In WoWLAN, devices may use crypto keys for TX/RX
and could also implement GTK rekeying. If the
driver isn't able to retrieve replay counters and
similar information from the device upon resume,
or if the device isn't responsive due to platform
issues, it isn't safe to keep the connection up
as GTK rekey messages from during the sleep time
could be replayed against it.
The only protection against that is disconnecting
from the AP. Modifying mac80211 to do that while
it is resuming would be very complex and invasive
in the case that the driver requires a reconfig,
so do it after it has resumed completely. In that
case, however, packets might be replayed since it
can then only happen after TX/RX are up again, so
mark keys for interfaces that need to disconnect
as "tainted" and drop all packets that are sent
or received with those keys.

The current rx->queue value is slightly confusing.
It is set to 16 on non-QoS frames, including data,
and then used for sequence number and PN/IV checks.
Until recently, we had a TKIP IV checking bug that
had been introduced in 2008 to fix a seqno issue.
Before that, we always used TID 0 for checking the
PN or IV on non-QoS packets.
Go back to the old status for PN/IV checks using
the TID 0 counter for non-QoS by splitting up the
rx->queue value into "seqno_idx" and "security_idx"
in order to avoid confusion in the future. They
each have special rules on the value used for non-
QoS data frames.
Since the handling is now unified, also revert the
special TKIP handling from my patch
"mac80211: fix TKIP replay vulnerability".

same time move them from mask+shift to just

Currently the devices that have already stripped IEEE 802.11
header from the AMSDU SKB can not use ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s
routine. This patch enhances ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s() API by
changing mandatory removing of IEEE 802.11 header from AMSDU
to optional.

Implement support for HW scheduled scan. The mac80211 code doesn't perform
scheduled scans itself, but calls the driver to start and stop scheduled
scans.
This patch also creates a trace event class to be used by drv_hw_scan
and the new drv_sched_scan_start and drv_sched_stop functions, in
order to avoid duplicate code.

Currently, mac80211 handles MIC failures differently
depending on whenever they are detected by the stack's
own software crypto or when are handed down from the
driver.
This patch tries to unify both by moving the special
branch out of mac80211 rx hotpath and into into the
software crypto part. This has the advantage that we
can run a few more sanity checks on the data and verify
if the key type was TKIP. This is very handy because
several devices generate false postive MIC failure
reports. Like carl9170, ath9k and wl12xx:

The release timer has to expire "just" after a
frame is up for release. Currently, if the timer
callback starts on time, the "!time_after" check
above will start a new timer instead of
releasing the frames.

Suppose the aggregation reorder buffer looks like this:
x-T-R1-y-R2,
where x and y are frames that have not been received, T is a received
frame that has timed out, and R1,R2 are received frames that have not
yet timed out. The proper behavior in this scenario is to move the
window past x (skipping it), release T and R1, and leave the window at y
until y is received or R2 times out.
As written, this code will instead leave the window at R1, because it
has not yet timed out. Fix this by exiting the reorder loop only when
the frame that has not timed out AND there are skipped frames earlier in
the current valid window.

The flag isn't very descriptive -- the intention
is that the driver provides a TSF timestamp at
the beginning of the MPDU -- make that clearer
by renaming the flag to RX_FLAG_MACTIME_MPDU.
