Refactor the parsing of monitor flags and the MU-MIMO options.
This will allow adding more things cleanly in the future and
also allows setting the latter already when creating a monitor
interface.

Instead passing both flags, which can be NULL, and vif_params,
which are never NULL, move the flags into the vif_params and
use BIT(0), which is invalid from userspace, to indicate that
the flags were changed.
While updating all drivers, fix a small bug in wil6210 where
it was setting the flags to 0 instead of leaving them unchanged.

The MU-MIMO monitor follow functionality is broken because it
doesn't clear the MU-MIMO owner even if both follow features
are disabled. Fix that, and while at it move the code into a
new helper function. Call this also when creating a new monitor
interface to prepare for an upcoming cfg80211 change allowing
that.

When changing monitor parameters, not setting the MU-MIMO attributes
should mean that they're not changed - it's documented that to turn
the feature off it's necessary to set all-zero group membership and
an invalid follow-address. This isn't implemented.
Fix this by making the parameters pointers, stop reusing the macaddr
struct member, and documenting that NULL pointers mean unchanged.

Instead of dropping such frames only when removing the
monitor info, drop them earlier (keeping the warning)
and simplify removing monitor info. While at it, make
that function return void.

When clang detects a non-boolean constant in a logical operation it
generates a 'constant-logical-operand' warning. In
ieee80211_try_rate_control_ops_get() the result of strlen(<const str>)
is used in a logical operation, clang resolves the expression to an
(integer) constant at compile time when clang's builtin strlen function
is used.
Change the condition to check for strlen() > 0 to make the constant
operand boolean and thus avoid the warning.

Enhance nl80211 and cfg80211 connect request and response APIs to
support FILS shared key authentication offload. The new nl80211
attributes can be used to provide additional information to the driver
to establish a FILS connection. Also enhance the set/del PMKSA to allow
support for adding and deleting PMKSA based on FILS cache identifier.
Add a new feature flag that drivers can use to advertize support for
FILS shared key authentication and association in station mode when
using their own SME.

Currently the connect event from driver takes all the connection
response parameters as arguments. With support for new features these
response parameters can grow. Use a structure to pass these parameters
rather than passing them as function arguments.

On some practical cases, it is useful to drop new node in the distance.
Because mesh metric is calculated with hop count and without RSSI
information, a node far from local peer and near to destination node
could be used as best path.
For example, the nodes are located in linear. Distance of 0 - 1 and
1 - 2 and 2 - 3 is 20meters. 0 to 3 signal is very weak.
0 --- 1 --- 2 --- 3
Though most robust path from 0 to 3 is 0 -> 1 -> 2 -> 3,
unfortunately, node 0 could recognize node 3 as neighbor. Then node 3
could be next of node 0. This patch aims to avoid such a case.
[Johannes:]
Dropping the node entirely isn't ideal, but at least with encryption
there will be a limit on # of keys the hardware can deal with, and
there might also be a limit on the number of stations it supports.

When a wdev changes network namespace, its wdev ID will get
reassigned since NETDEV_REGISTER is called again, in the new
network namespace. Avoid that by checking if it was already
assigned before, and document why we do that.

If the user rate mask results in no (basic) rates being usable,
clear it. Also, if we're already operating when it's set, reject
it instead.
Technically, selecting basic rates as the criterion is a bit too
restrictive, but calculating the usable rates over all stations
(e.g. in AP mode) is harder, and all stations must support the
basic rates. Similarly, in client mode, the basic rates will be
used anyway for control frames.
This fixes the "no supported rates (...) in rate_mask ..." warning
that occurs on TX when you've selected a rate mask that's not
compatible with the connection (e.g. an AP that enables only the
rates 36, 48, 54 and you've selected only 6, 9, 12.)

There isn't really much harm in not ignoring, since it doesn't
represent a valid rate, but since we already ignore the HT one
also ignore VHT. Also simplify the code a bit.

Sharing DFS channel state across multiple wiphys (radios) could
be useful with multiple radios on the system. When one radio
completes CAC and markes the channel available another radio
can use this information and start beaconing without really doing
CAC.
Whenever there is a state change in dfs channel associated to
a particular wiphy the the same state change is propagated to
other wiphys having the same DFS reg domain configuration.
Also when a new wiphy is created the dfs channel state of
other existing wiphys of same DFS domain is copied.

For non-ETSI regulatory domain, CAC result on DFS channel
may not be valid once moving out of that channel (as done
during remain-on-channel, scannning and off-channel tx).
Running CAC on an operating DFS channel after every off-channel
operation will only add complexity and disturb the current
link. Better do not allow any off-channel switch from a DFS
operating channel in non-ETSI domain.

DFS requirement for ETSI domain (section 4.7.1.4 in
ETSI EN 301 893 V1.8.1) is the only one which explicitly
states that once DFS channel is marked as available afer
the CAC, this channel will remain in available state even
moving to a different operating channel. But the same is
not explicitly stated in FCC DFS requirement. Also, Pre-CAC
requriements are not explicitly mentioned in FCC requirement.
Current implementation in keeping DFS channel in available
state is same as described in ETSI domain.
For non-ETSI DFS domain, this patch gives a grace period of 2 seconds
since the completion of successful CAC before moving the channel's
DFS state to 'usable' from 'available' state. The same grace period
is checked against the channel's dfs_state_entered timestamp while
deciding if a DFS channel is available for operation. There is a new
radar event, NL80211_RADAR_PRE_CAC_EXPIRED, reported when DFS channel
is moved from available to usable state after the grace period. Also
make sure the DFS channel state is reset to usable once the beaconing
operation on that channel is brought down (like stop_ap, leave_ibss
and leave_mesh) in non-ETSI domain.

Currently, hwsim is reporting survey data (only a fake noise floor)
for the current channel. This breaks when the multi-channel support
is enabled since then there's no current channel.
Make the dummy implementation closer to a real one and only report
data while scanning, for all the scanned channels. At other times,
no survey data might be available (in real hardware) due to power-
save for example.
