Subject: [PATCH v8 0/5] Additional processing in beacon updates (v8)

v8: Patches #1, #2 are new in this version which allow resetting
the interval to 0 once set to non-zero which was not possible earlier.
No functional changes to the remaining three patches from v7 here:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/list/?series=693804&state=%2A&archive=both

v7: Resolved conflicts with MLO code changes.

FILS discovery and unsolicited broadcast probe response transmissions
are configured as part of NL80211_CMD_START_AP. The configurations
may get changed whenever there is a change in beacon, e. g. when
a channel switch operation completes the new templates will be sent
by the userspace which reflects the new channel bandwidth. Process the
attributes for these features in NL80211_CMD_SET_BEACON as well.

- Replace the check for interval (for both features) with a new flag
'update' which is set only when the userspace requests an update to
the configuration. This allows the interval to be set to 0 and
templates deleted which wasn't allowed earlier as the attributes got
processed only if the interval was non-zero.
- Modify the local variable in nl80211_set_beacon() and input parameter
to rdev_change_beacon() from type struct cfg80211_beacon_data to
type struct cfg80211_ap_settings to support the new processing.
- Modify ieee80211_change_beacon() to reflect the new input parameter type.
- Modify driver specific functions pointed by change_beacon to reflect
the new input parameter type.
- Add the missing implementation in nl80211 and mac80211 to process
FILS discovery and unsolicited broadcast probe response configurations.
