mac80211 uses the frag list to build AMSDU. When freeing
the skb, it may not be really freed, since someone is still
holding a reference to it.
In that case, when TCP skb is being retransmitted, the
pointer to the frag list is being reused, while the data
in there is no longer valid.
Since we will never get frag list from the network stack,
as mac80211 doesn't advertise the capability, we can safely
free and nullify it before releasing the SKB.

Recently TXQ teardown was moved earlier in ieee80211_unregister_hw(),
to avoid a use-after-free of the netdev data. However, interfaces
aren't fully removed at the point, and cfg80211_shutdown_all_interfaces
can for example, TX a deauth frame. Move the TXQ teardown to the
point between cfg80211_shutdown_all_interfaces and the free of
netdev queues, so we can be sure they are torn down before netdev
is freed, but after there is no ongoing TX.

NullFunc packets should never be duplicate just like
QoS-NullFunc packets.
We saw a client that enters / exits power save with
NullFunc frames (and not with QoS-NullFunc) despite the
fact that the association supports HT.
This specific client also re-uses a non-zero sequence number
for different NullFunc frames.
At some point, the client had to send a retransmission of
the NullFunc frame and we dropped it, leading to a
misalignment in the power save state.
Fix this by never consider a NullFunc frame as duplicate,
just like we do for QoS NullFunc frames.

If the buffered broadcast queue contains packets, letting new packets bypass
that queue can lead to heavy reordering, since the driver is probably throttling
transmission of buffered multicast packets after beacons.
Keep buffering packets until the buffer has been cleared (and no client
is in powersave mode).

This fixes stale beacon-int values that would keep a netdev
from going up.
To reproduce:
Create two VAP on one radio.
vap1 has beacon-int 100, start it.
vap2 has beacon-int 240, start it (and it will fail
because beacon-int mismatch).
reconfigure vap2 to have beacon-int 100 and start it.
It will fail because the stale beacon-int 240 will be used
in the ifup path and hostapd never gets a chance to set the
new beacon interval.

Current mac80211 has provision to update tx status through
ieee80211_tx_status() and ieee80211_tx_status_ext(). But
drivers like ath10k updates the tx status from the skb except
txrate, txrate will be updated from a different path, peer stats.
Using ieee80211_tx_status_ext() in two different paths
(one for the stats, one for the tx rate) would duplicate
the stats instead.
To avoid this stats duplication, ieee80211_tx_rate_update()
is implemented.

Previous implementation of SAE authentication in infrastructure BSS was
somewhat restricting and not exactly clean way of handling the two
auth() operations. This ended up removing and re-adding the STA entry
for the AP in the middle of authentication and also messing up
authentication state tracking through the sequence of four
Authentication frames. Furthermore, this did not work if the AP ended up
sending out SAE Confirm (auth trans #2) immediately after SAE Commit
(auth trans #1) before the station had time to transmit its SAE Confirm.
Clean up authentication state handling for the SAE case to allow two
rounds of auth() calls without dropping all state between those
operations. Track peer Confirmed status and mark authentication
completed only once both ends have confirmed.
ieee80211_mgd_auth() check for EBUSY cases is now handling only the
pending association (ifmgd->assoc_data) while all pending authentication
(ifmgd->auth_data) cases are allowed to proceed to allow user space to
start a new connection attempt from scratch even if the previously
requested authentication is still waiting completion. This is needed to
avoid making SAE error cases with retries take excessive amount of time
with no means for the user space to stop that (apart from setting the
netdev down).
As an extra bonus, the end of ieee80211_rx_mgmt_auth() can be cleaned up
to avoid the extra copy of the cfg80211_rx_mlme_mgmt() call for ongoing
SAE authentication since the new ieee80211_mark_sta_auth() helper
function can handle both completion of authentication and updates to the
STA entry under the same condition and there is no need to return from
the function between those operations.

This makes it easier to conditionally replace full allocation of

Long/short preamble selection cannot be sampled separately, since it

currently not used preamble modes are not counted in the statistics,
which leads to CCK rates being sampled too often.

index where necessary.

I'm not really sure exactly _why_ I've been carrying a note
for what's probably _years_ to check that we don't do this,
but we clearly do reflect frames back to the station itself
if it sends such.
One way or the other, it's useless since the station doesn't
really need the AP to talk to itself, so suppress it.
While at it, clarify some of the logic by removing skb->data
references in favour of the destination address (pointer) we
already have separately.
