NAME
       cfg80211_rx_mlme_mgmt - notification of processed MLME management frame

SYNOPSIS
       void cfg80211_rx_mlme_mgmt(struct net_device * dev, const u8 * buf, size_t len);

ARGUMENTS
       dev
           network device

       buf
           authentication frame (header + body)

       len
           length of the frame data

DESCRIPTION
       This function is called whenever an authentication, disassociation or deauthentication
       frame has been received and processed in station mode. After being asked to authenticate
       via cfg80211_ops::auth the driver must call either this function or cfg80211_auth_timeout.
       After being asked to associate via cfg80211_ops::assoc the driver must call either this
       function or cfg80211_auth_timeout. While connected, the driver must calls this for
       received and processed disassociation and deauthentication frames. If the frame couldn't
       be used because it was unprotected, the driver must call the function
       cfg80211_rx_unprot_mlme_mgmt instead.

       This function may sleep. The caller must hold the corresponding wdev's mutex.
