      cfg80211: advertise possible interface combinations · 7527a782
      Johannes Berg authored
      Add the ability to advertise interface combinations in nl80211.
      This allows the driver to indicate what the combinations are
      that it supports. "Combinations" of just a single interface are
      implicit, as previously. Note that cfg80211 will enforce that
      the restrictions are met, but not for all drivers yet (once all
      drivers are updated, we can remove the flag and enforce for all).
      
      When no combinations are actually supported, an empty list will
      be exported so that userspace can know if the kernel exported
      this info or not (although it isn't clear to me what tools using
      the info should do if the kernel didn't export it).
      
      Since some interface types are purely virtual/software and don't
      fit the restrictions, those are exposed in a new list of pure SW
      types, not subject to restrictions. This mainly exists to handle
      AP-VLAN and monitor interfaces in mac80211.
