mac80211: redesign auth/assoc
This is the second part of the auth/assoc redesign,
the mac80211 part. This moves the auth/assoc code
out of the work abstraction and into the MLME, so
that we don't flip channels all the time etc.
The only downside is that when we are associated,
we need to drop the association in order to create
a connection to another AP, but for most drivers
this is actually desirable and the ability to do
was never used by any applications. If we want to
implement resource reservation with FT-OTA, we'd
probably best do it with explicit R-O-C in wpa_s.

cfg80211: stop tracking authenticated state
To track authenticated state seems to have been
a design mistake in cfg80211. It is possible to
have out of band authentication (FT), tracking
multiple authentications caused more problems
than it ever helped, and the implementation in
mac80211 is too complex.
Remove all this complexity, and let userspace
do whatever it wants to, mac80211 can deal with
that just fine. Association is still tracked of
course, but authentication no longer is. Local
auth state changes are thus no longer of value,
so ignore them completely.
This will also help implement SAE -- asking the
driver to do an authentication is now almost
equivalent to sending an authentication frame,
with the exception of shared key authentication
which is still handled completely.

The first mail thread, which was on LKML (http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/

Pass mwifiex_private pointer directly to wmm_add_buf_txqueue()
instead of passing adapter and then deriving priv again in
mwifiex_get_priv_by_id(). This reduces a 'for' loop in TX path.

{nl,cfg,mac}80211: Add support of setting non-forwarding entity in Mesh
A mesh node that joins the mesh network is by default a forwarding entity. This patch allows
the mesh node to set as non-forwarding entity. Whenever dot11MeshForwarding is set to 0, the
mesh node can prevent itself from forwarding the traffic which is not destined to him.

iwlwifi: fix PCI-E transport "inta" race
When an interrupt comes in, we read the reason
bits and collect them into "trans_pcie->inta".
This happens with the spinlock held. However,
there's a bug resetting this variable -- that
happens after the spinlock has been released.
This means that it is possible for interrupts
to be missed if the reset happens after some
other interrupt reasons were already added to
the variable.
I found this by code inspection, looking for a
reason that we sometimes see random commands
time out. It seems possible that this causes
such behaviour, but I can't say for sure right
now since it happens extremely infrequently on
my test systems.

__ieee80211_recalc_idle() iterates through the vifs,
sets bss_conf.idle = true if they are disconnected,
and increases "count" if they are not (which later
gets evaluated in order to determine whether the
device is idle).
However, the loop doesn't set bss_conf.idle = false
(along with increasing "count"), causing the device
idle state and the vif idle state to get out of sync
in some cases.

If only one target is found, it will be auto-activated.
If more than one target is found, then DISCOVER_NTF will be

NFC: NFC core layer should not set the target_idx
The NFC core layer should not set the target_idx.
Instead, the driver layer (e.g. NCI, PN533) should set the
target_idx, so that it will be able to identify the target
when its I/F (e.g. activate_target) is called.
This is required in order to support multiple targets.
Note that currently supported drivers (PN533 and NCI) don't
use the target_idx in their implementation.
