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.

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.

For certain sounding frames, it may be useful to report them

The current mac80211 WDS (4-address mode) can be used to cover most of the
Multi-AP requirements for Data frames per the WFA Multi-AP Specification v1.0.
When configuring AP/STA interfaces in 4-address mode, they are able to function
as fronthaul AP/backhaul STA of Multi-AP device complying below
Tx, Rx requirements except one missing STA Rx requirement added by this patch.
Multi-AP specification section 14.1 describes the following requirements:
Transmitter requirements
------------------------
1. Fronthaul AP
i) When DA!=RA of backhaul STA, must use 4-address format
ii) When DA==RA of backhaul STA, shall use either 3-address
or 4-address format with RA updated with STA MAC
(mac80211 support 4-address format via AP/VLAN interface)
2. Backhaul STA
i) When SA!=TA of backhaul STA, must use 4-address format
ii) When SA==TA of backhaul STA, shall use either 3-address
or 4-address format with RA updated with AP MAC
(mac80211 support 4-address format via use_4addr)
Receiver requirements
---------------------
1. Fronthaul AP
i) When SA!=TA of backhaul STA, must support receiving 4-address
format frames
ii) When SA==TA of backhaul STA, must support receiving both
3-address and 4-address format frames
(mac80211 support both 3-addr & 4-addr via AP/VLAN interface)
2. Backhaul STA
i) When DA!=RA of backhaul STA, must support receiving 4-address
format frames
ii) When DA==RA of backhaul STA, must support receiving both
3-address and 4-address format frames
(mac80211 support only receiving 4-address format via
use_4addr)
This patch addresses the above Rx requirement (ii) for backhaul STA to receive
unicast (DA==RA) 3-address frames in addition to 4-address frames.
The current design doesn't accept 3-address frames when configured in 4-address
mode (use_4addr). Hence add a check to allow 3-address frames when DA==RA of
backhaul STA (adhering to Table 9-26 of IEEE Std 802.11™-2016).
This case was tested with a bridged station interface when associated with
a non-mac80211 based vendor AP implementation using 3-address frames for WDS.
STA was able to support the Multi-AP Rx requirement when DA==RA. No issues,
no loops seen when tested with mac80211 based AP as well.
Verified and confirmed all other Tx and Rx requirements of AP and STA for
Multi-AP respectively. They all work using the current mac80211-WDS design.

I changed the way mac80211 updates the PM state of the peer.
I forgot that we could also have multicast frames from the
peer and that those frame should of course not change the
PM state of the peer: A peer goes to power save when it
needs to scan, but it won't send the broadcast Probe Request
with the PM bit set.
This made us mark the peer as awake when it wasn't and then
Intel's firmware would fail to transmit because the peer is
asleep according to its database. The driver warned about
this and it looked like this:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 184 at /usr/src/linux-4.16.14/drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/tx.c:1369 iwl_mvm_rx_tx_cmd+0x53b/0x860

The current implementation of cfg80211_rx_control_port assumed that the
caller could provide a contiguous region of memory for the control port
frame to be sent up to userspace. Unfortunately, many drivers produce
non-linear skbs, especially for data frames. This resulted in userspace
getting notified of control port frames with correct metadata (from
address, port, etc) yet garbage / nonsense contents, resulting in bad
handshakes, disconnections, etc.
mac80211 linearizes skbs containing management frames. But it didn't
seem worthwhile to do this for control port frames. Thus the signature
of cfg80211_rx_control_port was changed to take the skb directly.
nl80211 then takes care of obtaining control port frame data directly
from the (linear | non-linear) skb.
The caller is still responsible for freeing the skb,
cfg80211_rx_control_port does not take ownership of it.

The control packets are intercepted just prior to delivery of the packet
to the underlying network device.

over nl80211.

Only works if the IV was stripped from packets. Create a smaller
