a8f63a0717 mac80211: update to backports-4.14-rc2
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.

b94177e10f ath9k: add stability fixes for long standing hang issues (FS#13, #34, #373, #383)
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

072937888e mac80211: make it work with 3.18.12+
3.18.12 backported 61ada528dea028331e99e8ceaed87c683ad25de2 ("sched/wait:
Provide infrastructure to deal with nested blocking") from 3.19, causing
the following error on load:

[   13.588000] compat: exports duplicate symbol woken_wake_function (owned by kernel)

Fix this by guarding it with a check for 3.18.11 or earlier instead of
3.19.
