This updates mac80211 to backprots-4.14-rc2.
This was compile and runtime tested with ath9k, ath10k and b43
with multiple stations and ieee80211w and in different scenarios by many
other people.
To create the backports-4.14-rc2-1.tar.xz use this repository:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/backports/backports.git
from tag v4.14-rc2-1
Then run this:
./gentree.py --git-revision v4.14-rc2 --clean <path to linux repo> ../backports-4.14-rc2-1
This also adapts the ath10k-ct and mt76 driver to the changed cfg80211
APIs and syncs the nl80211.h file in iw with the new version from
backports-4.14-rc2.

The radio would stop communicating completely. This issue was easiest to
trigger on AR913x devices, e.g. the TP-Link TL-WR1043ND, but other
hardware was occasionally affected as well.
The most critical issue was a race condition in disabling/enabling IRQs
between the IRQ handler and the IRQ processing tasklet
