The code here to RCU-dereference a pointer that's
on the stack is totally pointless, RCU isn't magic
(like say Java's weak references are), so the code
can't work like whoever wrote it thought it might.

Remove it so readers don't get confused. Note that
it seems that a bug is there anyway: I don't see
any code that cancels the timer when a mesh path
struct is destroyed.

The function
- increments dropped rx_packet count if status code
  passed to it is "-1".
- frees SKB buffer.

But currently the function is being called with "0" status code.
This patch replaces above function by dev_kfree_skb_any() call.

The XB113 cards are single band, 5 GHz-only, but the
default settings were configured to assume it was dual
band. Users of these cards then would see 2.4 GHz channels
but you would never get any scan results from these channels
given that the radio is not present.

When transmitting a frame, the transmitter waits a random number of
slots between 0 and cw. Thus, the contention time is (cw / 2) * t_slot
which we can represent instead as (cw * t_slot) >> 1. Also fix a few
other accounting bugs around contention time, and add comments.

Multiple virtual AP interfaces can currently try
to use different beacon intervals, but that just
leads to problems since it won't actually be done
that way by drivers. Return an error in this case
to make sure it won't be done wrong.

Also, ignore attempts to change the DTIM period
or beacon interval during the lifetime of the BSS.

Implement support for HW scheduled scan.  The mac80211 code doesn't perform
scheduled scans itself, but calls the driver to start and stop scheduled
scans.

order to avoid duplicate code.

Implement new functionality for scheduled scan offload.  With this feature we
can scan automatically at certain intervals.

The idea is that the hardware can perform scan automatically and filter on
desired results without waking up the host unnecessarily.

Add NL80211_CMD_START_SCHED_SCAN and NL80211_CMD_STOP_SCHED_SCAN
commands to the nl80211 interface.  When results are available they are
reported by NL80211_CMD_SCHED_SCAN_RESULTS events.  The userspace is
informed when the scheduled scan has stopped with a
NL80211_CMD_SCHED_SCAN_STOPPED event, which can be triggered either by
the driver or by a call to NL80211_CMD_STOP_SCHED_SCAN.
