have a way to set the minimum dump size globally, and we

the size only when needed, as described in the comments.

nl80211: remove radar information

The wiphy information is getting very close to being too
much for a typical netlink dump message and adding the
radar attributes to channels and interface combinations
can push it over the limit, which means userspace gets no
information whatsoever. Therefore, remove these again for
now, no driver actually supports radar detection anyway
and a modified userspace is required as well.

We're working on a solution that will allow userspace to
request splitting the information across multiple netlink
messages, which will allow us to add this back.

The reason is a problem with asynchronous vs. synchronous

 * TE 0x2601 is removed, the TIME_EVENT_CMD for that is async
 * a new TE (will be 0x2701) is created, the TIME_EVENT_CMD
   for that is sync and also uses a notification wait for the
   response (to avoid another race condition)
 * the response for the TE 0x2601 removal comes from the
   firmware, and is handled by the notification wait handler
   that's really waiting for the second response, but can't
   tell the difference, we therefore see the message
   "TIME_EVENT_CMD response - UID = 0x2601" instead of
   "TIME_EVENT_CMD response - UID = 0x2701".

Fix this issue by making the TE removal synchronous as well,
this means that we wait for the response to that command
first, before there's any chance of sending a new one.

Also, to detect such issues more easily in the future, add
a warning to the notification handler that detects them.

mac80211: always unblock CSA queue stop when disconnecting

In some cases when disconnecting after (or during?) CSA
the queues might not recover, and then the only way to
recover is reloading the module.

Fix this by always unblocking the queue CSA reason when

bss_info_changed() for the driver's monitor interface,
which causes a crash for iwlwifi, but drivers generally
don't expect this to happen. Therefore, avoid it.

While at it, also prevent calling it in such cases and
only print a warning. For the P2P Device interface the
idle will no longer be called (no channel context), so
also prevent that and warn on it.

mac80211: fix auth/assoc timeout handling

In my commit 1672c0e31917f49d31d30d79067103432bc20cc7
("mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame status")
I broke auth/assoc timeout handling: in case we wait
for the TX status, it now leaves the timeout field set
to 0, which is a valid time and can compare as being
before now ("jiffies"). Thus, if the work struct runs
for some other reason, the auth/assoc is treated as
having timed out.

Fix this by introducing a separate "timeout_started"
variable that tracks whether the timeout has started
and is checked before timing out.

Additionally, for proper TX status handling the change
requires that the skb->dev pointer is set up for all
the frames, so set it up for all frames in mac80211.

mac80211: fix WPA with VLAN on AP side with ps-sta

When sending a broadcast while at least on of the connected stations is
sleeping, it gets queued and send after a DTIM beacon is sent.
If the packet was to be sent on a vlan interface, the vif used for dequeing
from the per-bss queue does not hold the per-vlan sdata. The correct sdata is

This patch fixes this by restoring the per-vlan sdata using the skb->dev entry.
