Remove most of m64 type usage
MMX instructions were first SIMD version, the registers management is complex
(_mm_empty()) so, it is better to remove it now and use more recent instructions
anyway, gcc/clang should replace it automatically as long as we enable sse2,
that should always be the case but for code understanding and for ARM porting
for example, it is better to explicitly remove it
use ML receiver for 64 QAM UL-MIMO
Change condition on MMSE/ML selection to include 64QAM for ML UL-MIMO receiver.
Only 256QAM will now use MMSE UL-MIMO receiver.
fix(nrLDPC_coding_t2): Miscellaneous fixes related to T2
1. HARQ combined offset:
The offset provided for each code block in the HARQ combined input and output
buffer shall not be above 512. A modulus was performed on the offset of the TB
in the buffer to avoid this situation. But the offset of the code block was
added afterward so that the total offset was sometimes going above 512.This
commit performs the modulus after adding the code block offset. Usually this
issue was triggering a segfault after less than 2 minutes of an iperf test on
some setup using T2. The same iperf test was successfully performed during 10
minutes on the same setup with this change.
2. Properly stop LDPC coding in gNB and UE:
LDPC coding was yet not properly stopped by using free_nrLDPC_coding_interface
in gNB and UE. This was not causing major issue until now. It was especially not
causing any issue with T2 LDPC coding using the PF. But using T2 VFs, if the
coding library is not properly stopped then the VF cannot be used anymore unless
the admin app is restarted. So this MR adds the missing free_nrLDPC_coding_interface.

Fix calculation of RSSI in pucch_rx.c
Fix two issues with RSSI calculation in PUCCH:
- RSSI was calculated using partial sum instead of average of squared samples.
- There was a missing parentheses pair which causes the RSSI value to underflow.
The proper way to calculate power in dBFS is
let signal_energy = average of squared samples of received signal over resource elements, antennas and symbols under measurement
then:
rssi[dBFS] = -10log10(max_sample^2 / signal_energy),
or (to avoid division):
rssi[dBFS] = -(10log10(max_sample^2) - 10log10(signal_energy))
Delay compensation for PUCCH2
- Implementation of delay compensation for PUCCH2, which minimizes for
exampe logs "reported RSRP index XXX invalid"
- Adding a test to the CI to perform the delay compensation in PUCCH2
- Refactor code to use c16_t data type in PUCCH decoder
Remove spinlock from threadpool task return
The idea to use atomic aligned to cache line for counting finished jobs
is reused, but instead of polling a semaphore was added.

Introduce ITTI queue in RRC-to-MAC direction
resolve ue rcc to mac race conditions by a itti queue, but it doesn't
resolve the problem of exact slot we should apply the new cell
configurtion
Move UL_INFO structure allocation local to a rx slot processing
UL_INFO is allocated a gNB, so require mutex and obscur information
passing function to function. Instead, make a local UL_INFO per slot,
removing the mutex and making the code easier to understand.
Use UL_INFO on the stack, to simplify the code. move in the same struct
the associated rach, pdu, crc, srs arrays that where pointed from
directly in gNB structure Keep in nfapi the existing logic that make
malloc for theses rach, pdu, crc, srs array lists
Pass only relevant fields, where appropriate.

nrLDPC_coding: Fix naming, comments, superfluous variables and documentation typos in coding library interfaces
This MR is clarifying the interfaces to the LDPC coding libraries. It
aims to improve the readability of the interfaces and compliance of
naming with specification 38.212.
NR UE fix DCI mask size
Previous maximum size was 15 but in practice it could be at least up to
18. Also moved assertion on non-contiguous type0 DLSCH allocation to L1
(to remove blocking point for L2 implementation).
Improvements for PUSCH per symbol processing
- Improved the assert in task_ans.c
- Fixed and issue with PUSCH per-symbol processing that could cause an
issue in case num_pusch_symbols_per_thread is not 1.
nrLDPC_coding: improvements
One improvement in this changeset: Functions nr_interleaving_ldpc,
nr_deinterleaving_ldpc, nr_rate_matching_ldpc and
nr_rate_matching_ldpc_rx that were previously linked with the PHY layer
in the executables are now linked with the LDPC coding implementations
where they are called.
The parent commit cleans up and groups oai_exit in one place,
nr-softmodem-common.h. Therefore, this 5G file is included in the 4G
defs_common.h (at least it's mostly 4G), which is not nice. Instead,
define oai_exit also in 4G softmodem-common.h, and include this in
defs_common.h. Remove the cyclic inclusion of defs_common.h in
softmodem-common.h, and resolve all subsequent errors around unknown
types and extern definition mismatches.
