When there is a retransmission, we want to use the same number of RBs.
The RBs are allocated by groups (RBGs).
In some cases (like a cell with 25 PRBs), the last RBG contains less RBs.
So in case of a retransmission, if this last RBG was used before we need
to reuse it to have the same number of RBs. If not, we will use more RBs
for the retransmission than the previous transmission.
In an experiment with two UEs (quectel modules) it was seen that when a
retransmission happens with a different number of RBs then the UE is not
happy at all, leading to way more NACKs in the harq processes than should
happen (actually the first NACK was not a NACK at all, but the eNB did
interpret it as a NACK; so the next transmission should simply be discarded
by the UE that successfully received the first transmission; instead the UE
fails to decode the data and sends a NACK, a real one this time).
Maybe it's not the correct solution, but it improve things, there are
much less NACKs.
MR !1197 : dongzhanyi-zte-develop1
function nr_generate_dci_top and nr_generate_dci has the frame_parms parameter, whose type is the structure NR_DL_FRAME_PARMS.
The better way is to pass the parameter as a pointer.
MR !1176 : NR_phytest_bugfixes
This fixes a bug for configurations with less than 50 PRBs in phy-test mode.
MR !1142 : nr-dl-mimo-2layer
I have to revert this to be consistent with the OAI gNB.
But I think it is wrong to take the BWPSize from scc or scc_SIB, and the BWPStart from DLbwp[0].
MR !1188 : NR_gNB_initial_MIB_fix
This MR fixes a bug for which the gNB would send an empty MIB in the first frames of execution. This is because MIB is generated every 8 frames but the first MIB wouldn't be generated before frame 8 at the beginning of each run.

Avoid eNB exiting after gNB tries to reconnect over X2 for NSA
