Subject: [PATCH 1/4] brcmfmac: add change_bss to support AP isolation

Hostap has a parameter "ap_isolate" which is used to prevent low-level
bridging of frames between associated stations in the BSS.
Regarding driver side, we add cfg80211 ops method change_bss to support
setting AP isolation if firmware has ap_isolate feature.

Is the cast to u32 really necessary? Please avoid casts as much as
possible.

It seems to me. struct bss_parameters::ap_isolate is typed as int. It is
passed to brcmf_fil_iovar_int_set() which requires a u32 (maybe function
name is causing the confusion).

What extra value does this explicit type casting bring here? I don't see
it. Implicit type casting would work the same, no?

The value will be -1, 0 or 1.
I will submit v2 patch that ignores doing iovar if getting
params->ap_isolate -1 and removes explicit type casting. Thanks for the
comment.

Oh, I didn't realise ap_isolate can be -1 as struct bss_parameters
didn't document that. Can someone submit a patch to fix that?

The ap_isolate -1 value in nl80211_set_bss means not to changed.I intend
to add a check of "params->ap_isolate >= 0" like
ath/wil6210/cfg80211.c does in brcmf_cfg80211_change_bss.
And I will submit another patch to revise the comment in cfg80211.h as
below. Let me know
if you concern about it.
