nl80211: vendor command support
Add support for vendor-specific commands to nl80211. This is intended to be used for really vendor-specific functionality that can't be implemented in a generic fashion for any reason. It's *NOT* intended to be used for any normal/generic feature or any optimisations that could be implemented across drivers. Currently, only vendor commands (with replies) are supported, no dump operations or vendor-specific notifications. Also add a function wdev_to_ieee80211_vif() to mac80211 which is needed for mac80211-based drivers wanting to implement any vendor commands. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
