Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.
It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.
The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

With firmware 5.220.11.p5, this allows to specify the anycast addresses the
device will listen to.
The anycast address range is C0:27:C0:27:C0:XX where XX goes from 00 to 1F (or
0 to 31 in dec). The value to write on anycast_mask will specify which
addresses the device listens to. Bits in a 32 bit int are numbered from 0
(least significative bit) to 31. A specific address ending in YY will be
listened to if bit YY in the value is set to one.
Examples:
0x00000000 : do not listen to any anycast address
0xFFFFFFFF : listen to every anycast address from :00 to :1F
0x00000013 : listen to anycast addresses :00, :01 and :04

Separate wireless handlers of mshX and ethX. ethX remains as before.
For mshX, it has been disabled set/get essid, wap and set mode. Get mode always
returns "Repeater" and by now we use the Nickname to show if the mesh is active
("Mesh") or not (empty). The rest remains as before.

Previously if a fixed channel was specified along with an SSID,
the channel request would be ignored during the association
process. Instead, when searching for an adhoc or infrastructure
network to join, allow filtering results based on channel so
that the driver doesn't pick a BSS on a different channel than
requested.

The BSS to associate with (in either Infrastructure or IBSS join
operations) is now stored in _one_ place in the association request (the
bss member), not two places as before (pattemptedbss and
curbssparams->bssdescriptor).
Association requests are passed to the necessary association functions
to (a) give them access to the bss member and (b) ensure that
association/join/start setup uses settings from the request, not the
current adapter settings (which may not be valid for the requested
settings).
Because the 'bss' member of the association request is used now, the
command return functions from associate and adhoc join/start need access
to the in-progress association request to update curbssparams when
everything is done. The association worker moves the request from
pending to in-progress for the duration of the association attempt.
