This series picks up prior work from QCA. The patch is currently shipped
inside QSDK as part of the wlan-open package.

Changes in V9
* implement comments from Johannes
* add tx status reporting
* let the driver decide if tx frag will break encap mode
* use true/false for bool values
* move use_4addr check to driver

Changes in V8
* fix double locking when setting frag threshold

Changes in V7
* dont mask out monitor support when encap is available. Instead turn encap
  of if a monitor device is brought up or already present

Changes in V6
* the conditional masking out monitor support was inverse

Changes in V5
* implement comments from Johannes

Changes in V4
* disable encap when TKIP is used instead of refusing TKIP
* use a flag inside tx_info instead of an extra element
* move 4addr detection into ieee80211_set_hw_80211_encap()
* ieee80211_tx_dequeue() was dropping out to early

Changes in V3
* rebase on latest kernel
* various code style clean ups
* give some of the variables and functions more obvious names
* move the code that disables support for non-linear frames to the core
* disable monitor and tkip support
