nl80211: Allow GET_INTERFACE dumps to be filtered
This patch allows GET_INTERFACE dumps to be filtered based on
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY or NL80211_ATTR_WDEV. The documentation for
GET_INTERFACE mentions that this is possible:
"Request an interface's configuration; either a dump request on
a %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY or ..."
However, this behavior has not been implemented until now.
Johannes: rewrite most of the patch:
* use nl80211_dump_wiphy_parse() to also allow passing an interface
to be able to dump its siblings
* fix locking (must hold rtnl around using nl80211_fam.attrbuf)
* make init self-contained instead of relying on other cb->args
