Somebody noticed this problem, and I outlined
to them how to fix it, but haven't heard back
from them. So while I was adding the state
field I figured I could use it to fix it.
The problem, as I understand it, is that when
we go offchannel while the driver has a queue
stopped, the driver will likely start draining
the queue and then enable it while offchannel.
This in turn will enable the interface queue,
and that leads to transmitting data frames on
the wrong channel.
Fix this by keeping track of offchannel status
per interface, and not enabling the interface
queues on interfaces that are offchannel when
the driver enables a queue.

Add support to mac80211 for changing the interface
type even when the interface is UP, if the driver
supports it.
To achieve this
* add a new driver callback for switching,
* split some of the interface up/down code out
into new functions (do_open/do_stop), and
* maintain an own __SDATA_RUNNING bit that will
not be set during interface type, so that any
other code doesn't use the interface.

The libertas_tf special code for zero addresses
is a bit too complex, it compares against a stack

tries to update all interfaces even if just the

Additionally, the repeated check for a valid MAC

There's a lot of redundant code in mac80211's
interface cleanup/down, for example freeing
AP beacons is done both when the interface is
set DOWN as well as when it is torn down, of
which only the former has any effect.
Also, a bunch of things should be closer to
where they matter, like the MLME timers that
we should cancel when disassociating, rather
than only when the interface is set DOWN.

The ieee80211_scan_completed() function was a frequent
source of potential deadlocks, since it is called by
drivers but may call back into drivers, so drivers had
to make sure to call it without any locks held, which

During initialization each driver reads the default TX power
for each individual channel. However mac80211 only accepts the
maximum value (which is also handled as default value).
As a result, the TX power of the device was being limited to
the default value, which is often quite low compared to the
real maximum acceptable value.
This patch allows each driver to set the maximum value on a
per-channel basis which is forwarded to mac80211. The default
value will be preserved for now, in case we want to update
mac80211 to differentiate between the maximum and default txpower.
This fixes bug complaining about limited TX power values like:

write_tx_desc shouldn't pass a rt2x00dev and skb pointer,
instead it should use the same format as other TX frame
callback functions, which is passing the data_entry pointer
which contains all the information which is needed to work
on a TX frame.
Most callers of the kick_tx_queue and kill_tx_queue already
have the data_queue pointer, so rather then sending the QID
with the given function, when the driver requests a new
pointer to the data_queue, it is more efficient to just
send the data_queue pointer directly.
