cfg80211: allow userspace to control supported rates in scan
Some P2P scans are not allowed to advertise 11b rates, but that is a rather special case so instead of having that, allow userspace to request the rate sets (per band) that are advertised in scan probe request frames. Since it's needed in two places now, factor out some common code parsing a rate array. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
