[RFC PATCH] cfg80211: support multicast RX registration

[RFC PATCH] cfg80211: support multicast RX registration

[Johannes Berg]

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

For DPP, there's a need to receive multicast action frames,
but many drivers need a special filter configuration for this.

Support announcing from userspace in the management registration
that multicast RX is required, with an extended feature flag if
the driver handles this.

Thanks, this looks good to me. I did some testing with mac80211 and
wpa_supplicant changes to confirm that the DPP listen case can be passed
through this to the driver as needed.
