16689c7cfc hostapd: Allow ACS to be offloaded to the driver
Using QCA vendor command, allow ACS function to be offloaded to the
driver. Once channels are selected, hostapd is notified to perform OBSS
operation.

4d1e38be9e ACS: Fix number of error path issues
Especially when multiple BSSes are used with ACS, number of the error
paths were not cleaning up driver initialization properly. This could
result in using freed memory and crashing the process if ACS failed.

c3722e1241 ACS: Fix VHT20
The center segment0 calculation for VHT20 ACS was incorrect. This caused
ACS to fail with: "Could not set channel for kernel driver".

185677b74c Disable interface if ACS fails
In case of Automatic Channel Selection (ACS) failure, we do not have a
real fallback path. Interface still remains in ACS state. To reflect we
did not succeed with ACS, simply disable the interface and indicate this
to user/upper layer entity so that a suitable recovery or error
notification can be performed.

89de64c5c0 ACS: Fix VHT80 segment picking
For example, the previous implementation considered [44, 48, 52, 56] to
be a valid VHT80 channel -- which it is not. This resulted in, e.g.,
failure to start CAC when channels on overlapped segments included DFS
channels.

Add a check similar to the HT40 one to prevent that. The check is
performed this way as the ACS implementation assumes the primary channel
to be the first channel in a given segment.

20f9cb1842 hostapd: Allow ACS to deal with partial survey data
Previously ACS required valid survey data on all available channels.
This can however not be guaranteed. Instead of just failing, fall back
to the subset of channels that have valid ACS data.

Otherwise hostapd might hang doing nothing anymore. Propagate ACS

50f4f2a066 hostapd: Add Automatic Channel Selection (ACS) support
This adds ACS support to hostapd. Currently only survey-based
algorithm is available.

To use ACS you need to enable CONFIG_ACS=y in .config and use
channel=0 (or channel=acs_survey) in hostapd.conf.

For more details see wiki page [1] or comments in src/ap/acs.c.
