Cover letter [RFC 00/11] mac80211: Add support for IEEE 802.11w (MFP)

This set of patches adds support for IEEE 802.11w (management frame protection) into mac80211. It is up-to-date with the latest IEEE 802.11w draft (D7.0) and I do not expect any major changes to IEEE 802.11w anymore.

The main differences to the last RFC round:
- resync with current mac80211
- update to latest IEEE 802.11w draft (D6.0 -> D7.0) (protection against unauthorized (re)association attacks with SA Query procedure and Association Comeback notification; exclude Public Action frames from MFP)
