  To: ath10k; +Cc: linux-wireless, arnagara, Ashok Raj Nagarajan

This patch will add the support to control the transmit power for traffic
to a station associated with the AP. Userspace provide the transmit power
value in mBm units. ath10k firmware expects the value to be in dBm and
hence will convert the value from to dBm before passing down to firmware.

Underlying FW will enforce that the maximum tx power will be based on the
regulatory requirements. If the user given transmit power is greater than
the allowed tx power in the given channel, then the FW will use the maximum
tx power in the same channel.

When 0 is sent to the FW as tx power, it will revert to the automatic tx
power for the station.

v3:
	- reword commit log
	- remove range check for the input from user. (Ben Greear)
