cfg80211: export expected throughput through get_station()
Users may need information about the expected throughput towards a given peer. This value is supposed to consider the size overhead generated by the 802.11 header. This value is exported in kbps through the get_station() API by including it into the station_info object. Moreover, it is sent to user space when replying to the nl80211 GET_STATION command. This information will be useful to the batman-adv module which will use it for its new metric computation.
