3d9d1d6656 nl80211/cfg80211: support VHT channel configuration
Change nl80211 to support specifying a VHT (or HT)
using the control channel frequency (as before) and
new attributes for the channel width and first and
second center frequency. The old channel type is of
course still supported for HT.

Also change the cfg80211 channel definition struct
to support these by adding the relevant fields to
it (and removing the _type field.)

This also adds new helper functions:
 - cfg80211_chandef_create to create a channel def
   struct given the control channel and channel type,
 - cfg80211_chandef_identical to check if two channel
   definitions are identical
 - cfg80211_chandef_compatible to check if the given
   channel definitions are compatible, and return the
   wider of the two

This isn't entirely complete, but that doesn't matter
until we have a driver using it. In particular, it's
missing
 - regulatory checks on the usable bandwidth (if that
   even makes sense)
 - regulatory TX power (database can't deal with it)
 - a proper channel compatibility calculation for the
   new channel types

683b6d3b31 cfg80211: pass a channel definition struct
Instead of passing a channel pointer and channel type
to all functions and driver methods, pass a new channel
definition struct. Right now, this struct contains just
the control channel and channel type, but for VHT this
will change.

Also, add a small inline cfg80211_get_chandef_type() so
that drivers don't need to use the _type field of the
new structure all the time, which will change.

42d97a599e cfg80211: remove remain-on-channel channel type
As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the
only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel
with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it.
This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations
right now.

Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or
not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code
by removing the ability to use different channel types.
Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if
we extend it again later (with the needed capability
flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.

c8442118ad cfg80211: allow per interface TX power setting
The TX power setting is currently per wiphy (hardware
device) but with multi-channel capabilities that doesn't
make much sense any more.

Allow drivers (and mac80211) to advertise support for
per-interface TX power configuration. When the TX power
is configured for the wiphy, the wdev will be NULL and
the driver can still handle that, but when a wdev is
given the TX power can be set only for that wdev now.

04b2312a68 wireless: drivers: make use of WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC
The include file linux/ieee80211.h contains three definitions for
the same thing in enum ieee80211_eid due to historic changes:

/* Information Element IDs */
enum ieee80211_eid {
    :
    WLAN_EID_WPA = 221,
    WLAN_EID_GENERIC = 221,
    WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC = 221,
    :
};

The standard refers to this as "vendor specific" element so the
other two definitions are better not used. This patch changes the
wireless drivers to use one definition, ie. WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC.

b292219fa5 wireless: use OR operation to set wiphy features
The next patch will introduce a flag that is set
by default in cfg80211 so drivers and mac80211
need to use |= to set features they have so that
they don't clear the already-set feature.

We could set the flag in wiphy_register() instead
of wiphy_new() to avoid this patch, but then the
drivers couldn't *unset* flags they don't want to
use even though the implementation is generic.

dfb89c56ad cfg80211: don't allow WoWLAN support without CONFIG_PM
When CONFIG_PM is disabled, no device can possibly
support WoWLAN since it can't go to sleep to start
with. Due to this, mac80211 had even rejected the
hardware registration. By making all the code and
data for WoWLAN depend on CONFIG_PM we can promote
this runtime error to a compile-time error.

Add #ifdef around all WoWLAN code to remove it in
systems that don't need it as they never suspend.

aa430da410 cfg80211: provide channel to start_ap function
Instead of setting the channel first and then
starting the AP, let cfg80211 store the channel
and provide it as one of the AP settings.

This means that now you have to set the channel
before you can start an AP interface, but since
hostapd/wpa_supplicant always do that we're OK
with this change.

Alternatively, it's now possible to give the
channel as an attribute to the start-ap nl80211
command, overriding any preset channel.

67b3f1299a ath6kl: separate ht cap for each band
In virtual interface structure, for each band separate ht cap
is needed. so that one can disable or enable ht capability band
wise.
This will fix the following issue:

1) Disable 11n from supplicant and start a P2P GO.
2) In beacon frames no HT-CAP IE is seen which is expected.
3) Now remove the P2P GO and kill the supplicant.
4) Beacon stops
5) Now using iw  associate to an external AP in 5 GHZ
6) In 5 GHZ no HT IE going in assoc request but
when  associated in 2.4 GHZ can see HT IES over the air
in assoc request.

In the code for del_beacon in cfg80211.c,set_ht_cap is being
called first for 2.4 GHZ and then for 5 GHZ. When  called
for the first time for 2.4 GHZ the enable flag will be set to true
and so when called for the second time for 5 GHZ it just returns
after checking the flag.

Also using this one can have different HT capabilities
per band (for example one may decide not to use 20/40 in 2.4 GHZ
but use it in 5 GHZ). So maintaining a single context is not ok.
it is true for even the enable/disable flag and other HT
capabilities as well

ath6kl would issue a wmi disconnect command in response to a remote

Pass the right reason code to cfg80211 on the first disconnect instead.

dd45b7598f ath6kl: Include match ssid list in scheduled scan
Scheduled scan implementation was only taking probed list into
consideration. The matched list was dropped. This would cause
FW not to report the AP as the list never had that AP's SSID
populated. This was causing long connection time when supplicant
would just issue a wild card SSID in probed list. As a part of
this implementation, ath6kl driver would create a complete list
by taking both probed and matched list and pass it to FW. FW would
probe for the SSID that it needs to and would match against the
relevant SSIDS that is been configured.

3d79499c1c ath6kl: Fix scan related issue on suspend-resume
When a scan request is pending while going to suspend, any new
scan request after resume will fail. So, cancel all scan requests
in all the vifs before moving to suspend state.

f599359cb9 ath6kl: Set background scan period.
After connect command, send scan params WMI command to
set background scan period. If period value is zero
send 0xffff as bg scan period to disable bg scan.
Set default bg scan period to be 60 seconds if
not specified.

This patch depends on below patch
cfg80211: Add background scan period attribute.

5b35dff0bb ath6kl: Store scan request info in-advance before sending SCAN request
In current code, Scan request info is recorded in vif->scan_req
after sending SCAN request to the firmware in ath6kl_cfg80211_scan().

In some corner cases, firmware sends SCAN_COMPLETE event immediately
when it receives SCAN request, which internally executes scan
complete event handler ath6kl_cfg80211_scan_complete_event() first.
So, Scan completion handler will a get a chance to executed even
before storing scan request info in ath6kl_cfg80211_scan().

Scan completion handler never report SCAN_COMPLETE event to
cfg80211 if scan request info(vif->scan_req) is NULL. This leads
to scan failure issue ("Device or resource busy error") during
next SCAN request from the user space. This patch ensures that scan
request info is stored before sending SCAN request.

03bdeb0d54 ath6kl: Configure inactivity timeout in fw
Configure the inactivity timeout passed in start_ap() to
firmware. This capability is advertised only when fw supports
it, there is a new bit (ATH6KL_FW_CAPABILITY_INACTIVITY_TIMEOUT)
in firmware capability ie for driver to learn fw's capability.
After the fw finds out the station is inactive, it will probe
the station with null func frames. By default, the timeout is
10 secs.

40abc2defb ath6kl: Optimize target power in deep sleep suspend
Adding below steps helps to get good power numbers
in deep sleep suspend path,

    * Disable WOW mode.
    * Flush data packets and wait for all control packets.
      to be cleared in TX path before deep sleep suspend.
    * Set host sleep mode to SLEEP.

Below steps are added to perform the recovery action
while the system resume from deep sleep,

     * Set host sleep mode to AWAKE.
     * Reset scan parameters to default value.

In addition, Debug prints are added to track deep sleep
suspend/resume state.

055bde493f ath6kl: Isolate host sleep mode config part from ath6kl_wow_suspend
The piece of code used in ath6kk_wow_suspend function
to configure the host sleep mode is needed in deep sleep
case also.

Moving that portion to a separate function called
ath6kl_update_host_mode() would be helpful to avoid
the duplication of the same code in deep sleep path.

There is no functional change.
