    mac80211: add sta_state callback · f09603a2

    (based on Eliad's patch)
    
    Add a callback to notify the low-level driver whenever
    the state of a station changes. The driver is only
    notified when the station is actually in the mac80211
    hash table, not for pre-insert state transitions.
    
    To allow the driver to replace sta_add/remove calls
    with this, call extra transitions with the NOTEXIST
    state.
    
    This callback can fail, so we need to be careful in
    handling it when a station is inserted, particularly
    in the IBSS case where we still keep the station entry
    around for mac80211 purposes.
