MFC r343682:
sys/dev/wtap: Check return value from malloc(..., M_NOWAIT) and
drop unneeded cast.

Revert r330897:

This was intended to be a non-functional change. It wasn't. The commit
message was thus wrong. In addition it broke arm, and merged crypto
related code.

Revert with prejudice.

This revert skips files touched in r316370 since that commit was since
MFCed. This revert also skips files that require $FreeBSD$ property
changes.

Thank you to those who helped me get out of this mess including but not
limited to gonzo, kevans, rgrimes.

Partial merge of the SPDX changes

These changes are incomplete but are making it difficult
to determine what other changes can/should be merged.

No objections from: pfg

Copy head@r302406 to stable/11 as part of the 11.0-RELEASE cycle.
Prune svn:mergeinfo from the new branch, as nothing has been merged
here.

Additional commits post-branch will follow.

net80211: drop ieee80211_beacon_offsets parameter from ieee80211_beacon_alloc() and ieee80211_beacon_update()

Replay r286410. Change KPI of how device drivers that provide wireless
connectivity interact with the net80211 stack.

Historical background: originally wireless devices created an interface,
just like Ethernet devices do. Name of an interface matched the name of
the driver that created. Later, wlan(4) layer was introduced, and the
wlanX interfaces become the actual interface, leaving original ones as
"a parent interface" of wlanX. Kernelwise, the KPI between net80211 layer
and a driver became a mix of methods that pass a pointer to struct ifnet
as identifier and methods that pass pointer to struct ieee80211com. From
user point of view, the parent interface just hangs on in the ifconfig
list, and user can't do anything useful with it.

Now, the struct ifnet goes away. The struct ieee80211com is the only
KPI between a device driver and net80211. Details:

- The struct ieee80211com is embedded into drivers softc.
- Packets are sent via new ic_transmit method, which is very much like
the previous if_transmit.
- Bringing parent up/down is done via new ic_parent method, which notifies
driver about any changes: number of wlan(4) interfaces, number of them
in promisc or allmulti state.
- Device specific ioctls (if any) are received on new ic_ioctl method.
- Packets/errors accounting are done by the stack. In certain cases, when
driver experiences errors and can not attribute them to any specific
interface, driver updates ic_oerrors or ic_ierrors counters.

Details on interface configuration with new world order:
- A sequence of commands needed to bring up wireless DOESN"T change.
- /etc/rc.conf parameters DON'T change.
- List of devices that can be used to create wlan(4) interfaces is
now provided by net.wlan.devices sysctl.

Most drivers in this change were converted by me, except of wpi(4),
that was done by Andriy Voskoboinyk. Big thanks to Kevin Lo for testing
changes to at least 8 drivers. Thanks to pluknet@, Oliver Hartmann,
Olivier Cochard, gjb@, mmoll@, op@ and lev@, who also participated in
testing.

Still, drivers: ndis, wtap, mwl, ipw, bwn, wi, upgt, uath were not
tested. Changes to mwl, ipw, bwn, wi, upgt are trivial and chances
of problems are low. The wtap wasn't compilable even before this change.
But the ndis driver is complex, and it is likely to be broken with this
commit. Help with testing and debugging it is appreciated.

Make it compilable. No idea if it works.

Change three methods in struct ieee80211com, namely ic_updateslot,
ic_update_mcast and ic_update_promisc, to pass pointer to the ieee80211com,
not to the ifnet.

Mechanically substitute flags from historic mbuf allocator with

Don't grab an unreferenced pointer to the VAP bss node.

Fix wtap to not panic in wtap_beacon_intrp.

* Changed KASSERT to be debug printf (DWTAP_PRINTF). If state is not
IEEE80211_S_RUN we return without scheduling a new callout;
* When net80211 stack changes state to IEEE802_11_INIT we stop the
beacon callout task;

Remove this - it's not needed as it's defined in ieee80211_freebsd.h.

Correctly calculate the callout interval for beacon generation.

Enforce that wtap requires VIMAGE to be useful.

Remove direct access to si_name.

Code should just use the devtoname() function to obtain the name of a
character device. Also add const keywords to pieces of code that need it
to build properly.

Introduce wtap, the beginnings of a net80211 wlan simulator.

This introduces:

* a basic wtap interface
* a HAL, which implements an abstraction layer for implementing
different device behavious;
* A visibility plugin, which allows for control over which nodes
see other nodes (useful for mesh work.)

It doesn't yet implement sta/adhoc/hostap modes but these are quite
feasible to implement.

Monthadar uses it to do 802.11s mesh verification.

The userland tools will be committed in a follow-up commit.
