It doesn't seem problematic to change the weight for the average
beacon signal from 3 to 4, so use DECLARE_EWMA. This also makes
the code easier to maintain since bugs like the one fixed in the
previous patch can't happen as easily.
With a fix from Avraham Stern to invert the sign since EMWA uses
unsigned values only.

The ifmgd->ave_beacon_signal value cannot be taken as is for
comparisons, it must be divided by since it's represented
like that for better accuracy of the EWMA calculations. This
would lead to invalid driver RSSI events. Fix the used value.

These file aren't really useful:
- if per beacon data is required then you need to use
radiotap or similar anyway, debugfs won't help much
- average beacon signal is reported in station info in

The direct probe step before authentication was done mostly for
two reasons:
1) the BSS data could be stale
2) the beacon might not have included all IEs
The concern (1) doesn't really seem to be relevant any more as
we time out BSS information after about 30 seconds, and in fact
the original patch only did the direct probe if the data was
older than the BSS timeout to begin with. This condition got
(likely inadvertedly) removed later though.
Analysing this in more detail shows that since we mostly use
data from the association response, the only real reason for
needing the probe response was that the code validates the WMM
parameters, and those are optional in beacons. As the previous
patches removed that behaviour, we can now remove the direct
probe step entirely.

Currently the cfg80211's frame registration api receives wdev, however
mac80211 assumes per device filter configuration and ignores wdev.
Per device filtering is too wasteful, especially for multi-channel
devices.
Introduce new per vif frame registration API and use it for probe
request registrations in ieee80211_mgmt_frame_register()
Also call directly to ieee80211_configure_filter instead of using a work
since it is now allowed to sleep in ieee80211_mgmt_frame_register.

Queued frames aren't processed during scan, which results in an inability
to complete the BA session establishment until the scan ends. Since we
can't tx frames until the BA agreement setup is complete, it might result
in a very large latency during scan.
Fix this by allowing to process queued skbs while scanning in HW. This
should be ok since the devices which support hw scan should be able
to handle tx/rx while scanning.
During SW scan, mac80211 drops any txed frames besides probes and NDPs,
so it is still needed to delay processing of the queued frames till the
SW scan is done.

Currently if 80MHz channels are not allowed for use, the VHT IE is not
included in the probe request for an AP. This is not good enough if the
AP is configured with the wrong regulatory and supports VHT even where
prohibited or in TDLS scenarios.
Mark the ifmgd with the DISABLE_VHT flag for the misbehaving-AP case, and
unset VHT support from the peer-station entry for the TDLS case.

HT TDLS traffic should be protected in a non-HT BSS to avoid
collisions. Therefore, when TDLS peers join/leave, check if
protection is (now) needed and set the ht_operation_mode of
the virtual interface according to the HT capabilities of the
TDLS peer(s).
This works because a non-HT BSS connection never sets (or
otherwise uses) the ht_operation_mode; it just means that
drivers must be aware that this field applies to all HT
traffic for this virtual interface, not just the traffic
within the BSS. Document that.

The rate_control_cap_mask() function takes a parameter mcs_mask, which
GCC will take to be u8 * even though it was declared with a fixed size.
This causes the following warning:

net/mac80211/rate.c:719:25: warning: 'sizeof' on array function parameter 'mcs_mask' will return size of 'u8 * {aka unsigned char *}' [-Wsizeof-array-argument]

^
net/mac80211/rate.c:684:10: note: declared here

Instead of using peer link id for AID, generate a new
AID when creating mesh STAs in the kernel peering manager.
This enables smaller TIM elements and more closely follows
the standard, and it also enables mesh to work on drivers
that require a valid AID when the STA is inserted (ath10k
firmware has this requirement, for example).
In the case of userspace-managed stations, we use the AID
from NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION.

According to 802.11-2012 13.3.1, a mesh STA should assign an AID
upon receipt of a mesh peering open frame rather than using the link
id of the peer. Using the peer link id has two potential issues:
it may not be unique among the peers, and by its nature it is random,
so the TIM may not compress well.
In preparation for allocating it properly, use sta->sta.aid, but keep
the existing behavior of using the plid in the aid we send.

Currently, mac80211 calls drv_resume() on wowlan resume,
but drops any incoming frame until local->suspended is
cleared later on.
This requires the low-level driver to support a new state,
in which it is expected to fully work (as it was resumed)
but not passing rx frames yet (as they will be dropped).
iwlwifi (and probably other drivers as well) has issues
supporting such mode.
Since in the wowlan case we already short-circuit
ieee80211_reconfig, there's nothing that prevents us from
clearing local->suspend before calling drv_resume(),
and letting the low-level driver work normally.

The IEEE802.11-2012 specification is vague regarding SMPS operation during
TDLS. It does not define a clear way to transition between SMPS states.
To avoid interop issues, set SMPS to off when TDLS peers are connected.
Accomplish this by extending the definition of the AUTOMATIC state. If the
driver forces a state other than OFF, disconnect all TDLS peers.
While at it, avoid changing the SMPS state of the peer STA. We have no
way to control it, so try and behave correctly towards it.
Move the TDLS peer-teardown function to where the rest of the TDLS code
resides.

We already set a station to be associated when peering completes, both
in user space and in the kernel. Thus we should always have an
associated sta before sending data frames to that station.
Failure to check assoc state can cause crashes in the lower-level driver
due to transmitting unicast data frames before driver sta structures
(e.g. ampdu state in ath9k) are initialized. This occurred when
forwarding in the presence of fixed mesh paths: frames were transmitted
to stations with whom we hadn't yet completed peering.

When processing a PREQ or PREP it's critical to use the incoming SN. If
that is improperly done routing loops and other types of badness can
happen. But the code was always processing path messages for deactivated
paths. This path fixes that so that if we have a valid SN then we use it
to verify that it is a message we can accept. For reference the relevant
section of the standard is 13.10.8.4 which doesn't address the deactivated
path case at all.
I also included a special case for when our peer reboots or restarts
networking. This is an important case because without it there can be a
very long delay before we accept path messages from that peer. It's also a
simple case and intimately associated with processing messages for
deactivated paths so I used one patch instead of two.

The 2012 spec mentions that path SNs can be invalid when created (see
section 13.10.8.4 table 13-9) but AFAICT never talks about invalidating
SNs. Which makes sense: if we have figured out the path to a target at a
certain SN then we want to remember that fact. Failing to do so can lead
to routing loops because if we don't have a valid SN then we have no way
of knowing whether an incoming path message leads to or away from the
target.
However currently when discovery fails we zero out mpath->flags which
clears MESH_PATH_SN_VALID. This patch fixes that so that only the
discovery relevant flags are cleared.
