v6 of these patches incorporate more changes based on of Johannes' comments.
Some parts of the code was refactored to improve extendability.

v6 also has fixes a problem in configuring the rssi threshold and hysteresis
to the driver. It's now only done when associated.



To implement good performance WLAN roaming, it is not sufficient to start
scanning for other available AP's only after the currently serving association
is lost.

The entity controlling the roaming will need to get indication of a
deteriorating WLAN connection in order to start preparing for roaming already
before the serving association is lost. This way, it can roam to a better AP
perhaps even before the serving association becomes too bad in quality.

These patches propose an implementation facilitating this using a simple RSSI
threshold and hysteresis approach.

These patches add a nl80211 interface for simply configuring a rssi threshold
and hysteresis value to facilitate very basic connection quality monitoring.

For the triggering, these patches currently rely on HW support, host based
triggering is not implemented, but could be added later if needed.

These patches have been tested with the wl1271 driver.

Thanks in advance for your comments and suggestions.

Add support for basic configuration of a connection quality monitoring to the
nl80211 interface, and basic support for notifying about triggered monitoring
events.

Via this interface a user-space connection manager may configure and receive
pre-warning events of deteriorating WLAN connection quality, and start
preparing for roaming in advance, before the connection is already lost.

An example usage of such a trigger is starting scanning for nearby AP's in
an attempt to find one with better connection quality, and associate to it
before the connection characteristics of the existing connection become too bad
or the association is even lost, leading in a prolonged delay in connectivity.

The interface currently supports only RSSI, but it could be later extended
to include other parameters, such as signal-to-noise ratio, if need for that
arises.

Add support for the set_cqm_config op. This op function configures the
requested connection quality monitor rssi threshold and rssi hysteresis
values to the hardware  if the hardware supports
IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_CQM.

For unsupporting hardware, currently -EOPNOTSUPP is returned, so the mac80211
is currently not doing connection quality monitoring on the host. This could be
added later, if needed.
