This introduces a debugfs file (ieee80211/phy#/hwsim/ps) that can be
used to force a simulated radio into power save mode. Following values
can be written into this file to change PS mode:
0 = power save disabled (constantly awake)
1 = power save enabled (drop all frames; do not send PS-Poll)
2 = power save enabled (send PS-Poll frames automatically to receive
buffered unicast frames); not yet fully implemented
3 = manual PS-Poll trigger (send a single PS-Poll frame)
Two different behavior for power save mode processing can be tested:
- move between modes 1 and 0 (i.e., receive all buffered frames at a
time)
- move to mode 1 and use manual PS-Poll frames (write 3 to the 'ps'
debugfs file) to fetch power save buffered frames one at a time
Mode 2 (automatic PS-Poll) does not yet parse Beacon frames, but
eventually, it should take a look at TIM IE and send PS-Poll if a
traffic bit is set for our AID.

With the addition of basic rate set and TX queue parameter
configuration and confirmation that power save buffering is
working again, mac80211 is now in state that allows AP mode to be
used without major problems. Consequently, it is time to allow this
mode to be enabled without having to patch the kernel.
AP mode requires hostapd for management frame processing and as such,
configuring this mode is only allowed through cfg80211 (not with
iwconfig and WEXT).

It was possible to trigger a kernel panic because beacon_timer may not
have been deleted in all cases when the kernel module was removed while
hostapd was still running.

skb->tail can't be meant here because it's not the same across 32/64 bit
compilations. This means there's no way the current driver can work on
64-bit architectures.

mac80211 supports multiple virtual interfaces for a single device. For
example, a managed interface (wlan0) and a monitor interface (mon0) can
exist at the same time. Thus priv->iw_mode is not sufficient to track
the wireless mode any more. The patch redefines priv->iw_mode as the
first interface mode (the same as priv->vif->type if priv->vif != NULL).
If another monitor type interface is created later, we don't change
priv->iw_mode into monitor. This way, the original interface still
works. The patch also requests mac80211 to do reassociation after we
change the Rx filter flags.
