Some drivers require setup before being able to send
management frames in managed mode, in particular in
multi-channel cases.
Introduce API to allow the drivers to do such setup
while being able to sleep waiting for the setup to
finish in the device. This isn't possible inside the
TX call since that can't sleep.
A future patch may also restructure the TX retry to
wait for the driver to report the frame status, as
suggested by Arik in

IEEE80211_TX_MAX_RATES can be reduced from 5 to 4 as there
is no current hardware supporting a rate chain with 5 multi
rate stages (mrr), so 4 mrr stages are sufficient.
The memory that is freed within the ieee80211_tx_info struct
will be used in the upcoming Transmission Power Control (TPC)
implementation.

Implements .set_monitor_enabled(wiphy, enabled).
Notifies driver upon change of interface layout.
If only monitor interfaces become present it is
called with 2nd argument being true. If
non-monitor interface appears then 2nd argument
is false. Driver is notified only upon change.
This makes it more obvious about the fact that
cfg80211 supports single monitor channel. Once we
implement multi-channel we don't want to allow
setting monitor channel while other interface
types are running. Otherwise it would be ambiguous
once we start considering num_different_channels.

beacon_ies is needed only in order to extract the dtim
period. However, even if it's missing we can still enter
ps with dtim=1 (which also happens if the TIM ie is invalid).
Most drivers don't use conf.max_sleep_period/ps_dtim_period
anyway, and this check prevents them from entering ps if
they don't have beacon (but only probe response), even though
the beacon is not needed at all.

When CONFIG_PM is disabled, no device can possibly
support WoWLAN since it can't go to sleep to start
with. Due to this, mac80211 had even rejected the
hardware registration. By making all the code and
data for WoWLAN depend on CONFIG_PM we can promote
this runtime error to a compile-time error.
Add #ifdef around all WoWLAN code to remove it in
systems that don't need it as they never suspend.

mac80211 adds stations in HT IBSS as soon as a frame comes by,
even if the HT capabilities are not known yet (they are often

This patch changes this to update ampdu factor/density settings

commit 14bba17b "wl12xx: Propagate errors from wl1271_raw_write32"
breaks down TX in certain scenarios. wl1271_irq_locked() propagates
errors from wl1271_tx_work_locked however it may return -EBUSY
when the FW queues are full which is a legitimate case and not a
a real error. In this case a recovery is triggered by wl1271_irq
and this keeps repeating itself so TX is completely broken.
Fix it by avoiding propagating return values as errors even if they
aren't. Only bus (SDIO or SPI) ops failures would be progagated
as only these should trigger recovery.
