From: Gautam Kumar Shukla <gautams@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
The new feature flag allows the driver to indicate that it can
offload the 4-way handshake for WPA/RSN-PSK. With the
wiphy::features flag being used up this patch adds a new
field wiphy::ext_features. Considering extensibility this
new field is declared as a byte array.

V2:
- rename helper functions.
- make helper function static inline.
- derive ext_feature array size from extended feature count.
