mac80211: remove port control enable switch, clean up sta flags
This patch removes the 802.1X port acess control enable flag since it is not required. Instead, set the authorized flag for each station that we normally communicate with (WDS peers, IBSS peers and APs we're associated to) and require hostapd to set the authorized flag for all stations when port control is not enabled. Also, since I was working in that area, this documents station flags and removes the unused "permanent" one. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.
