<title>nl80211: add common API to configure SAR power limitations</title>

<id>6bdb68cef7bf57cdb3f8d1498623556d6823ff3a</id>
<content type='text'>
NL80211_CMD_SET_SAR_SPECS is added to configure SAR from
user space. NL80211_ATTR_SAR_SPEC is used to pass the SAR
power specification when used with NL80211_CMD_SET_SAR_SPECS.

Wireless driver needs to register SAR type, supported frequency
ranges to wiphy, so user space can query it. The index in
frequency range is used to specify which sub band the power
limitation applies to. The SAR type is for compatibility, so later
other SAR mechanism can be implemented without breaking the user
space SAR applications.

Normal process is user space queries the SAR capability, and
gets the index of supported frequency ranges and associates the
power limitation with this index and sends to kernel.

Here is an example of message send to kernel:
8c 00 00 00 08 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 38 00 2b 81
08 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 2c 00 02 80 14 00 00 80

14 00 01 80 08 00 02 00 01 00 00 00 08 00 01 00

NL80211_CMD_SET_SAR_SPECS:  0x8c

<title>cfg80211: Add support to configure SAE PWE value to drivers</title>

<content type='text'>
Add support to configure SAE PWE preference from userspace to drivers in
both AP and STA modes. This is needed for cases where the driver takes
care of Authentication frame processing (SME in the driver) so that
correct enforcement of the acceptable PWE derivation mechanism can be
performed.

The userspace applications can pass the sae_pwe value using the
NL80211_ATTR_SAE_PWE attribute in the NL80211_CMD_CONNECT and
NL80211_CMD_START_AP commands to the driver. This allows selection
between the hunting-and-pecking loop and hash-to-element options for PWE
derivation. For backwards compatibility, this new attribute is optional
and if not included, the driver is notified of the value being
unspecified.
