      mac80211: Optimize scans on current operating channel. · b23b025f
      Ben Greear authored
      This should decrease un-necessary flushes, on/off channel work,
      and channel changes in cases where the only scanned channel is
      the current operating channel.
      
      * Removes SCAN_OFF_CHANNEL flag, uses SDATA_STATE_OFFCHANNEL
        and is-scanning flags instead.
      
      * Add helper method to determine if we are currently configured
        for the operating channel.
      
      * Do no blindly go off/on channel in work.c  Instead, only call
        appropriate on/off code when we really need to change channels.
        Always enable offchannel-ps mode when starting work,
        and disable it when we are done.
      
      * Consolidate ieee80211_offchannel_stop_station and
        ieee80211_offchannel_stop_beaconing, call it
        ieee80211_offchannel_stop_vifs instead.
      
      * Accept non-beacon frames when scanning on operating channel.
      
      * Scan state machine optimized to minimize on/off channel
        transitions.  Also, when going on-channel, go ahead and
        re-enable beaconing.  We're going to be there for 200ms,
        so seems like some useful beaconing could happen.
        Always enable offchannel-ps mode when starting software
        scan, and disable it when we are done.
      
      * Grab local->mtx earlier in __ieee80211_scan_completed_finish
        so that we are protected when calling hw_config(), etc.
      
      * Pass probe-responses up the stack if scanning on local
        channel, so that mlme can take a look.
