nl80211: Optional IEs into scan request
This extends the NL80211_CMD_TRIGGER_SCAN command to allow applications to specify a set of information element(s) to be added into Probe Request frames with NL80211_ATTR_IE. This provides support for the MLME-SCAN.request primitive parameter VendorSpecificInfo and can be used, e.g., to implement WPS scanning.
