This patch will add the support to control the transmit power for traffic
to a station associated with the AP. Userspace provide the transmit power
value in mBm units and the allowed range is from 0 to 70. Underlying FW
will enforce that the maximum tx power will be based on the regulatory
requirements. If the user given transmit power is greater than the allowed
tx power in the given channel, then the FW will use the maximum tx power
in the same channel.
When 0 is sent to the FW as tx power, it will revert to the automatic tx
power for the station.
