Don't accept redundant PREQs for a given destination. This fixes a
problem under high load:
kernel: [20386.250913] mesh_queue_preq: 235 callbacks suppressed
kernel: [20386.253335] Mesh HWMP (mesh0): PREQ node queue full
kernel: [20386.253352] Mesh HWMP (mesh0): PREQ node queue full
(...)
The 802.11s protocol has a provision to limit the rate of path requests
(PREQs) are transmitted (dot11MeshHWMPpreqMinInterval) but there was no
limit on the rate at which PREQs were being queued up. There is a valid
reason for queuing PREQs: this way we can even out PREQ bursts. But
queueing multiple PREQs for the same destination is useless.

Get rid of the ieee80211_tx_status_rtap_hdr struct and instead build the
rtap header dynamically. This makes it easier to extend the rtap header
generation in the future.
Add ieee80211_tx_radiotap_len to calculate the expected size of the
rtap header before generating it. Since we can't check if the rtap
header fits into the requested headroom during compile time anymore
add a WARN_ON_ONCE.
Also move the actual rtap header generation into its own function.

This was another workaround for truesize "bugs".
The reason we did this was that when we orphaned
the SKB it wouldn't be truesize-checked later.
Now that the check is gone (and we just charge
the former smaller size to the socket) there's
no longer a reason to orphan the skb here.
Keep the skb charged to the socket until it is
really freed (or orphaned in TX status). This
helps flow control and allows us to get at the
socket later for other purposes.

There's no need to adjust truesize.
The history of this was that we always ran into
skb_truesize_bug (via skb_truesize_check) which
has since been removed in commit 92a0acce18.
skb_truesize_check() checked that truesize was
bigger or equal to the actual allocation, which
would trigger in mac80211 due to header adding.
The check no longer exists and we shouldn't be
messing with the truesize anwyay.

1) by moving it out of tx_data.flags, we can in

not doing fragmentation may be honoured
