[PATCH 1/2] nl80211: Add sta_flags to the station info

[Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com>]

Reuse the already existing struct nl80211_sta_flag_update to specify
both, a flag mask and the flag set itself. This means
nl80211_sta_flag_update is now used for setting station flags and also
for getting station flags.

I think this is reasonable since even if we add read-only flags in
the future we can just ignore them when userspace tries to set them.
