f04c22033c cfg80211: export interface stopping function
This exports a new cfg80211_stop_iface() function.

This is intended for driver internal interface
combination management and channel switching.

Due to locking issues (it re-enters driver) the
call is asynchronous and uses cfg80211 event
list/worker.

7c8d5e03ac cfg80211: send stop AP event only due to internal reason
Commit "nl80211: send event when AP operation is stopped" added an
event to notify user space that an AP interface has been stopped, to
handle cases such as suspend etc. The event is sent regardless
if the stop AP flow was triggered by user space or due to internal state
change.

This might cause issues with wpa_supplicant/hostapd flows that consider
stop AP flow as a synchronous one, e.g., AP/GO channel change in the
absence of CSA support. In such cases, the flow will restart the AP
immediately after the stop AP flow is done, and only handle the stop
AP event after the current flow is done, and as a result stop the AP
again.

Change the current implementation to only send the event in case the
stop AP was triggered due to an internal reason.

9e0e29615a cfg80211: consider existing DFS interfaces
It was possible to break interface combinations in
the following way:

 combo 1: iftype = AP, num_ifaces = 2, num_chans = 2,
 combo 2: iftype = AP, num_ifaces = 1, num_chans = 1, radar = HT20

With the above interface combinations it was
possible to:

 step 1. start AP on DFS channel by matching combo 2
 step 2. start AP on non-DFS channel by matching combo 1

This was possible beacuse (step 2) did not consider
if other interfaces require radar detection.

The patch changes how cfg80211 tracks channels -
instead of channel itself now a complete chandef
is stored.

348baf0eac nl80211: send event when AP operation is stopped
There are a few cases, e.g. suspend, where an AP interface is
stopped by the kernel rather than by userspace request, most
commonly when suspending. To let userspace know about this,
send the NL80211_CMD_STOP_AP command as an event every time
an AP interface is stopped. This also happens when userspace
did in fact request the AP stop, but that's not a problem.

For full-MAC drivers this may need to be extended to also
cover cases where the device stopped the AP operation for
some reason, this a bit more complicated because then all
cfg80211 state also needs to be reset; such API is not part
of this patch.

fa9ffc7456 cfg80211: Add support for QoS mapping
This allows QoS mapping from external networks to be implemented as
defined in IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 10.24.9. APs can use this to advertise
DSCP ranges and exceptions for mapping frames to a specific UP over
Wi-Fi.

The payload of the QoS Map Set element (IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 8.4.2.97)
is sent to the driver through the new NL80211_ATTR_QOS_MAP attribute to
configure the local behavior either on the AP (based on local
configuration) or on a station (based on information received from the
AP).

947add36ca cfg80211: move exported event functions into nl80211
This is the sort of thing gcc's LTO could do, but since
we don't have that yet we can also do it manually. The
advantage is reduced code, both source and binary, e.g.
on x86-64

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 442825	  56230	    776	 499831	  7a077	cfg80211.ko (before)
 441585	  56230	    776	 498591	  79b9f	cfg80211.ko (after)

a reduction of ~1k.

But in order to not complicate the code move only those
functions that are simple wrappers, not those that have
functionality of their own.

f4489ebeff cfg80211: add channel tracking for AP and mesh
We need to know which channel is used by a running
AP and mesh for channel context accounting and
finding matching/active interface combination.

STA/IBSS have current_bss already which allows us
to check which channel a vif is tuned to.
Non-fixed channel IBSS can be handled with
additional changes.

Monitor mode is going to be handled differently.
