Since the commit below, cfg80211_chandef_dfs_required()
will warn if it gets a an NL80211_IFTYPE_UNSPECIFIED iftype
as explicitely written in the commit log.

ieee80211_sub_if_data.wdev.iftype which is passed to
cfg80211_chandef_dfs_required() hence resulting in the

In some cases, when the driver is already using all the channel
contexts it can handle at once, we have to do an in-place switch
(ie. we cannot afford using an extra context temporarily for the
transaction). But some drivers may not support switching the channel
context assigned to a vif on the fly (ie. without unassigning and
assigning it) while others may only work if the context is changed on
the fly, without unassigning it first.
To allow these different scenarios, add a new driver operation that
let's the driver decide how to handle an in-place switch.

Channels in 2.4GHz band overlap, this means that if we
send a probe request on channel 1 and then move to channel
2, we will hear the probe response on channel 2. In this
case, the RSSI will be lower than if we had heard it on
the channel on which it was sent (1 in this case).
The firmware / low level driver can parse the channel in
the DS IE or HT IE and compensate the RSSI so that it will
still have a valid value even if we heard the frame on an
adjacent channel. This can be done up to a certain offset.
Add this offset as a configuration for the low level driver.
A low level driver that can compensate the low RSSI in this
case should assign the maximal offset for which the RSSI
value is still valid.

The API returns a value expressed in Kbps.
Also, add the new get_expected_throughput() member

able to query the RC algorithm (this patch provides an
implementation of this API for both minstrel and
minstrel_ht).
The related member in the station_info object is now

Users may need information about the expected throughput
towards a given peer.
This value is supposed to consider the size overhead
generated by the 802.11 header.
This value is exported in kbps through the get_station() API
by including it into the station_info object.
Moreover, it is sent to user space when replying to the
nl80211 GET_STATION command.
This information will be useful to the batman-adv module

It was possible for tx queues to be stuck stopped
if AP CSA finalization failed. In that case
neither stop_ap nor do_stop woke the queues up.
This means it was impossible to perform tx at all
until driver was reloaded or a successful CSA was
performed later.
It was possible to solve this in a simpler manner
however this is more robust and future proof
(having multi-vif CSA in mind).
New sdata->csa_block_tx is introduced to keep
track of which interfaces requested tx to be
blocked for CSA. This is required because mac80211
stops all tx queues for that purpose. This means
queues must be awoken only when last tx-blocking
CSA interface is finished.
It is still possible to have tx queues stopped
after CSA failure but as soon as offending
interfaces are stopped from userspace (stop_ap or
ifdown) tx queues are woken up properly.
