eecc48000a mac80211: add basic support for WoWLAN
This adds basic support for the new WoWLAN
configuration in mac80211. The behaviour is
completely offloaded to the driver though,
with two new callbacks (suspend/resume).

Options for the driver include a complete
reconfiguration after wakeup, and exposing
all the triggers it wants to support.

ff1b6e69ad nl80211/cfg80211: WoWLAN support
This is based on (but now quite far from) the
original work from Luis and Eliad. Add support
for configuring WoWLAN triggers, and getting
the configuration out again. Changes from the
original patchset are too numerous to list,
but one important change needs highlighting:
the suspend() callback is passed NULL for the
trigger configuration if userspace has not
configured WoWLAN at all.

bdbfd6b582 mac80211: Add new API for rate selection
This patch adds a new API for setting a TX rate mask in
drivers that have rate control in either the firmware or hardware.
This can be used for various purposes, for example, masking out the

243e6df4ed mac80211: fix SMPS debugfs locking
The locking with SMPS requests means that the
debugs file should lock the mgd mutex, not the
iflist mutex. Calls to __ieee80211_request_smps()
need to hold that mutex, so add an assertion.

This has always been wrong, but for some reason
never been noticed, probably because the locking
error only happens while unassociated.

808118cb41 mac80211: do not enable ps if 802.1x controlled port is unblocked
If dynamic_ps is disabled, enabling power save before the 4-way
handshake completes may delay the station from being authorized to
send/receive traffic, i.e. increase roaming times. It also may result in
a failed 4-way handshake depending on the AP's timing requirements and
beacon interval, and the station's listen interval.

To fix this, prevent power save from being enabled while the station
isn't authorized and recalculate power save whenever the station's
authorized state changes.

4334ec8518 mac80211: fix TX status cookie in HW offload case
When the off-channel TX is done with remain-on-channel
offloaded to hardware, the reported cookie is wrong as
in that case we shouldn't use the SKB as the cookie but
need to instead use the corresponding r-o-c cookie
(XOR'ed with 2 to prevent API mismatches).

Fix this by keeping track of the hw_roc_skb pointer
just for the status processing and use the correct
cookie to report in this case. We can't use the
hw_roc_skb pointer itself because it is NULL'ed when
the frame is transmitted to prevent it being used
twice.

This fixes a bug where the P2P state machine in the
supplicant gets stuck because it never gets a correct
result for its transmitted frame.

29cbe68c51 cfg80211/mac80211: add mesh join/leave commands
Instead of tying mesh activity to interface up,
add join and leave commands for mesh. Since we
must be backward compatible, let cfg80211 handle
joining a mesh if a mesh ID was pre-configured
when the device goes up.

Note that this therefore must modify mac80211 as
well since mac80211 needs to lose the logic to
start the mesh on interface up.

We now allow querying mesh parameters before the
mesh is connected, which simply returns defaults.
Setting them (internally renamed to "update") is
only allowed while connected. Specify them with
the new mesh join command instead where needed.

In mac80211, beaconing must now also follow the
mesh enabled/not enabled state, which is done
by testing the mesh ID.
