It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.
Make these functions (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void *

where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the
following spatch:

- E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))

which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three

The 11ad spec requires 11ad devices to be able to receive 8KB
packets over the air. Currently this is only possible by
loading the driver with mtu_max=7912 but this also forces
a smaller block ACK window size which reduces performance
for stations which transmit normal sized packets (<2KB).
Fix this problem as follows:
1. Add a module parameter rx_large_buf that when set,
will allocate 8KB RX buffers regardless of mtu_max
setting.
2. When receiving block ACK request agree to any window
size not above our maximum, regardless of the mtu_max setting.
This means if the other side transmits small packets (2KB)
it can still set up block ACK with a large window size,
and get better performance.

In a fast disconnect/connect sequence, cfg80211_connect_result() can
fail to find the bss object which the driver is connecting to. Detailed
sequence of events:
* Driver is connected in STA mode
* Disconnect request arrives from user space. Driver disconnects and
calls cfg80211_disconnected() which adds new event to the
cfg80211_wq worker thread
* Connect request arrives from user space. cfg80211_connect() stores
ssid/ssid_len and calls rdev_connect()
* __cfg80211_disconnected() runs in worker thread and zero
wdev->ssid_len
* Connect succeeds. Driver calls cfg80211_connect_result() which fails
to find the bss because wdev->ssid_len is zero
To overcome this, upon connect request, store the bss object in the
driver and upon connect completion pass it to kernel using
cfg80211_connect_bss().

Currently the driver requests resources for the maximum

was left marked as "done" and the next wmi_call returned

Beacon report radio measurement requires reporting observed BSSs
on the channels specified in the beacon request. If the measurement
mode is set to passive or active, it requires actually performing a
scan (passive or active, accordingly), and reporting the time that
the scan was started and the time each beacon/probe was received
(both in terms of TSF of the BSS of the requesting AP). If the
request mode is table, this information is optional.
In addition, the radio measurement request specifies the channel
dwell time for the measurement.
In order to use scan for beacon report when the mode is active or
passive, add a parameter to scan request that specifies the
channel dwell time, and add scan start time and beacon received time
to scan results information.
Supporting beacon report is required for Multi Band Operation (MBO).

Added support for the P2P_DEVICE virtual interface. This interface
is intended for P2P management operations such as discovery and
GO negotiation. Normally it is implemented by drivers to allow
a separate interface for P2P management with its own MAC address,
but for 11ad drivers it is needed to support P2P search, since it
cannot otherwise be separated from normal scan.
Since we only support a single interface/MAC address, we can't
easily separate between primary and P2P_DEVICE interfaces.
For example when a management packet arrives we can't tell for
which interface it is intended. To work around this, we store
a pointer to the interface where the last "radio operation" was
triggered such as scan or remain on channel, and we forward
management packets and scan results to this interface.

For the networking code and for hardware network accelerators,

DMA on Rx path require buffer to be aligned on 4*n as well.
Having 14 bytes of Ethernet header, these 2 alignment
requests are in contradiction.
To solve this, order hardware offload block to not remove
SNAP header. This adds extra 6 bytes between addresses and
ethertype, making it 20 bytes total. This way, both buffer and
IP header are 4*n aligned. Remaining is only to remove SNAP
by shifting addresses 6 bytes. This involves data copying, so
this feature should be disabled unless required by the platform.
