Enhance sched scan to support option of finding a better BSS while in
connected state. Firmware scans the medium and reports when it finds a
known BSS which has better RSSI than the current connected BSS. New
attributes to specify the relative RSSI (compared to the current BSS)
are added to the sched scan to implement this.

Add support to use a random local address (Address 2 = TA in transmit
and the same address in receive functionality) for Public Action frames
in order to improve privacy of WLAN clients. Applications fill the
random transmit address in the frame buffer in the NL80211_CMD_FRAME
command. This can be used only with the drivers that indicate support
for random local address by setting the new
NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_MGMT_TX_RANDOM_TA and/or
NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_MGMT_TX_RANDOM_TA_CONNECTED in ext_features.

The driver needs to configure receive behavior to accept frames to the
specified random address during the time the frame exchange is pending
and such frames need to be acknowledged similarly to frames sent to the
local permanent address when this random address functionality is not
used.

With 78, 111 and 85 bytes respectively (on x86-64), the
functions iwe_stream_add_event(), iwe_stream_add_point()
and iwe_stream_add_value() really shouldn't be inlines.

It appears that at least my compiler already decided
the same, and created a single instance of each one
of them for each file using it, but that's still a
number of instances in the system overall, which this

gcc-7 complains that wl3501_cs passes NULL into a function that
then uses the argument as the input for memcpy:

drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c: In function 'wl3501_get_scan':
include/net/iw_handler.h:559:3: error: argument 2 null where non-null expected [-Werror=nonnull]
   memcpy(stream + point_len, extra, iwe->u.data.length);

This works fine here because iwe->u.data.length is guaranteed to be 0
and the memcpy doesn't actually have an effect.

Making the length check explicit avoids the warning and should have
no other effect here.

Also check the pointer itself, since otherwise we get warnings
elsewhere in the code.

There is not a valid reason to attempt setting the monitor channel
while in managed mode. Since this code path only deals with this mode,
remove the code block.

Johannes: I'll note that the comment indicated it was for backward
compatibility, but the code wasn't functional since switching the
monitor channel isn't supported (any more?) when in managed mode, as
that mode owns the channel configuration. Additionally, since monitor
can't be done on a managed mode interface, this would only have had
any effect to start with if a separate monitor interface is present,
in which case it's better to change the channel through that anyway,
if even possible.

Disconnect or deauthenticate when the owning socket is closed if this

to ensure userspace daemon doesn't leave an unmanaged connection behind.

In some situations it would be possible to account for that, to some
degree, in the deamon restart code or in the up/down scripts without
the use of this attribute.  But there will be systems where the daemon
can go away for varying periods without a warning due to local resource

Ilan reported that sometimes nl80211 messages weren't working if
the frames being transported got very large, which was really a
problem for userspace-to-kernel messages, but prompted me to look
at the code.

Upon review, I found various places where variable-length data is
transported in an nl80211 message but the message isn't allocated
taking that into account. This shouldn't cause any problems since
the frames aren't really that long, apart in one place where two
(possibly very long frames) might not fit.

Fix all the places (that I found) that get variable length data
from the driver and put it into a message to take the length of
the variable data into account. The 100 there is just a safe
constant for the remaining message overhead (it's usually around
50 for most messages.)

This patch adds a helper for reading that new property and applying
limitations of supported channels specified this way.
It is used with devices that normally support a wide wireless band but
in a given config are limited to some part of it (usually due to board
design). For example a dual-band chipset may be able to support one band
only because of used antennas.
It's also common that tri-band routers have separated radios for lower
and higher part of 5 GHz band and it may be impossible to say which is
which without a DT info.
