Previously mesh channel switch happens if beacon contains CSA IE without checking the mesh peer info. Due to that channel switch happens even if the beacon is not from its own mesh peer. Fixing that by checking if the CSA originated from the same mesh network before proceeding for channel switch.

A race condition leading to a kernel crash is observed during invocation
of ieee80211_register_hw() on a dragonboard410c device having wcn36xx
driver built as a loadable module along with a wifi manager in user-space
waiting for a wifi device (wlanX) to be active.
Sequence diagram for a particular kernel crash scenario:
user-space ieee80211_register_hw() ieee80211_tasklet_handler()
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

|<---phy0----wiphy_register() |
|-----iwd if_add---->| |
| |<---IRQ----(RX packet)
| Kernel crash |

| workqueue. |
| | |
| alloc_ordered_workqueue() |
| | |
| Misc wiphy init. |
| | |
| ieee80211_if_add() |

As evident from above sequence diagram, this race condition isn't specific
to a particular wifi driver but rather the initialization sequence in
ieee80211_register_hw() needs to be fixed. So re-order the initialization
sequence and the updated sequence diagram would look like:
user-space ieee80211_register_hw() ieee80211_tasklet_handler()

The original patch didn't copy the ieee80211_is_data() condition
because on most drivers the management frames don't go through
this path. However, they do on iwlwifi/mvm, so we do need to keep
the condition here.

Minor comment conflict in mac80211. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
When a frame is transmitted via the nl80211 TX rather than as a
normal frame, IEEE80211_TX_CTRL_PORT_CTRL_PROTO wasn't set and
this will lead to wrong decisions (rate control etc.) being made
about the frame; fix this.

If a station is still marked as authorized, mark it as no longer so before removing its keys. This allows frames transmitted to it to be rejected, providing additional protection against leaking plain text data during the disconnection flow.

mac80211 used to check port authorization in the Data frame enqueue case when going through start_xmit(). However, that authorization status may change while the frame is waiting in a queue. Add a similar check in the dequeue case to avoid sending previously accepted frames after authorization change. This provides additional protection against potential leaking of frames after a station has been disconnected and the keys for it are being removed.

If we know that we have an encrypted link (based on having had a key configured for TX in the past) then drop all data frames in the key selection handler if there's no key anymore. This fixes an issue with mac80211 internal TXQs - there we can buffer frames for an encrypted link, but then if the key is no longer there when they're dequeued, the frames are sent without encryption. This happens if a station is disconnected while the frames are still on the TXQ. Detecting that a link should be encrypted based on a first key having been configured for TX is fine as there are no use cases for a connection going from with encryption to no encryption. With extended key IDs, however, there is a case of having a key configured for only decryption, so we can't just trigger this behaviour on a key being configured.

Some of the drivers are not using channel context, but let the stack to control/switch channels instead. For such cases, driver can still remain on channel because the mac80211 stack actually supports it. The stack will check if the driver is using chan_ctx and has ops->remain_on_channel been hooked. Otherwise it will start its ROC work to remain on channel. So, even if the driver is not using chan_ctx, the driver is still capable of doing remain on channel.
