It doesn't seem likely, but maybe possible, that the
more-data bit needs to be recomputed due to changes
in the queued frames. Clear it for filtered frames
to ensure that we never send it incorrectly. It'll
be set again as necessary when we retransmit this
frame.
The more likely case is maybe where the station woke
up after the filtered frame in which case more-data
should be clear when the frame is transmitted to the
station since it is now awake.

For uAPSD support we'll need to have per-AC PS
buffers. As this is a major undertaking, split
the buffers before really adding support for
uAPSD. This already makes some reference to the
uapsd_queues variable, but for now that will
never be non-zero.
Since book-keeping is complicated, also change
the logic for keeping a maximum of frames only
and allow 64 frames per AC (up from 128 for a
station).

mac80211 will expire normal PS-buffered frames, but
if the device rejected some frames for a sleeping
station, these won't be on the ps_tx_buf queue but
on the tx_filtered queue instead; this is done to
avoid reordering.
However, mac80211 will not expire frames from the
filtered queue, let's fix that.
Also add a more comments to what all this expiry is
doing and how it works.

Currently, the TIM bit for a given station is set
and cleared all over the place. Since the logic to
set/clear it will become much more complex when we
add uAPSD support, as a first step let's collect
the entire logic in one place. This requires a few
small adjustments to other places.

For uAPSD implementation, it is necessary to know on
which ACs frames are buffered. mac80211 obviously
knows about the frames it has buffered itself, but
with aggregation many drivers buffer frames. Thus,
mac80211 needs to be informed about this.
For now, since we don't have APSD in any form, this
will unconditionally set the TIM bit for the station
but later with uAPSD only some ACs might cause the
TIM bit to be set.
ath9k is the only driver using this API and I only
modify it in the most basic way, it won't be able
to implement uAPSD with this yet. But it can't do
that anyway since there's no way to selectively
release frames to the peer yet.
Since drivers will buffer frames per TID, let them
inform mac80211 on a per TID basis, mac80211 will
then sort out the AC mapping itself.

Mark the STA entries of enabled TDLS peers with a new "peer authorized"
flag.
During link setup, allow special TDLS setup frames through the AP, but
otherwise drop all packets destined to the peer. This is required by the
TDLS (802.11z) specification in order to prevent reordering of MSDUs
between the AP and direct paths.
When setup completes and the peer is authorized, send data directly,
bypassing the AP.
In the Rx path, allow data to be received directly from TDLS peers.

our operating mode is appropriate (managed).
In addition, make sure all peers are removed on disassociation.
A TDLS peer is first added just before link setup is initiated. In later
setup stages we have more info about peer supported rates, capabilities,
etc. This info is reported via nl80211_set_station().

Register and implement the TDLS cfg80211 callback functions.
Internally prepare and send TDLS management frames. We incorporate
local STA capabilities and supported rates with extra IEs given by
usermode. The resulting packet is either encapsulated in a data frame,
or assembled as an action frame. It is transmitted either directly or
through the AP, as mandated by the TDLS specification.
Declare support for the TDLS external setup wiphy capability. This
tells usermode to handle link setup and discovery on its own, and use the

The new connection parameters now match the recommended values for
Proximity and Health Thermometer profiles. The previous values were
ramdomly chosen, and are either too low or too high for most cases.
New values:
Scan Interval: 60 ms
Scan Window: 30 ms
Minimum Connection Interval: 50 ms
Maximum Connection Interval: 70 ms
Supervision Timeout: 420 ms
See "Table 5.2: Recommended Scan Interval and Scan Window Values" and
"Table 5.3: Recommended Connection Interval Values" for both profiles
for details. Note that the "fast connection" parameters were chosen,
because we do not support yet dynamically changing these parameters from
initiator side.
Additionally, the Proximity profile recommends (section "4.4 Alert on
Link Loss"):
"It is recommended that the Link Supervision Timeout (LSTO) is set to 6x
the connection interval."

Removed tests which prevent transmission of ACL packets
when the device is in HCI_RAW mode. These tests verified that
there are ACL or LE links currently tracked by the HCI
connection manager. However, a HCI_RAW mode device does not
use the connection manager. In these circumstances, the connection
counts will be zero, and thus, transmitted ACL packets dropped.
The acl_num test is actually a vestige of a previous bulk URB
scheme that is no longer used by this driver (bulk URBs were not
started until at least one ACL connection was created). This was
incompatible with some endpoint implementations and was dropped -
see commit 43c2e57f94.
The utility of these tests is marginal - currently, the hci tx
scheduler cannot send an ACL or LE packet for an untracked connection
(except if the device is in HCI_RAW mode).
Lastly, no other transport layer driver enforces these same tests.
