/**
* DOC: STA information lifetime rules
*
* STA info structures (&struct sta_info) are managed in a hash table
* for faster lookup and a list for iteration. They are managed using
* RCU, i.e. access to the list and hash table is protected by RCU.
*
* Upon allocating a STA info structure with sta_info_alloc(), the caller
* owns that structure. It must then insert it into the hash table using
* either sta_info_insert() or sta_info_insert_rcu(); only in the latter
* case (which acquires an rcu read section but must not be called from
* within one) will the pointer still be valid after the call. Note that
* the caller may not do much with the STA info before inserting it, in
* particular, it may not start any mesh peer link management or add
* encryption keys.
*
* When the insertion fails (sta_info_insert()) returns non-zero), the
* structure will have been freed by sta_info_insert()!
*
* Station entries are added by mac80211 when you establish a link with a
* peer. This means different things for the different type of interfaces
* we support. For a regular station this mean we add the AP sta when we
* receive an association response from the AP. For IBSS this occu
