59ae1d127a networking: introduce and use skb_put_data()
A common pattern with skb_put() is to just want to memcpy()
some data into the new space, introduce skb_put_data() for
this.

An spatch similar to the one for skb_put_zero() converts many
of the places using it:

    @@
    identifier p, p2;
    expression len, skb, data;
    type t, t2;
    @@
    (
    -p = skb_put(skb, len);
    +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len);
    |
    -p = (t)skb_put(skb, len);
    +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len);
    )
    (
    p2 = (t2)p;
    -memcpy(p2, data, len);
    |
    -memcpy(p, data, len);
    )

    @@
    type t, t2;
    identifier p, p2;
    expression skb, data;
    @@
    t *p;
    ...
    (
    -p = skb_put(skb, sizeof(t));
    +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t));
    |
    -p = (t *)skb_put(skb, sizeof(t));
    +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t));
    )
    (
    p2 = (t2)p;
    -memcpy(p2, data, sizeof(*p));
    |
    -memcpy(p, data, sizeof(*p));
    )

    @@
    expression skb, len, data;
    @@
    -memcpy(skb_put(skb, len), data, len);
    +skb_put_data(skb, data, len);

(again, manually post-processed to retain some comments)

ae44b50266 wireless: Set NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CQM_RSSI_LIST in multiple drivers
Set the NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CQM_RSSI_LIST wiphy extended feature
wholesale in all mac80211-based drivers that do not set the
IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER flags on their interfaces.  mac80211 will
be processing supplied RSSI values in ieee80211_rx_mgmt_beacon and
will detect when the thresholds set by
ieee80211_set_cqm_rssi_range_config are crossed.  Remaining (few)
drivers need code to enable the firmware to monitor the thresholds.
This is mostly only compile-tested.

8f20542386 wireless: deprecate WDS and disable by default
The old WDS 4-addr frame support is very limited, e.g.
 * no encryption is possible on such links
 * it cannot support rate/HT/VHT negotiation
 * management APIs are very restricted

These make the WDS legacy mode useless in practice.

All of these are resolved by the 4-addr AP/client support,
so there's also no reason to improve WDS in the future.

Therefore, add a Kconfig option to disable legacy WDS.
This gives people an "emergency valve" while they migrate
to the better-supported 4-addr AP/client option; we plan
to remove it (and the associated cfg80211/mac80211 code,
which is the ultimate goal) in the future.

9c4a45b17e b43legacy: fix debugfs crash
This patch fixes a crash that happens because b43legacy's
debugfs code expects file->f_op to be a pointer to its own
b43legacy_debugfs_fops struct. This is no longer the case
since commit 9fd4dcece4
("debugfs: prevent access to possibly dead file_operations at file open")

57fbcce37b cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_band
This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and
the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of
it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of
bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one.
