Subject: [PATCH v1] cfg80211/nl80211: Add support for NL80211_STA_INFO_RX_DURATION

From: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <[email protected]>

Add support for new netlink attribute 'NL80211_STA_INFO_RX_DURATION'
This flag will be set when drivers can fill rx_duration (vendor
specific total air time(usecs) for data/management frames from the
connected client) via 'drv_sta_statistics' callback

Also make sta_info flags 'filled' as 64 bit to accommodate for new
per station stats. Extend 'PUT_SINFO' for supporting rx_duration
field and any new per sta information in future

[v1]
1. Fixed typo for accommodate
2. changed the doc for rx_duration as 'vendor specific implementation'

No, I want it defined for all cases, not left undefined.

[shafi] correction (made it all frames (not only data/management frames)

"@rx_duration: approximate total air time(usecs) for all frames
from the connected client "

[shafi] Let me know if the below documentation is fine with you please

"@rx_duration: approximate total air time(usecs) for all data/management
frames from the connected client "

thanks for reviewing this and Jouni for his initial suggestions.
