when it can't be obtained from
current RRC state:
- if UE was not attached to current eNB
- when RRCConnectionReestablishmentRequest has a wrong encoding
- in all other cases when ue_context_p can't be obtained.

I had to remove the Msg2 transmission in phytest mode, which was present in branch 'benetel_integration'.
This caused following assertion:
Assertion (Foffset <= Ncb) failed!
In nr_rate_matching_ldpc() /home/sli/sudas-demonstrator/openair1/PHY/CODING/nr_rate_matching.c:411
Foffset 6492 > Ncb 924
Check the provided MCS index according to the specified table.
Some tables go up to MCS index 27, others up to MCS index 28.
If the MCS index exceeds the allowed limit, assume max. MCS.
