iwlwifi: mvm: support station type API
Support change to ADD_STA API to support station types. Each station is assigned its type. This simplifies FW handling of the broadcast and multicast stations: * broadcast station is identified by its type and not the mac address. * multicast queue is no longer treated differently. The opening and closing of it is done by referring to its station. There is no need to specify it in the MAC command. * When disabling TX to all station driver can disable the traffic on multicast station, so FW doesn't have to do it. Change is backward compatible. Change the order of adding and removing the stations according to FW requirements. Signed-off-by: Sara Sharon <sara.sharon@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com>
