Johannes Berg 310c8387c6 wifi: mac80211: clean up connection process
Rewrite the station-side connection handling. The connection
flags (IEEE80211_DISABLE_*) are rather confusing, and they're
not always maintained well. Additionally, for wider-bandwidth
OFDMA support we need to know the precise bandwidth of the AP,
which is currently somewhat difficult.

Rewrite this to have a 'mode' (S1G/legacy/HT/...) and a limit
on the bandwidth. This is not entirely clean because some of
those modes aren't completely sequenced (as this assumes in
some places), e.g. VHT doesn't exist on 2.4 GHz, but HE does.
However, it still simplifies things and gives us a good idea
what we're operating as, so we can parse elements accordingly
etc.

This leaves a FIXME for puncturing, this is addressed in a
later patch.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
