    mac80211: disable software retry for now

    Pavel Roskin reported a problem that seems to be due to
    software retry of already transmitted frames. It turns
    out that we've never done that correctly, but due to
    some recent changes it now crashes in the TX code. I've
    added a comment in the patch that explains the problem
    better and also points to possible solutions -- which
    I can't implement right now.

I disabled software retry of failed/filtered frames
because it was broken. With the work of the previous
patches, it now becomes fairly easy to re-enable it
by adding a flag indicating that the frame shouldn't
be modified, but still running it through the transmit
handlers to populate the control information.

When mac80211 asks a driver to encrypt a frame, it
must assign the control.hw_key pointer for it to
know which key to use etc. Currently, mac80211 does
this whenever it would software-encrypt a frame.

Change the logic of this code to assign the hw_key
pointer when selecting the key, and later check it
when deciding whether to encrypt the frame or let
it be encrypted by the hardware. This allows us to
later simply skip the encryption function since it
no longer modifies the TX control.

There's no value in setting a flag that will
never be checked after this point, this seems
to be legacy code -- I think previously the
flag was used to check whether to encrypt the
frame or not. Now, however, the flag need not
be set, and setting it actually interferes if
the frame will be processed again later.

While testing the pid rate controller in mac80211_hwsim, I noticed
that once the controller reached 54 Mbit rates, it would fail to
lower the rate when necessary.  The debug log shows:

1945 186786 pf_sample 50 3534 3577 50

My interpretation is that the fixed point scaling of the target
error value (pf) is incorrect: the error value of 50 compared to
a target of 14 case should result in a scaling value of
(14-50) = -36 * 256 or -9216, but instead it is (14 * 256)-50, or
3534.

Correct this by doing fixed point scaling after subtraction.

In practice APs do not send country IE channel triplets for channels
the AP is not operating on and if they were to do so they would have
to use the regulatory extension which we currently do not process.
No AP has been seen in practice that does this though so just drop
those country IEs.

Additionally it has been noted the first series of country IE
channels triplets are specific to the band the AP sends. Propagate
the band on which the country IE was found on reject the country
IE then if the triplets are ever oustide of the band.

Although we now won't process country IE information with multiple
band information we leave the intersection work as is as it is
technically possible for someone to want to eventually process these
type of country IEs with regulatory extensions.

Country IEs triplets are getting an extra channel with

we always took the intersection between what the AP gave

This however does fix processing some Country IEs with multiple
sequential 2 GHz triplets. Since our parser and the spec mandates
all channels be monitonically increasing we would drop the IE after
noticing the second triplet begins on a channel already processed.

To make U-APSD client mode effective, we must not wake up from dynamic power
save when transmitting frames. So if dynamic power save is enabled, it needs
check the queue the transmitted packet is in and decide if we need to wake
up or not.

In a perfect world, where all packets would have correct QoS tags, U-APSD
enabled queues should not trigger wakeup from power save. But in the real
world, where very few packets have correct QoS tags, this won't work. For
example, if only voip class has U-APSD enabled and we send a packet in voip
class, but the packets we receive are in best effort class, we would receive
the packets with the legacy power save method. And that would increase
latencies too much from a voip application point of view.

The workaround is to enable U-APSD for all qeueus and still use dynamic ps
wakeup for all other queues except voip. That way we can still save power
with a voip application and not sacrifice latency. Normal traffic (in
background, best effort or video class) would still trigger wakeup from
dynamic power save.

Add Unscheduled Automatic Power-Save Delivery (U-APSD) client support. The
idea is that the data frames from the client trigger AP to send the buffered
frames with ACs which have U-APSD enabled. This decreases latency and makes it
possible to save even more power.

Driver needs to use IEEE80211_HW_UAPSD to enable the feature. The current
implementation assumes that firmware takes care of the wakeup and
hardware needing IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK is not yet supported.

Since commit "mwl8k: handle station database update for AP's sta entry

when ifconfig'ing a STA interface down.  This turns out to be due to
mwl8k_stop() being called while the work queue item that was scheduled
by mwl8k_sta_notify() to remove the STA entry for the associated AP is
still queued, and the former disables interrupts so that when the
latter eventually runs, a command completion interrupt is never seen.

Fix this by changing ieee80211_stop_device() so that the workqueue is
flushed before drv_stop() is called, instead of doing it the other way
around as is done now.  (As ->stop() is allowed to sleep, there isn't
any reason for drivers to queue work from within it.)

This enhances the way we parse country IEs to minimize
the number of regulatory rules that we create. It also fixes
our current implementation which treated country IE triplets
with only one channel as one independed regulatory rule even
though adjecent rules were also being provided.

Without this patch APs which send country IE information with
a channel triplet for each individual channel will force cfg80211
to deny HT40 operation as a regulatory rule would have been created
independently for each channel and as such configured only for
20 MHz operation.

Although 802.11n APs which send country IEs triplets in this fassion
are likely rare Benoit reports this against the Ubiquity NanoStation M5,
with Country "FR" and HT40 enabled.

Since we now have a helper which parses the triplets in intermediate

Store information elements from Beacon and Probe Response frames in
separate buffers to allow both sets to be made available through
nl80211. This allows user space applications to get access to IEs from
Beacon frames even if we have received Probe Response frames from the
BSS. Previously, the IEs from Probe Response frames would have
overridden the IEs from Beacon frames.

This feature is of somewhat limited use since most protocols include
the same (or extended) information in Probe Response frames. However,
there are couple of exceptions where the IEs from Beacon frames could
be of some use: TIM IE is only included in Beacon frames (and it would
be needed to figure out the DTIM period used in the BSS) and at least
some implementations of Wireless Provisioning Services seem to include
the full IE only in Beacon frames).

The new BSS attribute for scan results is added to allow both the IE
sets to be delivered. This is done in a way that maintains the
previously used behavior for applications that are not aware of the
