Radar detection event could have resulted in the driver interface
instance getting deinitialized and the related memory freed in the
middle of the loop. This was not an issue when the event was passed only
into a single interface, but it became an issue when the loop tried to
send it to all interfaces. If the driver were removed, that loop check
would have used freed memory. Avoid this by explicitly checking that the

With nl80211 we need to supress the kernel generated event for any
disconnect and deauthenticate. This code is a bit fragile, as it
assumes that an event will happen. Commit b898b65582 ("nl80211: Do
not ignore disconnect event in case of !drv->associated") changed this
to only disconnect when the driver knows it is associated (apparently
required for P2P), however, deauthentication may also occur without
being associated yet.
Looking at the issue, what we are really interested in is whether the
event belongs to a disconnect/deauth command that we have send
ourselves. Any event happening after the disconnect/deauth completes
should not be suppressed (or after the next connect/auth as that would
be sufficient). We therefore need to know from the event stream
whether events were generated before or after disconnect/deauth
command completion.
To do so, send a simple command on the nl_event socket. As this will
be returned back to us in the correct order with regard to the events.
We can therefore use it to safely reset our internal
ignore_next_local_{deauth,disconnect} variables.

The max transmit power of Standard Power (SP) Access Points (AP) on
6 GHz band and APs on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands is limited by effective
isotropic radiated power (EIRP), while the max transmit power of Low
Power Indoor (LPI) APs on 6 GHz Band is limited by power spectral
density (PSD). Therefore the max transmit power of LPI APs grows as the
channel width increases, similar to the noise power which has constant
PSD.
Adjust the SNR of BSSes based on the transmit power config and max
channel width. EIRP limited APs usually have constant max transmit power
on different channel widths, their SNR decreases on larger channel width
because the noise power is higher, while PSD limited APs have constant
SNR over all channel widths.
