Merge tag 'mac80211-next-for-davem-2016-10-28' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jberg/mac80211-next



Johannes Berg says:

====================
Among various cleanups and improvements, we have the following:
 * client FILS authentication support in mac80211 (Jouni)
 * AP/VLAN multicast improvements (Michael Braun)
 * config/advertising support for differing beacon intervals on
   multiple virtual interfaces (Purushottam Kushwaha, myself)
 * deprecate the old WDS mode for cfg80211-based drivers, the
   mode is hardly usable since it doesn't support any "modern"
   features like WPA encryption (2003), HT (2009) or VHT (2014),
   I'm not even sure WEP (introduced in 1997) could be done.

	  This option enables the deprecated WDS support, the newer

	  mac80211-based 4-addr AP/client support supersedes it with

	  a much better feature set (HT, VHT, ...)



	  We plan to remove this option and code, so if you find

	  that you have to enable it, please let us know on the

	  linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org mailing list, so we can

	  help you migrate to 4-addr AP/client (or, if it's really

	  necessary, give up on our plan of removing it).
