This set of patches adds support for IEEE 802.11w (management frame
protection) into mac80211. It is up-to-date with the latest IEEE 802.11w
draft (D7.0) and I do not expect any major changes to IEEE 802.11w
anymore.
This version is ready to be applied into wireless-testing. It is against
wireless-testing + CSA patch from Sujith + PS patches from Johannes.
Differences to PATCH v1:
- introduce a mechanism for drivers to indicate that they are MFP capable
and allow user space programs to figure out whether MFP can be used
- mark ath9k MFP capable
- mark mac80211_hwsim MFP capable
- rebase against PS patches from Johannes (one of them allocated a new
driver hw flag that would have conflicted with an allocation for MFP)
