This set of patches adds support for IEEE 802.11w (management frame
protection) into mac80211. It is up-to-date with the latest IEEE 802.11w
draft (D7.0) and I do not expect any major changes to IEEE 802.11w
anymore.
This version is ready to be applied into wireless-testing.
Differences to the last RFC round:
- rebase against current wireless-testing + CSA patch from Sujith (it
is also allocating a new flag and would have conflicted with the
previous MFP patches)
- fix ieee80211_is_robust_mgmt_frame() for encrypted (on RX) frames
(must not check Category field for them since it may be encrypted)
- add a new option for CCMP hwaccel keys to allow the driver to request
management frame crypto be done in mac80211 if needed
- update ath9k to support MFP
