<content type='text'>
commit e76aadc572288a158ae18ae1c10fe395c7bca066 upstream.

Backport note:
This patch it's a full revert of commit b23b025f "mac80211: Optimize
scans on current operating channel.". On upstrem revert e76aadc5 we
keep some bits from that commit, which are needed for upstream version
of mac80211.

The on-channel work optimisations have caused a
number of issues, and the code is unfortunately
very complex and almost impossible to follow.
Instead of attempting to put in more workarounds
let's just remove those optimisations, we can
work on them again later, after we change the
whole auth/assoc design.

This should fix rate_control_send_low() warnings,
see RH bug 731365.

These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using
the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so
that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence
of module.h from everywhere.

This is needed so that offloaded scan can do the
right thing. Without this patch, the no_cck flag
contains random values from the kernel heap.

<title>mac80211: Send the management frame at requested rate</title>

Whenever the scan request or tx_mgmt is requesting not to
use CCK rate for managemet frames through
NL80211_ATTR_TX_NO_CCK_RATE attribute, then mac80211 should
select appropriate least non-CCK rate. This could help to
send P2P probes and P2P action frames at non 11b rates
without diabling 11b rates globally.

Scanning currently uses the TX rate mask to
restrict the rate set, which is bogus. Make
it use the new set of rates from userspace.
