Drivers that don't use chanctxes cannot perform VHT association because
they still use a "backward compatibility" pair of {ieee80211_channel,
nl80211_channel_type} in ieee80211_conf and ieee80211_local.

Pull networking update from David Miller:
1) Checkpoint/restarted TCP sockets now can properly propagate the TCP
timestamp offset. From Andrey Vagin.
2) VMWARE VM VSOCK layer, from Andy King.
3) Much improved support for virtual functions and SR-IOV in bnx2x,
from Ariel ELior.
4) All protocols on ipv4 and ipv6 are now network namespace aware, and
all the compatability checks for initial-namespace-only protocols is
removed. Thanks to Tom Parkin for helping deal with the last major
holdout, L2TP.
5) IPV6 support in netpoll and network namespace support in pktgen,
from Cong Wang.
6) Multiple Registration Protocol (MRP) and Multiple VLAN Registration
Protocol (MVRP) support, from David Ward.
7) Compute packet lengths more accurately in the packet scheduler, from
Eric Dumazet.
8) Use per-task page fragment allocator in skb_append_datato_frags(),
also from Eric Dumazet.
9) Add support for connection tracking labels in netfilter, from
Florian Westphal.
10) Fix default multicast group joining on ipv6, and add anti-spoofing
checks to 6to4 and 6rd. From Hannes Frederic Sowa.
11) Make ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation memory limits more reasonable in modern
times, rearrange inet frag datastructures for better cacheline
locality, and move more operations outside of locking. From Jesper
Dangaard Brouer.
12) Instead of strict master <--> slave relationships, allow arbitrary
scenerios with "upper device lists". From Jiri Pirko.
13) Improve rate limiting accuracy in TBF and act_police, also from Jiri
Pirko.
14) Add a BPF filter netfilter match target, from Willem de Bruijn.
15) Orphan and delete a bunch of pre-historic networking drivers from
Paul Gortmaker.
16) Add TSO support for GRE tunnels, from Pravin B SHelar. Although
this still needs some minor bug fixing before it's %100 correct in
all cases.
17) Handle unresolved IPSEC states like ARP, with a resolution packet
queue. From Steffen Klassert.
18) Remove TCP Appropriate Byte Count support (ABC), from Stephen
Hemminger. This was long overdue.
19) Support SO_REUSEPORT, from Tom Herbert.
20) Allow locking a socket BPF filter, so that it cannot change after a
process drops capabilities.
21) Add VLAN filtering to bridge, from Vlad Yasevich.
22) Bring ipv6 on-par with ipv4 and do not cache neighbour entries in
the ipv6 routes, from YOSHIFUJI Hideaki.

There are only a few drivers that use HW scan, and
all of those don't need a non-idle transition before
starting the scan -- some don't even care about idle
at all. Remove the flag and code associated with it.
The only driver that really actually needed this is
wl1251 and it can just do it itself in the hw_scan
callback -- implement that.

Remove the control.sta pointer from ieee80211_tx_info to free up
sufficient space in the TX skb control buffer for the upcoming
Transmit Power Control (TPC).
Instead, the pointer is now on the stack in a new control struct
that is passed as a function parameter to the drivers' tx method.

Firmware supports changing filters using ACX_RX_CFG command,
so use it in .configure_filter callback. Firmware also supports
probe request filtering, so add it too along the way.
This will also re-enable BSSID filter which is now removed by
join command while associating.

This driver has a hack in cmd.c which effectively disables all filtering.
This seems to be triggering a firmware bug where it stops reporting any
rx packets after random time on some routers, which is eliminated (or at
least appears much more rarely) when filtering is on.
I have found that only BSSID filter needs to be disabled for association
to work, so disable only that instead of all filtering.

Always report beacon loss to the stack, not only when in powersave
state. This is because there's possibility that the driver disables
PSM before it handles old BSS_LOSE_EVENT, so beacon loss has to be
reported.

This driver disables interrupt just after requesting it and enables it
later, after interface is up. However currently there is a time window
between request_irq() and disable_irq() where if interrupt arrives, the
driver oopses because it's not yet ready to process it. This can be
reproduced by inserting the module, associating and removing the module
multiple times.
Eliminate this race by setting IRQF_NOAUTOEN flag before request_irq().

Resolved the iwlwifi conflict with mainline using 3-way diff posted
by John Linville and Stephen Rothwell. In 'net' we added a bug
fix to make iwlwifi report a more accurate skb->truesize but this
conflicted with RX path changes that happened meanwhile in net-next.
In e1000e a conflict arose in the validation code for settings of
adapter->itr. 'net-next' had more sophisticated logic so that
logic was used.
