ath9k: non-functional: calculate DFS pulse interval per-wiphy

Systems with multiple DFS channel detectors need to track
timestamp of previous pulse per instance to display the
correct pulse interval.

Since the interval value is used for debug printing only,
this is a non-functional modification.

mac80211: allow VHT with peers not capable of 40MHz

There are two (related) issues with this.

One case, reported by Michal, is related to hostap: it unsets the
20/40 capability bit for stations that associate when it's in 20
MHz mode.

The other case, reported by Eyal, is that some APs like Netgear
R6300v2 and probably others based on the BCM4360 chipset can be
configured for doing VHT at 20Mhz. In this case the beacon has
a VHT IE but the HT cap indicates transmitter only support 20Mhz.

In both of these cases, we currently avoid VHT and use only HT
this means we can't use the highest rates (MCS8), so fixing this
leads to throughput improvements.

mac80211: add option to generate CCMP IVs only for mgmt frames

Some chips can encrypt managment frames in HW, but
require generated IV in the frame. Add a key flag
that allows us to achieve this.

mac80211: compute chanctx refcount on-the-fly

It doesn't make much sense to store refcount in
the chanctx structure. One still needs to hold
chanctx_mtx to get the value safely. Besides,
refcount isn't on performance critical paths.

This will make implementing chanctx reservation
refcounting a little easier.

mac80211: fix racy usage of chanctx->refcount

Channel context refcount is protected by
chanctx_mtx. Accessing the value without holding
the mutex is racy. RCU section didn't guarantee
anything here.

Theoretically ieee80211_channel_switch() could
fail to see refcount change and read "1" instead
of, e.g. "2". This means mac80211 could accept CSA
even though it shouldn't have.
