In order to unify the tx status path, the hw 802.11 encapsulation flag
needs to survive the trip to the tx status call.
Since we don't have any free bits in info->flags, we need to move one.
IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_NEED_TXPROCESSING is only used internally in mac80211,
and only before the call into the driver.

Currently, before being able to forward a packet between two 802.11s
nodes, both a PLINK handshake is performed upon receiving a beacon and
then later a PREQ/PREP exchange for path discovery is performed on
demand upon receiving a data frame to forward.
When running a mesh protocol on top of an 802.11s interface, like
batman-adv, we do not need the multi-hop mesh routing capabilities of
802.11s and usually set mesh_fwding=0. However, even with mesh_fwding=0
the PREQ/PREP path discovery is still performed on demand. Even though
in this scenario the next hop PREQ/PREP will determine is always the
direct 11s neighbor node.
The new mesh_nolearn parameter allows to skip the PREQ/PREP exchange in
this scenario, leading to a reduced delay, reduced packet buffering and
simplifies HWMP in general.
mesh_nolearn is still rather conservative in that if the packet destination
is not a direct 11s neighbor, it will fall back to PREQ/PREP path
discovery.
For normal, multi-hop 802.11s mesh routing it is usually not advisable
to enable mesh_nolearn as a transmission to a direct but distant neighbor
might be worse than reaching that same node via a more robust /
higher throughput etc. multi-hop path.

The requirement for mesh link metric refreshing, is that from one
mesh point we be able to send some data frames to other mesh points
which are not currently selected as a primary traffic path, but which
are only 1 hop away. The absence of the primary path to the chosen node
makes it necessary to apply some form of marking on a chosen packet
stream so that the packets can be properly steered to the selected node
for testing, and not by the regular mesh path lookup.

TX status reporting to ieee80211s is through ieee80211s_update_metric.
There are two problems about ieee80211s_update_metric:
1. The purpose is to estimate the fail probability
to a specific link. No need to restrict to data frame.
2. Current implementation does not work if wireless driver does not
pass tx_status with skb.
Fix this by removing ieee80211_is_data condition, passing
ieee80211_tx_status directly to ieee80211s_update_metric, and
putting it in both __ieee80211_tx_status and ieee80211_tx_status_ext.

As moving average is not considering fractional part, it will
get stuck at the same level after certain state. For example,
with current values, it can get stuck at 96. Fortunately the
current threshold 95%, but if it were increased to 96 or more
mesh paths would never be deactivated. Fix failure average

A fixed mpath was not quite being treated as such:
1) if a PERR frame was received, a fixed mpath was
deactivated.
2) queued path discovery for fixed mpath was potentially
being considered, changing mpath state.
3) other mpath flags were potentially being inherited when
fixing the mpath. Just assign PATH_FIXED and SN_VALID.
This solves several issues when fixing a mesh path in one
direction. The reverse direction mpath should probably
also be fixed, or root announcements at least be enabled.

When processing a PREQ or PREP it's critical to use the incoming SN. If
that is improperly done routing loops and other types of badness can
happen. But the code was always processing path messages for deactivated
paths. This path fixes that so that if we have a valid SN then we use it
to verify that it is a message we can accept. For reference the relevant
section of the standard is 13.10.8.4 which doesn't address the deactivated
path case at all.
I also included a special case for when our peer reboots or restarts
networking. This is an important case because without it there can be a
very long delay before we accept path messages from that peer. It's also a
simple case and intimately associated with processing messages for
deactivated paths so I used one patch instead of two.

The 2012 spec mentions that path SNs can be invalid when created (see
section 13.10.8.4 table 13-9) but AFAICT never talks about invalidating
SNs. Which makes sense: if we have figured out the path to a target at a
certain SN then we want to remember that fact. Failing to do so can lead
to routing loops because if we don't have a valid SN then we have no way
of knowing whether an incoming path message leads to or away from the
target.
However currently when discovery fails we zero out mpath->flags which
clears MESH_PATH_SN_VALID. This patch fixes that so that only the
discovery relevant flags are cleared.

This patch fixes a bug in hwmp_preq_frame_process where the wrong metric
can be used when forwarding a PREQ. This happens because the code uses
the same metric variable to record the value of the metric to the source
of the PREQ and the value of the metric to the target of the PREQ.
This comes into play when both reply and forward are set which happens
when IEEE80211_PREQ_PROACTIVE_PREP_FLAG is set and when MP_F_DO | MP_F_RF
is set. The original code had a special case to handle the first case
but not the second.
The patch uses distinct variables for the two metrics which makes the
code flow much clearer and removes the need to restore the original
value of metric when forwarding.
