Thomas Pedersen 942ba88ba9 nl80211: add KHz frequency offset for most wifi commands
cfg80211 recently gained the ability to understand a
frequency offset component in KHz. Expose this in nl80211
through the new attributes NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ_OFFSET,
NL80211_FREQUENCY_ATTR_OFFSET,
NL80211_ATTR_CENTER_FREQ1_OFFSET, and
NL80211_BSS_FREQUENCY_OFFSET.

These add support to send and receive a KHz offset
component with the following NL80211 commands:

- NL80211_CMD_FRAME
- NL80211_CMD_GET_SCAN
- NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE
- NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE
- NL80211_CMD_CONNECT

Along with any other command which takes a chandef, ie:

- NL80211_CMD_SET_CHANNEL
- NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY
- NL80211_CMD_START_AP
- NL80211_CMD_RADAR_DETECT
- NL80211_CMD_NOTIFY_RADAR
- NL80211_CMD_CHANNEL_SWITCH
- NL80211_JOIN_IBSS
- NL80211_CMD_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL
- NL80211_CMD_JOIN_OCB
- NL80211_CMD_JOIN_MESH
- NL80211_CMD_TDLS_CHANNEL_SWITCH

If the driver advertises a band containing channels with
frequency offset, it must also verify support for
frequency offset channels in its cfg80211 ops, or return
an error.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
