    nl80211: add KHz frequency offset for most wifi commands · 942ba88b
    Thomas Pedersen authored
    cfg80211 recently gained the ability to understand a
    frequency offset component in KHz. Expose this in nl80211
    through the new attributes NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ_OFFSET,
    NL80211_FREQUENCY_ATTR_OFFSET,
    NL80211_ATTR_CENTER_FREQ1_OFFSET, and
    NL80211_BSS_FREQUENCY_OFFSET.
    
    These add support to send and receive a KHz offset
    component with the following NL80211 commands:
    
    - NL80211_CMD_FRAME
    - NL80211_CMD_GET_SCAN
    - NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE
    - NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE
    - NL80211_CMD_CONNECT
    
    Along with any other command which takes a chandef, ie:
    
    - NL80211_CMD_SET_CHANNEL
    - NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY
    - NL80211_CMD_START_AP
    - NL80211_CMD_RADAR_DETECT
    - NL80211_CMD_NOTIFY_RADAR
    - NL80211_CMD_CHANNEL_SWITCH
    - NL80211_JOIN_IBSS
    - NL80211_CMD_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL
    - NL80211_CMD_JOIN_OCB
    - NL80211_CMD_JOIN_MESH
    - NL80211_CMD_TDLS_CHANNEL_SWITCH
    
    If the driver advertises a band containing channels with
    frequency offset, it must also verify support for
    frequency offset channels in its cfg80211 ops, or return
    an error.
