3b7ea88047 nl80211: Make MLME failure messages unique
Without this, it is impossible to tell exactly which
MLME code returned the error.

Also, convert to wpa_dbg so that we get device names
in the messages.

577db0aedd Prefer 5 GHz networks over 2.4 GHz networks
In scan.c, merge a channel's noise value into the scan results. When
comparing scan results, compute the signal-to-noise ratio and use it
when available. Prefer a 5 GHz network if its SNR is really big (> 30)
or if its SNR is relatively close to the other network's.

b3af99d202 nl80211: Disable IEEE 802.11b rates only for P2P iftypes
Instead of hardcoding IEEE 802.11b rates to be disabled whenever
P2P support is built in and supported by the driver, do this only
when an interface is set to P2P mode (both when adding a new
interface and when changing the interface mode). This re-enables
use of IEEE 802.11b APs with CONFIG_P2P=y builds.

97bcd562eb Remove disable_11b_rates() driver_ops
This function was used unconditionally if wpa_supplicant build
includes CONFIG_P2P=y. Adding a separate driver_ops for such use
is not really useful since the driver wrappers can do the same
internally. Remove this driver_ops and move matching functionality
into driver_nl80211.c which was the only driver wrapper using
this driver_ops callback.

1dea5882be nl80211: Fix re-enabling of 802.11b rates
nl80211_disable_11b_rates() function was supposed to use the 'disabled'
parameter to figure out whether to disable or re-enable 802.11b rates.
In addition, the driver deinit path was now ending up re-disabling the
enabled rates at the end of the deinit operations when the interface
type was forced back to station. Both of these issues are now fixed
and the 2.4 GHz band TX rate index is cleared properly when
wpa_supplicant is stopped.

59d249255c nl80211: Ignore netlink interface down if interface is up
The netlink event processing is delayed since they are only returned
after control returns to eloop. This can result in netlink down events
being processed at a point when the interface has is actually still
there (the first event on new interface is down) and that can result in
odd behavior especially when the resulting interface-disabled event is
delivered to AP mode interface with wpa_supplicant.

Work around this by filtering netlink down events if the matching
interface is up at the time the netlink event is processed. This fixes
an issue brought up by commit 36d84860bb.

45b722f150 TDLS: Add peer as a STA during link setup
Before commencing setup, add a new STA entry to the driver representing
the peer. Later during setup, update the STA entry using information
received from the peer.

Extend sta_add() callback for adding/modifying a TDLS peer entry and
connect it to the TDLS state machine. Implement this callback for the
nl80211 driver and send peer information to kernel.

Mark TDLS peer entries with a new flag and translate it to a
corresponding nl80211 flag in the nl80211 driver.

In addition, correct TDLS related documentation in the wpa_driver_ops
structure.

Remove the separate driver_ops functions set_cts_protect(),

compatibility period with the old functions.

Interface name reaches the "IFNAMSIZ" limit. Monitor interface name is

before P2P Interface name. Rename the monitor interface name to

531f0331a1 nl80211: Cancel not yet started r-o-c
Currently, the following can happen:

1) P2P state machine requests R-O-C
2) user changes their mind and aborts
3) P2P state machine aborts R-O-C
4) driver_nl80211 rejects abort since there
   was no notification about the start yet
5) R-O-C period start notification from kernel
6) P2P state machine requests new R-O-C
7) this overlaps with old R-O-C -- iwlwifi driver
   can't handle that and returns -EBUSY
8) state machine stops dead in its tracks

The reason is that the abort isn't going through properly. Instead of
tracking whether a R-O-C is active in driver_nl80211, track whether one
was requested to avoid this scenario.
