iwlagn: explicitly program P2P QoS parameters
In P2P device mode, the device needs to have valid
QoS parameters. We currently have those because we
program parameters from any virtual interface into
all contexts, but not only do we want to get rid of
this -- it is also unpredictable since on the BSS
context we might have any parameters, and there it
might even be programmed for HT.
Explicitly program default QoS parameters into the
PAN context for P2P (the defaults are 11g but with
QoS disabled) to make device behaviour predictable.
This also helps when in a follow-up patch we will
use TX QoS parameters from mac80211 only for the
context they were meant for -- without this first
that would completely break P2P device discovery.

To resolve this situation, the messages were modified to use a new macro,

to be sent to the log provided that IWL_DEBUG is true and IWL_DL_RADIO

The problem with PSM when a hidden SSID was used was originally
reported by Juuso Oikarinen.
- When generally scanning, the AP is getting a bss entry with
a zero SSID.
- When associating, a probe-req is sent to the AP with the SSID,
and as a result a probe-response is received with the hidden
SSID in place. As a consequence, a second bss entry is created
for the AP, now with the real SSID.
- After association, mac80211 executes ieee80211_recalc_ps(),
but does not switch to powersave because the beacon-ies are missing.
As result, the STA does not ever enter PSM.
The patch merges in beacon ies of hidden bss from beacon to the probe
response, creating a consistent set of ies in place.

mac80211: simplify mesh frame queue mapping and QoS
We only need to set the skb queue twice:
1. by the netdev, on local TX.

We only need to set the qos header twice:
1. by mac80211, on local TX.
2. when putting a frame on the mpath->frame_queue
We also don't need the RA in order to set the proper queue mapping since
all mesh STAs are QoS, indicate this and do it once when the frame is
received. Also fixes an issue where the QoS header and queue mapping was not
set for unicast forwarded frames.

The 802.11s protocol has a provision to limit the rate of path requests
(PREQs) are transmitted (dot11MeshHWMPpreqMinInterval) but there was no
limit on the rate at which PREQs were being queued up. There is a valid
reason for queuing PREQs: this way we can even out PREQ bursts. But
queueing multiple PREQs for the same destination is useless.

net: add wireless TX status socket option
The 802.1X EAPOL handshake hostapd does requires
knowing whether the frame was ack'ed by the peer.
Currently, we fudge this pretty badly by not even
transmitting the frame as a normal data frame but
injecting it with radiotap and getting the status
out of radiotap monitor as well. This is rather
complex, confuses users (mon.wlan0 presence) and
doesn't work with all hardware.
To get rid of that hack, introduce a real wifi TX
status option for data frame transmissions.
This works similar to the existing TX timestamping
in that it reflects the SKB back to the socket's
error queue with a SCM_WIFI_STATUS cmsg that has
an int indicating ACK status (0/1).
Since it is possible that at some point we will
want to have TX timestamping and wifi status in a
single errqueue SKB (there's little point in not
doing that), redefine SO_EE_ORIGIN_TIMESTAMPING
to SO_EE_ORIGIN_TXSTATUS which can collect more
than just the timestamp; keep the old constant
as an alias of course. Currently the internal APIs
don't make that possible, but it wouldn't be hard
to split them up in a way that makes it possible.
Thanks to Neil Horman for helping me figure out
the functions that add the control messages.
