Add the missing IBSS capability flag during capability init as it needs
to be inserted into the generated beacon in order for CSA to work.

The nl80211_nan_dual_band_conf enumeration doesn't make much sense.
The default value is assigned to a bit, which makes it weird if the
default bit and other bits are set at the same time.
To improve this, get rid of NL80211_NAN_BAND_DEFAULT and add a wiphy
configuration to let the drivers define which bands are supported.
This is exposed to the userspace, which then can make a decision on
which band(s) to use. Additionally, rename all "dual_band" elements
to "bands", to make things clearer.

Update the drivers to pass the RSSI level as a cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify
parameter and pass this value to userspace in a new nl80211 attribute.
This helps both userspace and also helps in the implementation of the
multiple RSSI thresholds CQM mechanism.
Note for marvell/mwifiex I pass 0 for the RSSI value because the new
RSSI value is not available to the driver at the time of the
cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify call, but the driver queries the new value
immediately after that, so it is actually available just a moment later
if we wanted to defer caling cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify until that moment.
Without this, the new cfg80211 code (patch 3) will call .get_station
which will send a duplicate HostCmd_CMD_RSSI_INFO command to the hardware.

Extend ieee80211_cqm_rssi_notify with a rssi_level parameter so that
this information can be passed to netlink clients in the next patch, if
available. Most drivers will have this value at hand. wl1251 receives
events from the firmware that only tell it whether latest measurement
is above or below threshold so we don't pass any value at this time
(parameter is 0).

kmalloc() can fail. Also let's move the allocation out of the
declaration block so it's easier to read.

Instead of open coding the CMAC algorithm in the mac80211 driver using
byte wide xors and calls into the crypto layer for each block of data,
instantiate a cmac(aes) synchronous hash and pass all the data into it
directly. This does not only simplify the code, it also allows the use
of more efficient and more secure implementations, especially on
platforms where SIMD ciphers have a considerable setup cost.

Switch the FILS AEAD code to use a cmac(aes) shash instantiated by the
crypto API rather than reusing the open coded implementation in
aes_cmac_vector(). This makes the code more understandable, and allows
platforms to implement cmac(aes) in a more secure (*) and efficient way
than is typically possible when using the AES cipher directly.
So replace the crypto_cipher by a crypto_shash, and update the aes_s2v()
routine to call the shash interface directly.
* In particular, the generic table based AES implementation is sensitive
to known-plaintext timing attacks on the key, to which AES based MAC
algorithms are especially vulnerable, given that their plaintext is not
usually secret. Time invariant alternatives are available (e.g., based
on SIMD algorithms), but may incur a setup cost that is prohibitive when
operating on a single block at a time, which is why they don't usually
expose the cipher API.
