pull-request: mac80211-next 2019-02-01

[Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>]

Hi Dave,

Here's my next pull request for net-next. I wanted to include more,
notably the multi-BSSID work that's going on now (multi-BSSID lets
a single AP with a single beacon have multiple networks, rather than
requiring a beacon for each), but we're still finding small issues
and bugs in it, so I haven't included it. As always, I'll send it
when it's ready :-)

As noted below, this contains the NLA_POLICY_NESTED{,_ARRAY} changes
I showed you earlier, no new users have been added to net-next as
of today when I merged your tree to mine (to get the net changes to
not have conflicts over this in wireless code.)

Please pull and let me know if there's any problem.

Thanks,
johannes

  mac80211: fix missing/malformed documentation (2019-02-01 12:11:13 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
New features for the wifi stack:
 * airtime fairness scheduling in mac80211, so we can share
 * more authentication offloads to userspace - this is for
   SAE which is part of WPA3 and is hard to do in firmware
 * documentation fixes
 * various mesh improvements
 * various other small improvements/cleanups

This also contains the NLA_POLICY_NESTED{,_ARRAY} change we
discussed, which affects everyone but there's no other user
yet.
