fa96aabb6a wireless: fixup genregdb.awk for remove of antenna gain from wireless-regd
Since "wireless-regdb: remove antenna gain" was merged in the
wireless-regdb tree, the awk script parser has been incompatible
with the 'official' regulatory database.  This fixes that up.
Without this change the max EIRP is set to 0 making 802.11 devices
useless.

The fragile nature of the awk parser must be replaced, but ideas
over how to do that in the most scalable way are being reviewed.
In the meantime update the documentation for CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB
so folks are aware of expectations for now.

3e2a0226c6 mac80211: remove redundant IEEE80211_STA_CSA_RECEIVED flag
The csa_active flag was added in sdata a while ago and made
IEEE80211_STA_CSA_RECEIVED redundant.  The new flag is also used to
mark when CSA is ongoing on other iftypes and took over the old one as
the preferred method for checking whether we're in the middle of a
channel switch.  Remove the old, redundant flag.

bb3f848608 mac80211: make sure TDLS teardown packet is sent on time
Since the teardown packet is created while the queues are
stopped, it isn't sent immediately, but rather is pending.
To be sure that when we flush the queues prior to destroying
the station we also send this packet - the tasklet handling
pending packets is invoked to flush the packets.

b7ffbd7ef6 cfg80211: make ethtool the driver's responsibility
Currently, cfg80211 tries to implement ethtool, but that doesn't
really scale well, with all the different operations. Make the
lower-level driver responsible for it, which currently only has
an effect on mac80211. It will similarly not scale well at that
level though, since mac80211 also has many drivers.

To cleanly implement this in mac80211, introduce a new file and
move some code to appropriate places.

ba9030c20a mac80211: remove weak WEP IV accounting
Since WEP is practically dead, there seems very little
point in keeping WEP weak IV accounting.

2b470c39e8 mac80211: remove ignore_plink_timer flag
The mesh_plink code is doing some interesting things with the
ignore_plink_timer flag.  It seems the original intent was to
handle this race:

cpu 0                           cpu 1
-----                           -----
                                start timer handler for state X
acquire sta_lock
change state from X to Y
mod_timer() / del_timer()
release sta_lock
                                acquire sta_lock
                                execute state Y timer too soon

However, using the mod_timer()/del_timer() return values to
detect these cases is broken.  As a result, timers get ignored
unnecessarily, and stations can get stuck in the peering state
machine.

Instead, we can detect the case by looking at the timer expiration.
In the case of del_timer, just ignore the timers in the following
(LISTEN/ESTAB) states since they won't have timers anyway.

5ac2e35030 mac80211: fix station/driver powersave race
It is currently possible to have a race due to the station PS
unblock work like this:
 * station goes to sleep with frames buffered in the driver
 * driver blocks wakeup
 * station wakes up again
 * driver flushes/returns frames, and unblocks, which schedules
   the unblock work
 * unblock work starts to run, and checks that the station is
   awake (i.e. that the WLAN_STA_PS_STA flag isn't set)
 * we process a received frame with PM=1, setting the flag again
 * ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup() runs, delivering all frames
   to the driver, and then clearing the WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER and
   WLAN_STA_PS_STA flags

In this scenario, mac80211 will think that the station is awake,
while it really is asleep, and any TX'ed frames should be filtered
by the device (it will know that the station is sleeping) but then
passed to mac80211 again, which will not buffer it either as it
thinks the station is awake, and eventually the packets will be
dropped.

Fix this by moving the clearing of the flags to exactly where we
learn about the situation. This creates a problem of reordering,
so introduce another flag indicating that delivery is being done,
this new flag also queues frames and is cleared only while the
spinlock is held (which the queuing code also holds) so that any
concurrent delivery/TX is handled correctly.
