[PATCH 1/4] mac80211: Move IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE

[Sujith Manoharan]

From: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com>

Move IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE to info->control.flags since
this is used only in the TX path (by ath9k). This frees up
a bit which can be used for other purposes.

[PATCH 2/4] mac80211: Fix accounting of multicast frames

[Sujith Manoharan]

From: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com>

Since multicast frames are marked as no-ack, using
IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK to check if they have been
successfully transmitted by the driver is incorrect
since a driver can choose to ignore transmission status
for no-ack frames. This results in incorrect accounting
for such frames.

To fix this issue, this patch introduces a new flag
that can be used by drivers to indicate error-free
transmission of no-ack frames.

I don't really want to take the driver patches, but I'll try to get to

Yes, I'll take this patch once I have the mac80211 dependency in my
tree. I marked the patch as "Awaiting Upstream" in patchwork so that I
don't forget, hopefully :)
