mac80211: allow drivers to report (non-)monitor frames
Some drivers offload some frames internally (e.g. AddBa). Reporting such frames to mac80211 would only confuse MLME. However it would be useful to be able to pass such frames to monitor interfaces for sniffing purposes, e.g. when running AP + monitor. To do that allow drivers to tell mac80211 whether a given frame should be: - processed but not delivered to any monitor vif - not processed but delievered to monitor vifs only Signed-off-by: Grzegorz Bajorski <grzegorz.bajorski@tieto.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
