ath9k_hw: fix a regression in key miss handling
The commit "ath9k_hw: Fix incorrect key_miss handling" changed the code
to only report key miss errors if a MIC error wasn't reported.
When checking the flags in that order in the MAC code, it might miss some
real events, because the value of the MIC error flag is undefined under
some conditions.
The primary issue addressed by the previous commit is making sure that
MIC errors are properly reported on the STA side. This can be fixed in
a better way by adding a separate rx status flag for key miss and
ignoring it for multicast frames.
This fix slightly improves stability in AP mode on some older hardware,
like AR9132.

mac80211: dont orphan TX skb
This was another workaround for truesize "bugs".
The reason we did this was that when we orphaned
the SKB it wouldn't be truesize-checked later.
Now that the check is gone (and we just charge
the former smaller size to the socket) there's
no longer a reason to orphan the skb here.
Keep the skb charged to the socket until it is
really freed (or orphaned in TX status). This
helps flow control and allows us to get at the
socket later for other purposes.

mac80211: allow out-of-band EOSP notification
iwlwifi has a separate EOSP notification from
the device, and to make use of that properly
it needs to be passed to mac80211. To be able
to mix with tx_status_irqsafe and rx_irqsafe
it also needs to be an "_irqsafe" version in
the sense that it goes through the tasklet,
the actual flag clearing would be IRQ-safe
but doing it directly would cause reordering
issues.
This is needed in the case of a P2P GO going
into an absence period without transmitting
any frames that should be driver-released as
in this case there's no other way to inform
mac80211 that the service period ended. Note
that for drivers that don't use the _irqsafe
functions another version of this function
will be required.

mac80211: explicitly notify drivers of frame release
iwlwifi needs to know the number of frames that are
going to be sent to a station while it is asleep so
it can properly handle the uCode blocking of that
station.
Before uAPSD, we got by by telling the device that
a single frame was going to be released whenever we
encountered IEEE80211_TX_CTL_POLL_RESPONSE. With
uAPSD, however, that is no longer possible since
there could be more than a single frame.
To support this model, add a new callback to notify
drivers when frames are going to be released.

mac80211: add missing station flags to debugfs
My work and some previous work didn't add
all the flags, add them now and while at it
simplify the code.

mac80211: optimise station flags
The flaglock in struct sta_info has long been
something that I wanted to get rid of, this
finally does the conversion to atomic bitops.
The conversion itself is straight-forward in
most places, a few things needed to change a
bit since we can no longer use multiple bits
at the same time.
On x86-64, this is a fairly significant code
size reduction:
