cfg80211: Pass station (extended) capability info to kernel
The information of the peer's capabilities and extended capabilities are required for the driver to perform TDLS Peer UAPSD operations and off channel operations. This information of the peer is passed from user space using NL80211_CMD_SET_STATION command. This commit enhances the function nl80211_set_station to pass the capability information of the peer to the driver. Similarly, there may be need for capability information for other modes, so allow this to be provided with both add_station and change_station.
