Beacon report radio measurement requires reporting observed BSSs
on the channels specified in the beacon request. If the measurement
mode is set to passive or active, it requires actually performing a
scan (passive or active, accordingly), and reporting the time that
the scan was started and the time each beacon/probe was received
(both in terms of TSF of the BSS of the requesting AP). If the
request mode is table, this information is optional.
In addition, the radio measurement request specifies the channel
dwell time for the measurement.

In order to use scan for beacon report when the mode is active or
passive, add a parameter to scan request that specifies the
channel dwell time, and add scan start time and beacon received time
to scan results information.

Supporting beacon report is required for Multi Band Operation (MBO).

Previously, the status parameter to cfg80211_connect_result() was
documented as using WLAN_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED_FAILURE (1) when the real
status code for the failure is not known. This value can be used by an
AP (and often is) and as such, user space cannot distinguish between
explicitly rejected authentication/association and not being able to
even try to associate or not receiving a response from the AP.

Add a new inline function, cfg80211_connect_timeout(), to be used when
the driver knows that the connection attempt failed due to a reason
where connection could not be attempt or no response was received from
the AP. The internal functions now allow a negative status value (-1) to
be used as an indication of this special case. This results in the
NL80211_ATTR_TIMED_OUT to be added to the NL80211_CMD_CONNECT event to
allow user space to determine this case was hit. For backwards
compatibility, NL80211_STATUS_CODE with the value
WLAN_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED_FAILURE is still indicated in the event in such
a case.

Since cfg80211 maintains separate BSS table entries for APs if the same
BSSID, SSID pair is seen on multiple channels, it is possible that it
can map the current_bss to a BSS entry on the wrong channel. This
current_bss will not get flushed unless disconnected and cfg80211
reports a wrong channel as the associated channel.

Fix this by introducing a new cfg80211_connect_bss() function which is
similar to cfg80211_connect_result(), but it includes an additional
parameter: the bss the STA is connected to. This allows drivers to
provide the exact bss entry that matches the BSS to which the connection

BSSID field (Address 3) to the specified BSSID instead of the wildcard

Add the option to configure multiple 'scan plans' for scheduled scan.
Each 'scan plan' defines the number of scan cycles and the interval
between scans. The scan plans are executed in the order they were
configured. The last scan plan will always run infinitely and thus
defines only the interval between scans.
The maximum number of scan plans supported by the device and the
maximum number of iterations in a single scan plan are advertised
to userspace so it can configure the scan plans appropriately.

When scheduled scan results are received there is no way to know which
scan plan is being currently executed, so there is no way to know when
the next scan iteration will start. This is not a problem, however.
The scan start timestamp is only used for flushing old scan results,
and there is no difference between flushing all results received until
the end of the previous iteration or the start of the current one,
since no results will be received in between.

not be able to report correct values. In case of doubt I left it at
false, which is the current behaviour.

Having to say

in structures is a little bit wordy and a little bit error prone.

Instead it is possible to say:
> typedef struct {
> #ifdef CONFIG_NET_NS
>       struct net *net;
> #endif
> } possible_net_t;

And then in a header say:

> 	possible_net_t net;

Which is cleaner and easier to use and easier to test, as the
possible_net_t is always there no matter what the compile options.

Further this allows read_pnet and write_pnet to be functions in all
cases which is better at catching typos.

This change adds possible_net_t, updates the definitions of read_pnet

write_pnet uses on to have the type possible_net_t, and finally fixes
