Also, while at it, remove a useless macro (IEEE80211_ALIGN32_PAD)
and a function prototype for a function we don't actually have
(ieee80211_set_compression.)

Because we queue the sta-debugfs-adding work on our mac80211
workqueue (which needs to be flushed under RTNL) and that work
needs the RTNL, it can currently deadlock, thanks to Reinette
Chatre for pointing out the lockdep warning about this.
This patch fixes it by moving this work to the common kernel
workqueue (using schedule_work) and canceling it as appropriate.
It also fixes a related problem: When a STA is pinned by the
debugfs adding work and sta_info_flush() runs concurrently
it is not guaranteed that all STAs are removed from the driver
before the corresponding interface is removed which may lead
to bugs.

This reverts commit 6c4711b469.
That patch breaks mesh config comparison between beacons/probe reponses, so
every beacon from a mesh network would be added as a new bss. Since the
comparison has to be performed for every received beacon I believe it is best to
save the mesh config in a format easy to compare, rather than do a bunch of
unaligned accesses to compare field by field.

When the IBSS code tries to flush the STA list, it does so in
an atomic context. Flushing isn't safe there, however, and
requires the RTNL, so we need to defer it to a workqueue.

Calling sta_info_destroy() doesn't require RCU-synchronisation
before-hand because it does that internally. However, it does
require rtnl-locking so insert that where necessary.
Also clean up the code doing it internally to be a bit clearer and
not synchronize twice if keys are configured.

When STA structure insertion fails, it has been allocated but isn't
really alive yet, it isn't reachable by any other code and also can't
yet have much configured. This patch changes the code so that when
the insertion fails, the resulting STA pointer is no longer valid
because it is freed.

sta_info_destroy(NULL) should be valid, but currently isn't because
the argument is dereferenced before the NULL check. There are no
users that currently pass in NULL, i.e. all check before calling the
function, but I want to change that.

ieee80211_sta_work is disabled while network interface
is down. Therefore, if you configure wireless parameters
before bringing the interface up, these configurations are
not yet effective and association fails.
A workaround from userspace is calling a command like
'iwconfig wlan0 ap any' after the interface is brought up.
To fix this behaviour, trigger execution of ieee80211_sta_work from
ieee80211_open when in STA or IBSS mode.

This patch reorders some fields in various structures to have
less padding within the structures, making them smaller. It
doesn't yet make any type adjustments, but often size_t is used
for example for IE lengths which is total overkill since size_t
will be 8 bytes long on 64-bit yet the length can at most fill
a u8.

This patch alters the A-MPDU MLME in sta_info to use dynamic allocation,
thus drastically improving memory usage - from a constant ~2 Kbyte in
the previous (static) allocation to a lower limit of ~200 Byte and an upper
limit of ~2 Kbyte.
