This support is essentially useless as typically networks are encrypted,
frames will be filtered by hardware, and rate scaling will be done with
the intended recipient in mind. For real monitoring of the network, the
monitor mode support should be used instead.
Removing it removes a lot of corner cases.

In struct wl18xx_acx_rx_rate_stat, rx_frames_per_rates field is an
array, not a number. This means WL18XX_DEBUGFS_FWSTATS_FILE can't be
used to display this field in debugfs (it would display a pointer, not
the actual data). Use WL18XX_DEBUGFS_FWSTATS_FILE_ARRAY instead.
This bug has been found by adding a __printf attribute to
wl1271_format_buffer. gcc complained about "format '%u' expects
argument of type 'unsigned int', but argument 5 has type 'u32 *'".

This modifies cfg80211_vendor_event_alloc() with an additional argument

These changes make it easier for drivers to add ifindex indication in

This is really just duplicating the list of information that's

* remove STATION_INFO_ASSOC_REQ_IES complete, but the length
(assoc_req_ies_len) can be used instead
* add NL80211_STA_INFO_RX_DROP_MISC which exists internally
but not in nl80211 yet

In many cases, drivers can filter things like beacons that will
skew statistics reported by mac80211. To get correct statistics
in these cases, call drivers to obtain statistics and let them
override all values, filling values from mac80211 if the driver
didn't provide them. Not all of them make sense for the driver
to fill, so some are still always done by mac80211.
Note that this doesn't currently allow a driver to say "I know
this value is wrong, don't report it at all", or to sum it up
with a mac80211 value (as could be useful for "dropped misc"),
that can be added if it turns out to be needed.
This also gets rid of the get_rssi() method as is can now be
implemented using sta_statistics().

Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There are
