204d130426 mac80211: clean up mesh local link ID generation
802.11-2012 13.3.1 implicitly limits the mesh local link
ID range to that of AID, since for mesh PS the local link
ID must be indicated in the TIM IE, which only holds
IEEE80211_MAX_AID bits.

Also the code was allowing a local link ID of 0, but this
is not correct since that TIM bit is used for indicating
buffered mcast frames.

Generate a random, unique, link ID from 1 - 2007, and drop
a modulo conversion for the local link ID, but keep it for
the peer link ID in case he chose something > MAX_AID.

272a9e2614 mac80211: mesh_plink: don't ignore holding timer
The ignore_plink_timer flag is set when doing mod_timer() if
the timer was not previously active.  This is to avoid executing
the timeout if del_timer() was subsequently called.  However,
del_timer() only happens if we are moving to ESTAB state or
get a close frame while in HOLDING.

We cannot leave HOLDING and re-enter ESTAB unless we receive a
close frame (in which case ignore_plink_timer is already set) or
if the timeout expires, so there actually isn't a case where
this is needed on mod_timer().

2e3049b79c mac80211: do not compute offset from ssn in Rx AMPDU reordering buffer
Currently, frames that go into the reordering buffer are stored at
index ieee80211_sn_sub(sn, tid_rx->ssn) % tid_rx->buf_size.

The offset calculation to the starting sequence number (SSN) is
useless and just adds overhead so simply use sn % tid_rx->buf_size.

This means the reordering buffer will start to be filled somewhere
in the middle (at SSN % buf_size) and continue to get used from
there, but there's no reason to start from the beginning.

Mesh STA receiving the mesh CSA action frame is not able to trigger
the mesh channel switch due to the incorrect handling and comparison
of mesh channel switch parameters element (MCSP)'s TTL. Make sure
the MCSP's TTL is updated accordingly before calling the
ieee80211_mesh_process_chnswitch. Also, we update the beacon before
forwarding the CSA action frame, so MCSP's precedence value and
initiator flag need to be updated prior to this.

18db594a10 mac80211: fix scheduled scan rtnl deadlock
When changing cfg80211 to use RTNL locking, this caused a
deadlock in mac80211 as it calls cfg80211_sched_scan_stopped()
from a work item that's on a workqueue that is flushed with
the RTNL held.

Fix this by simply using schedule_work(), the work only needs
to finish running before the wiphy is unregistered, no other
synchronisation (e.g. with suspend) is really required since
for suspend userspace is already blocked anyway when we flush
the workqueue so will only pick up the event after resume.

2d3db21086 Revert "mac80211: allow disable power save in mesh"
This reverts commit ee1f668136.

The aformentioned commit added a check to allow
'iw wlan0 set power_save off' to work for mesh interfaces.

However, this is problematic because it also allows
'iw wlan0 set power_save on', which will crash in short order
because all of the subsequent code manipulates sdata->u.mgd.

The power-saving states for mesh interfaces can be manipulated
through the mesh config, e.g:
'iw wlan0 set mesh_param mesh_power_save=active' (which,
despite the name, actualy disables power saving since the
setting refers to the type of sleep the interface undergoes).

687da13223 mac80211: implement SMPS for AP
When the driver requests to move to STATIC or DYNAMIC SMPS,
we send an action frame to each associated station and
reconfigure the channel context / driver.
Of course, non-MIMO stations are ignored.

The beacon isn't updated. The association response will
include the original capabilities. Stations that associate
while in non-OFF SMPS mode will get an action frame right
after association to inform them about our current state.
Note that we wait until the end of the EAPOL. Sending an
action frame before the EAPOL is finished can be an issue
for a few clients. Clients aren't likely to send EAPOL
frames in MIMO anyway.

When the SMPS configuration gets more permissive (e.g.
STATIC -> OFF), we don't wake up stations that are asleep
We remember that they don't know about the change and send
the action frame when they wake up.

When the SMPS configuration gets more restrictive (e.g.
OFF -> STATIC), we set the TIM bit for every sleeping STA.
uAPSD stations might send MIMO until they poll the action
frame, but this is for a short period of time.

c1b1203d65 net: misc: Remove extern from function prototypes
There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources.  Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.

Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler.  Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

095d81cee7 mac80211: disable WMM with invalid parameters
Some APs (notably a Sitecom WL-153 v1 with firmware 1.45) are sending
invalid WMM parameters setting AIFSN, ECWmin and ECWmax to zero. The
spec mandates that the value of AIFSN is at least 2, and some cards
(e.g. Intel with the iwldvm driver) can't transmit when the invalid
QoS parameters are actually uploaded to the firmware.

Since there's little chance of being able to guess the values that
the AP actually meant, disable WMM if such an invalid case is found.
Since ECWmin/ECWmax are allowed to be zero, only verify AIFSN >= 2
and ECWmin <= ECWmax.

1d2d350bbf mac80211: respect rate mask in TX
Bitrate mask were not respected in transmissions, causing (for
example) P2P GO/client to use CCK rates for auth and assoc frames.
Fix it by considering the rate mask in __rate_control_send_low().

1431fcb74e mac80211: fix honouring rate flags in low-rate transmit
Transmissions with the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_CCK_RATE flag set
(which can come from userspace) were no longer guaranteed to
be transmitted with allowed rates since commit 2103dec147
("mac80211: select and adjust bitrates according to channel
mode") due to a missing rate_flags check in that commit. The
commit also introduced the need to check the 5/10 MHz flags
but accidentally didn't. Fix it by adding the missing check.
