nl80211: New command for setting TX rate mask for rate control
Add a new NL80211_CMD_SET_TX_BITRATE_MASK command and related

cfg80211/mac80211: Use more generic bitrate mask for rate control
Extend struct cfg80211_bitrate_mask to actually use a bitfield mask
instead of just a single fixed or maximum rate index. This change
itself does not modify the behavior (except for debugfs files), but it
prepares cfg80211 and mac80211 for a new nl80211 command for setting
which rates can be used in TX rate control.
Since frames are now going through the rate control algorithm
unconditionally, the internal IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_RCALGO flag can now
be removed. The RC implementations can use the rate_idx_mask value to
optimize their behavior if only a single rate is enabled.
The old max_rate_idx in struct ieee80211_tx_rate_control is maintained
(but commented as deprecated) for backwards compatibility with existing
RC implementations. Once these implementations have been updated to
use the more generic rate_idx_mask, the max_rate_idx value can be
removed.

mac80211: Select lowest rate based on basic rate set in AP mode
If the basic rate set is configured to not include the lowest rate
(e.g., basic rate set = 6, 12, 24 Mbps in IEEE 802.11g mode), the AP
should not send out broadcast frames at 1 Mbps. This type of
configuration can be used to optimize channel usage in cases where
there is no need for backwards compatibility with IEEE 802.11b-only
devices.
In AP mode, mac80211 was unconditionally using the lowest rate for
Beacon frames and similarly, with all rate control algorithms that use
rate_control_send_low(), the lowest rate ended up being used for all
broadcast frames (and all unicast frames that are sent before
association). Change this to take into account the basic rate

mac80211: let cfg80211 manage auth state
mac80211 currently hangs on to the auth state by
keeping it on the work list. That can lead to
confusing behaviour like rejecting scans while
authenticated to any AP (but not yet associated.)
It also means that it needs to keep track of the
work struct while associated for when it gets
disassociated (or disassociates.)
Change this to free the work struct after the
authentication completed successfully and
allocate a new one for associating, thereby
letting cfg80211 manage the auth state. Another
change necessary for this is to tell cfg80211
about all unicast deauth frames sent to mac80211
since now it can no longer check the auth state,
but that check was racy anyway.

mac80211: introduce flush operation
We've long lacked a good confirmation that frames
have really gone out, e.g. before going off-channel
for a scan. Add a flush() operation that drivers
can implement to provide that confirmation, and use
it in a few places:
* before scanning sends the nullfunc frames
* after scanning sends the nullfunc frames, if any
* when going idle, to send any pending frames

rtl8187: remove priv->mode
It is checked in add_interface, but there it is easily replaced with
a check of priv->vif. If that information should become necessary,
it is available in vif->type anyway.
It is also checked in led_turn_on and led_turn_off, where I made the
substitutions as described above. Of course, these checks seem to
have been incorrect since the driver was using NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR
to indicate no interface rather than NL80211_IFTYPE_UNSPECIFIED.
Anyway, I think these checks may be extraneous...?
