New Broadcom firmwares mark monitor mode packets using a newly defined bit in the flags field. Use it to filter them out and pass to the monitor interface. These defines were found in bcmmsgbuf.h from SDK. As not every firmware generates radiotap header this commit introduces BRCMF_FEAT_MONITOR_FMT_RADIOTAP flag. It has to be has based on firmware capabilities. If not present brcmf_netif_mon_rx() will assume packet is a raw 802.11 frame and will prepend it with an empty radiotap header. This new code is limited to the msgbuf protocol at this point. Adding support for SDIO/USB devices will require some extra work (possibly a new firmware release).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
