Add a flag attribute to use in ap settings to indicate userspace supports offloading of SA Query procedures to driver. Also add AP SME device feature flag to advertise that the SA Query procedures offloaded to driver when userspace indicates support for offloading of SA Query procedures. Driver handles SA Query procedures in driver's SME it self and skip sending SA Query request or response frames to userspace when userspace indicates support for SA Query procedures offload. But if userspace doesn't advertise support for SA Query procedures offload driver shall not offload SA Query procedures handling. Also userspace with SA Query procedures offload capability shall skip SA Query specific validations when driver indicates support for handling SA Query procedures.
