mac80211: clean up association better in suspend
When suspending, bss_info_changed() is called to
disable beacons, but managed mode interfaces are
simply removed (bss_info_changed() is called with
"no change" only). This can lead to problems.
To fix this and copy the BSS configuration, clear
it during suspend and restore it on resume.

It's a bit odd that there's a return value that only
depends on the iftype, move that logic out of the
function into the only caller that needs it.
Also, since the quiescing could stop timers that
trigger the sdata work, move the sdata work cancel
into the function and after the actual quiesce.
Finally, there's no need to call it on interfaces
that are down, so don't.

mac82011: use frame control to differentiate probe resp/beacon
The probe response/beacon management frame RX code passes a

This is useless since we have the frame and can thus use its

call to ieee80211_rx_bss_info with a beacon frame that is

bug, last_request is protected by the reg_mutex not
the cfg80211_mutex so the code in nl80211 is racy.
Remove that code as it only tries to prevent an
allocation in an error case, which isn't necessary.
Then the function can also become static and locking
in nl80211 can have a smaller scope.

b22cfcfcae5b, intended to speed up roaming

at a time where it's no longer expected to handle this: after the

To fix this problem remove the per-station work struct, maintain a
station cleanup list instead and flush this list when stations are
flushed. To keep this patch smaller for stable, do this when the
stations are flushed (sta_info_flush()). This unfortunately brings
back the original roaming delay; I'll fix that again in a separate

Also, Ben reported that the original commit could sometimes (with
many interfaces) cause long delays when an interface is set down,
