mac80211: fix broadcast frame handling for 4-addr AP VLANs
Without this patch, broadcast frames from the station behind a

Fix this by checking the 4-addr flag before bridging multicast

cfg80211: return channel noise via survey API
This patch implements the NL80211_CMD_GET_SURVEY command and an get_survey()
ops that a driver can implement. The goal of this command is to allow a
drivers to report channel survey data (e.g. channel noise, channel
occupation).
For now, only the mechanism to report back channel noise has been
implemented.
In future, there will either be a survey-trigger command --- or the existing
scan-trigger command will be enhanced. This will allow user-space to
request survey for arbitrary channels.
Note: any driver that cannot report channel noise should not report
any value at all, e.g. made-up -92 dBm.

ath9k: handle low buffer space for virtual wiphys
ath9k virtual wiphys all share the same internal buffer space
for TX but they do not share the mac80211 skb queues. When
ath9k detects it is running low on buffer space to TX it tells
mac80211 to stop sending it skbs its way but it always does
this only for the primary wiphy. This means mac80211 won't know
its best to avoid sending ath9k more skbs on a separate virtual
wiphy. The same issue is present for reliving the skb queue.
Since ath9k does not keep track of which virtual wiphy is hammering
on TX silence all wiphy's TX when we're low on buffer space. When
we're free on buffer space only bother informing the virtual wiphy
which is active that we have free buffers.

The way idle configuration detection was implemented as
busted due to the fact that it assumed the ath9k virtual wiphy,
the aphy, would be marked as inactive if it was not used but
it turns out an aphy is always active if its the only wiphy
present. We need to distinguish between aphy activity and
idleness so we now add an idle bool for the aphy and mark
it as such based on the passed IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE
from mac80211.
Previous to all_wiphys_idle would never be true when using
only one device so we never really were using
IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE -- we never turned the radio
off or on upon IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE changes as radio

turn the radio on or off. Since it was always false for

mac80211: implement support for 4-address frames for AP and client mode
In some situations it might be useful to run a network with an
Access Point and multiple clients, but with each client bridged
to a network behind it. For this to work, both the client and the
AP need to transmit 4-address frames, containing both source and
destination MAC addresses.
With this patch, you can configure a client to communicate using
only 4-address frames for data traffic.
On the AP side you can enable 4-address frames for individual
clients by isolating them in separate AP VLANs which are configured
in 4-address mode.
Such an AP VLAN will be limited to one client only, and this client
will be used as the destination for all traffic on its interface,
regardless of the destination MAC address in the packet headers.
The advantage of this mode compared to regular WDS mode is that it's
easier to configure and does not require a static list of peer MAC
addresses on any side.

Wakeup interrupt has been updating write pointers (indexes, actually) only

iwlwifi: speed up event log dumps
Take advantage of device's auto-increment for SRAM reads to eliminate extra
write address accesses.
Grab/release NIC access before/after entire read sequence, rather than for
each read individually.
After a quick check of dmesg logs, this seems to double Event Log dump speed,
reducing from about 20 milliseconds to about 10 milliseconds for 512 entries
using 3945.

iwlwifi: Limit size of Event Log dump
If device provides bad values for Event Log parameters (due to being asleep
or SRAM corruption, etc.), the size can be very, very large (e.g. 0xa5a5a5a5),
which can flood system log.
Sanity-check capacity and next_entry values and limit to reasonable size dump.
