the FW to aggregate on a specific TID for better throughput.
To ensure that the allocated TID is indeed unused, this patch
introduces an API for blocking the driver from TXing on that
TID.

mac80211: add TDLS channel-switch Rx flow
When receiving a TDLS channel switch request or response, parse the frame
and call a new tdls_recv_channel_switch op in the low level driver with
the parsed data.

mac80211: introduce TDLS channel switch ops
Implement the cfg80211 TDLS channel switch ops and introduce new mac80211
ones for low-level drivers.
Verify low-level driver support for the new ops when using the relevant
wiphy feature bit. Also verify the peer supports channel switching before
passing the command down.
Add a new STA flag to track the off-channel state with the TDLS peer and
make sure to cancel the channel-switch if the peer STA is unexpectedly
removed.

cfg80211: introduce TDLS channel switch commands
Introduce commands to initiate and cancel TDLS channel-switching. Once
TDLS channel-switching is started, the lower level driver is responsible
for continually initiating channel-switch operations and returning to
the base (AP) channel to listen for beacons from time to time.
Upon cancellation of the channel-switch all communication between the
relevant TDLS peers will continue on the base channel.

mac80211: prepare TDLS mgmt code for channel-switch templates
Split the data-generating from the Tx-sending functionality, as we do
not want to send templates to the lower driver. Also add an optional
chandef argument to the data-generating portion. It will be used for
channel-switch templates.

The AP or peer can prohibit TDLS channel switch via a bit in the

appropriate STA flag if both the AP and peer STA support TDLS
channel-switching.
