The mac80211 code uses ktime_get_ts to measure the connected time.
As this uses monotonic time, it is y2038 safe on 32-bit systems,
but we still want to deprecate the use of 'timespec' because most
other users are broken.
This changes the code to use ktime_get_seconds() instead, which
avoids the timespec structure and is slightly more efficient.

For certain tests, for example replay detection, it can be useful
to be able to influence/set the PN used in outgoing packets. Make
it possible to change the TX PN in debugfs.
For now, this doesn't support TKIP since I haven't needed it, but
there's no reason it couldn't be added if necessary.
Note that this must be used very carefully: it could, for example,
be used to make "valid replays" where the PN reuse happens on a
different TID. This couldn't be done by an attacker since the TID
is protected as part of the AAD.

In case of "any" wowlan trigger, there is no reason to tear down
aggregations, as we want the device to continue working normally.
Similarly, there's no reason to tear down aggregations on resume,
as they should have been torn down on suspend if needed.
However, since the reconfiguration flow is shared with HW restart,
tear down aggregations on reconfiguration when we are not resuming.
To keep things working after non-wowlan suspend, keep clearing the

When debugging wireless powersave issues on the AP side it's quite helpful
to see our own beacons that are transmitted by the hardware/driver. However,
this is not that easy since beacons don't pass through the regular TX queues.
Preferably drivers would call ieee80211_tx_status also for tx'ed beacons
but that's not always possible. Hence, just send a copy of each beacon
generated by ieee80211_beacon_get_tim to monitor devices when they are
getting fetched by the driver.
Also add a HW flag IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_TX_STATUS that can be used by
drivers to indicate that they report TX status for beacons.

The current behavior of notifying CQM events is inconsistent:
Upon first configuration there is a cqm event with the current
status according to threshold configured, regardless of signal
stability.
When there is reconfiguration no event is sent unless there is
a significant change to the signal level according to the new
configuration.
Since the current reconfiguration behavior might cause missing
CQM events in case the current signal did not change but is on
the other side of the new threshold, fix that by resetting the
stored signal level upon reconfiguration.

The direct probe step before authentication was done mostly for
two reasons:
1) the BSS data could be stale
2) the beacon might not have included all IEs
The concern (1) doesn't really seem to be relevant any more as
we time out BSS information after about 30 seconds, and in fact
the original patch only did the direct probe if the data was
older than the BSS timeout to begin with. This condition got
(likely inadvertedly) removed later though.
Analysing this in more detail shows that since we mostly use
data from the association response, the only real reason for
needing the probe response was that the code validates the WMM
parameters, and those are optional in beacons. As the previous
patches removed that behaviour, we can now remove the direct
probe step entirely.

Queued frames aren't processed during scan, which results in an inability
to complete the BA session establishment until the scan ends. Since we
can't tx frames until the BA agreement setup is complete, it might result
in a very large latency during scan.
Fix this by allowing to process queued skbs while scanning in HW. This
should be ok since the devices which support hw scan should be able
to handle tx/rx while scanning.
During SW scan, mac80211 drops any txed frames besides probes and NDPs,
so it is still needed to delay processing of the queued frames till the
SW scan is done.

HT TDLS traffic should be protected in a non-HT BSS to avoid
collisions. Therefore, when TDLS peers join/leave, check if
protection is (now) needed and set the ht_operation_mode of
the virtual interface according to the HT capabilities of the
TDLS peer(s).
This works because a non-HT BSS connection never sets (or
otherwise uses) the ht_operation_mode; it just means that
drivers must be aware that this field applies to all HT
traffic for this virtual interface, not just the traffic
within the BSS. Document that.
