[PATCH v4 0/6] cfg80211/mac80211: Add support for 6GHZ STA for various modes : LPI, SP and VLP

[Wen Gong]

v4:
    1. rebased to top commit id 9e263e193af7 kernel/git/jberg/mac80211-next.git
    2. add NULL check for "mac80211: use ieee802_11_parse_elems() to find ies instead of ieee80211_bss_get_ie()"
    3. remove the 3 patches which already upstream:
       "mac80211: parse transmit power envelope element"
       "ieee80211: add definition for transmit power envelope element"
       "ieee80211: add definition of regulatory info in 6 GHz operation information"

v3: change per comments of Johannes.
    1. add patch "mac80211: use ieee802_11_parse_elems() to find ies instead of ieee80211_bss_get_ie()"
    2. move nl80211_ap_reg_power to ieee80211
    3. change some comments, length check, stack big size variable...

v2: change per comments of johannes.
    including code style, code logic, patch merge, commit log...

It introduced some new concept:
power type of AP(STANDARD_POWER_AP, INDOOR_AP, VERY_LOW_POWER_AP)
power type of STATION(DEFAULT_CLIENT, SUBORDINATE_CLIENT)
power spectral density(psd)

This patchset for cfg80211/mac80211 is to add the definition of new
concept of 6G and add basic parse of IE(transmit power envelope
element) in beacon and save power spectral density(psd) reported
by lower-driver for 6G channel, the info will be passed to lower
driver when connecting to 6G AP.

Wen Gong (6):
  mac80211: add power type definition for 6 GHz
  mac80211: add parse regulatory info in 6 GHz operation information
  cfg80211: add definition for 6 GHz power spectral density(psd)
  cfg80211: save power spectral density(psd) of regulatory rule
  mac80211: use ieee802_11_parse_elems() to find ies instead of
    ieee80211_bss_get_ie()
  mac80211: save transmit power envelope element and power constraint
