    cfg80211/nl80211: add DFS offload flag · 13cf6dec
    Dmitry Lebed authored
    Add wiphy EXT_FEATURE flag to indicate that HW or driver does
    all DFS actions by itself.
    User-space functionality already implemented in hostapd using
    vendor-specific (QCA) OUI to advertise DFS offload support.
    Need to introduce generic flag to inform about DFS offload support.
    For devices with DFS_OFFLOAD flag set user-space will no longer
    need to issue CAC or do any actions in response to
    "radar detected" events. HW will do everything by itself and send
    events to user-space to indicate that CAC was started/finished, etc.
