    nl80211: Add RSC configuration for new keys · faa8fdc8

    When setting a key with NL80211_CMD_NEW_KEY, we should allow the key
    sequence number (RSC) to be set in order to allow replay protection to
    work correctly for group keys. This patch documents this use for
    nl80211 and adds the couple of missing pieces in nl80211/cfg80211 and
    mac80211 to support this. In addition, WEXT SIOCSIWENCODEEXT compat
    processing in cfg80211 is extended to handle the RSC (this was already
    specified in WEXT, but just not implemented in cfg80211/mac80211).
