Subject: [PATCH 00/16] staging: wfx: rework the handling of the connection loss

From: Jérôme Pouiller <jerome.pouiller@...abs.com>

Until now, the driver handled itself the connection loss. This series
allows to use ieee80211_beacon_loss() instead (patch 2/16). This change
allow a bunch of simplifications in many parts of the driver (most of
the patches 3 to 16). In particular it allows to drop the infamous enum
wfx_state (patch 15/16).

Jérôme Pouiller (16):
  staging: wfx: simplify the check if the the device is associated
  staging: wfx: use ieee80211_beacon_loss() provided by mac80211
  staging: wfx: drop useless attribute 'bss_params'
  staging: wfx: handle firmware events synchronously
  staging: wfx: also fix network parameters for IBSS networks
  staging: wfx: dual CTS is never necessary
  staging: wfx: field operational_rate_set is ignored by firmware
  staging: wfx: simplify hif_set_bss_params()
  staging: wfx: drop useless update of field basic_rate_set
  staging: wfx: introduce wfx_set_default_unicast_key()
  staging: wfx: keys are kept during whole firmware life
  staging: wfx: drop protection for asynchronous join during scan
  staging: wfx: drop useless checks in wfx_do_unjoin()
  staging: wfx: simplify wfx_remove_interface()
  staging: wfx: drop unused enum wfx_state
  staging: wfx: drop unused attribute 'join_complete_status'
