This is really just duplicating the list of information that's
already available in the nl80211 attribute, so remove the list.
Two small changes are needed:
* remove STATION_INFO_ASSOC_REQ_IES complete, but the length
(assoc_req_ies_len) can be used instead
* add NL80211_STA_INFO_RX_DROP_MISC which exists internally
but not in nl80211 yet
This gets rid of the duplicate maintenance of the two lists.

Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There are

Add mem_val debugfs file for dumping the firmware (target) memory and also for
writing to the memory. The firmware memory is accessed through one file which
uses position of the file as the firmware memory address. For example, with dd
use skip parameter for the address.
Beucase target memory width is 32 bits it's strongly recommended to use
blocksize divisable with 4 when using this interface. For example, when using
dd use bs=4 to set the block size to 4 and remember to divide both count and
skip values with four.
To read 4 kB chunk from address 0x400000:
dd if=mem_value bs=4 count=1024 skip=1048576 | xxd -g1
To write value 0x01020304 to address 0x400400:
echo 0x01020304 | xxd -r | dd of=mem_value bs=4 seek=1048832
To read 4 KB chunk of memory and then write back after edit:
dd if=mem_value of=tmp.bin bs=4 count=1024 skip=1048576
emacs tmp.bin
dd if=tmp.bin of=mem_value bs=4 count=1024 seek=1048576

When static keys are used in shared WEP, when a
station is associated, message 3 is sent with an
encrypted payload. But, for subsequent
authentications that are triggered without a
deauth, the auth frame is decrypted by the HW.
To handle this, check if the WEP keys have already
been set for the peer and if so, mark the
frame as decrypted. This scenario can happen
when a station changes its default TX key and initiates
a new authentication sequence.
