Subject: [PATCH v2] mac80211: Tear down aggregation sessions for suspend/resume

When the driver has been notified with a STA_REMOVE, it tears down
the internal ADDBA state. On resume, trying to initiate aggregation would
fail because mac80211 has not cleared the operational state for that <TID,STA>.
This can be fixed by tearing down the existing sessions on a suspend.

Also, the driver can initiate a new BA session when suspend is in progress.
This is fixed by marking the station as being in suspend state and
denying ADDBA requests for such STAs.

Doesn't that, and the corresponding code in resume, need to be using the
rcu-safe list iteration primitives and rcu_read_lock(), or acquire the
sta_lock like the other iteration? While we should be more or less
quiescent at this point, I wouldn't really want to bet on it.

Ok.
Thanks for the review.

Ah, right, it should be rcu-protected.
Will send out a v3 tomorrow.
