<title>mac80211: don't start the dynamic ps timer if not associated</title>

<content type='text'>
When we are disconnecting, we set PS off, but this happens before we
send the deauth/disassoc request.  When the deauth/disassoc frames are
sent, we trigger the dynamic ps timer, which then times out and turns
PS back on.  Thus, PS remains on after disconnecting, causing problems
when associating again.

This can be fixed by preventing the timer to start when we're not
associated anymore.

<title>mac80211: fix SMPS debugfs locking</title>

The locking with SMPS requests means that the
debugs file should lock the mgd mutex, not the
iflist mutex. Calls to __ieee80211_request_smps()
need to hold that mutex, so add an assertion.

This has always been wrong, but for some reason
never been noticed, probably because the locking
error only happens while unassociated.

Cleaning the ieee80211_rx_data.flags field here is wrong, instead the
flags should be valid accross processing the frame on different
interfaces. Fix this by removing the incorrect flags=0 assignment.

Introduced in commit 554891e63a29af35cc6bb403ef34e319518114d0

<title>mac80211: fix aggregation frame release during timeout</title>

Suppose the aggregation reorder buffer looks like this:

x-T-R1-y-R2,

where x and y are frames that have not been received, T is a received
frame that has timed out, and R1,R2 are received frames that have not
yet timed out. The proper behavior in this scenario is to move the
window past x (skipping it), release T and R1, and leave the window at y
until y is received or R2 times out.

As written, this code will instead leave the window at R1, because it
has not yet timed out. Fix this by exiting the reorder loop only when
the frame that has not timed out AND there are skipped frames earlier in
the current valid window.
