Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] nl80211: FILS discovery/bcast probe resp support

This patch adds new attribute, NL80211_ATTR_FD_BCASTPRESP_CFG
to configure FILS discovery and broadcast probe response in 6GHz
for in-band discovery.

Only one of the two is active at a time to reduce broadcast
packets over the air.

Maximum packet interval can be 20 TUs.
Packet interval set to 0 disables FILS discovery and broadcast
probe response transmission.

huh? what is reported. Oh, guess it is the reason for having v2. Don't
think this tag is useful for that. Only useful if v1 would have been
applied and this patch would fix that.

This is not really beacon data, now is it?

Yeah, that's a bit confusing. OTOH, they do like to be credited for the
fixes too ... Maybe that should then be "Co-developed-by" ;-)

I really don't know a good solution to this, but would probably drop the
tag(s).

Well, neither is the probe_resp template :)

I guess we should rename this to ... cfg80211_beaconing_data? I dunno. I
mean, this thing is for beaconing and related things, and can be swapped
during runtime for a new beacon/config.

So that seems OK. However, Dan found an issue, so please respin.
