Subject: mac80211: Add define for TX headroom reserved by mac80211 itself.
From: Gertjan van Wingerde <gwingerde@gmail.com>
commit d24deb2580823ab0b8425790c6f5d18e2ff749d8 upstream.
Add a definition of the amount of TX headroom reserved by mac80211 itself
for its own purposes. Also add BUILD_BUG_ON to validate the value.
This define can then be used by drivers to request additional TX headroom
in the most efficient manner.
