libertas USB: don't set surpriseremoved flag
We found a deadlock in the handling of command failures/reset conditions.
For example:
1. Two commands are in the queue.
2. The first command is sent, but causes a timeout, which kicks off an
asynchronous device reset
3. The second command is queued (but not yet sent to the hardware)
4. The device reset kicks in, causing the if_usb disconnect handler to
set the "surprise removed" flag to be set as the device disappears
from the bus. This causes lbs_thread to stop processing things
("adapter removed; waiting to die"), not processing any further
commands, leaving the second queued command "in the air", causing a
deadlock.
Fix this by removing the surpriseremoved flag setting in if_usb. I can't
see any reason why this needs to be done so early. lbs_remove_card will set
this flag at an appropriate time - i.e. after all pending commands have
been completed or cancelled, avoiding this deadlock.

Fail commands immediately when the request cannot be sent to the hardware.
This solves the following deadlock:
1. Two commands are in the queue.
2. The first command is sent, but causes a timeout, which kicks off an
asynchronous device reset
3. The second command is submitted to the device, and fails. The failure
is noted but the existing code waits for the timeout handler to take
care of the failure.
4. The device reset kicks in, causing the device "surprise removed" flag
to be set as the device disappears from the bus.
5. lbs_thread notes this and enters "adapter removed; waiting to die"
mode, without processing any further command timeouts.
While adjusting lbs thread logic to handle this situation may be one way
to fix this, it seems more practical to simplify handling of host_to_card

Commit
d83579e2a50ac68389e6b4c58b845c702cf37516 incorporated some
changes from the vendor driver that made it newly important that the
calculated hardware version correctly include the CHIP_92D bit, as all
of the IS_92D_* macros were changed to depend on it. However, this bit
was being unset for dual-mac, dual-phy devices. The vendor driver
behavior was modified to not do this, but unfortunately this change was
not picked up along with the others. This caused scanning in the 2.4GHz
band to be broken, and possibly other bugs as well.
This patch brings the version calculation logic in parity with the
vendor driver in this regard, and in doing so fixes the regression.
However, the version calculation code in general continues to be largely
incoherent and messy, and needs to be cleaned up.

cfg80211: add CONFIG_CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS
This adds CONFIG_CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS which is to
be used for features / code which require a bit of work on
the system integrator's part to ensure that the system will
still pass 802.11 regulatory certification. This option is
also usable for researchers and experimenters looking to add
code in the kernel without impacting compliant code.
We'd use CONFIG_EXPERT alone but it seems that most standard
Linux distributions are enabling CONFIG_EXPERT already. This
allows us to define 802.11 specific kernel features under a
flag that is intended by design to be disabled by standard
Linux distributions, and only enabled by system integrators
or distributions that have done work to ensure regulatory
certification on the system with the enabled features.

cfg80211: fix set_regdom() to cancel requests with same alpha2
While adding regulatory support to ath6kl I noticed that I easily
got the regulatory code confused. The way to reproduce the bug was:
1. iw reg set FI (in userspace)
2. cfg80211 calls ath6kl_reg_notify(FI)
3. ath6kl sets regdomain in firmware
4. firmware sends regdomain event to notify about the new regdomain (FI)
5. ath6kl calls regulatory_hint(FI)
And this (from FI to FI transition) confuses cfg80211 and after that I
only get "Pending regulatory request, waiting for it to be
processed...." messages and regdomain changes won't work anymore.
The reason why ath6kl calls regulatory_hint() is that firmware can change
the regulatory domain by it's own, for example due to 11d IEs. I could
of course workaround this in ath6kl but I think it's better to handle
the case in cfg80211.
The fix is pretty simple, use a different error code if the regdomain is
same and then just set the request processed so that it doesn't block new
requests.

("cfg80211: track monitor channel") and remove the
set_monitor_enabled() callback.
Due to the tracking happening in NETDEV_PRE_UP, it had
introduced bugs because the monitor interface callback
would be called before the device was started. It looks
like there's no way to fix this, and using NETDEV_PRE_UP
is broken anyway (since there's no NETDEV_UP_FAIL), so
remove all that code, track interfaces in NETDEV_UP and
also stop tracking the monitor channel in cfg80211.
This mostly reverts to before the tracking, except that
we keep the interface count tracking so that setting the
monitor channel can be rejected properly.

mac80211: tx: do not drop non-robust mgmt to non-MFP stas.
When drop_unencrypted is enabled and MFP is disabled,
non-robust management frames for not-yet associated STA are dropped.
This isn't visible as many management frames sent from the kernel
have TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT set and management frames injected
from a monitor vif have TX_CTL_INJECTED so aren't dropped.
But management frames sent from userspace via NL80211_CMD_FRAME
do not have this flag set, so are dropped.
This patch make it always accept non-robust management frames.

mac80211: restructure key selection
The "no key" case in key selection that decides
whether to drop the frame or not is impossible
to understand, restructure the code.

mac80211: add time synchronisation with BSS for assoc
Some drivers (iwlegacy, iwlwifi and rt2x00) today use the
bss_conf.last_tsf value. By itself though that value is
completely worthless since it may be ancient. What really
is needed is synchronisation between some device time and
the TSF.
To clarify this, rename bss_conf.last_tsf to sync_tsf and
add sync_device_ts which is obtained from rx_status which
gets a new field device_timestamp for this purpose. This
is intentionally not using the mactime field since that
is used for other things and in IBSS is expected to sync
with the IBSS's TSF which isn't necessarily true for the
device timestamp.
Also, since we have the information and it's useful even
before the connection has been established, give all the
timing details to the driver before authenticating.

mac80211: optimize ieee80211_rx_status struct layout
We waste a lot of space in this struct because it uses
int values where smaller ones would be sufficient. The
upcoming A-MPDU information needs some space, optimize
the struct now.

mac80211: redesign scan RX
Scan receive is rather inefficient when there are
multiple virtual interfaces. We iterate all of the
virtual interfaces and then notify cfg80211 about
each beacon many times.
Redesign scan RX to happen before everything else.
Then we can also get rid of IEEE80211_RX_IN_SCAN
since we don't have to accept frames into the RX
handlers for scanning or scheduled scanning any
more. Overall, this simplifies the code.

mac80211: track scheduled scan virtual interface
Instead of tracking whether or not we're in a
scheduled scan, track the virtual interface
(sdata) in an RCU-protected pointer to make it
usable from RX to check the MAC address.

mac80211: make scan_sdata pointer usable with RCU
Making the scan_sdata pointer usable with RCU makes
it possible to dereference it in the RX path to see
if a received frame actually matches the interface
that is scanning. This is just preparations, making
the pointer __rcu.

mac80211: fix invalid band deref building preq IEs
The function building probe-request IEs does not validate the band is
supported before dereferencing it. This can result in a panic when
all bands are traversed, as done during sched-scan start.
Warn when this happens and return an empty probe request. Also fix
sched-scan to not waste memory on unsupported bands.
