Finally! This is what you've all been waiting for!
This patch makes cfg80211 take care of wext emulation
_completely_ by itself, drivers that don't need things
cfg80211 doesn't do yet don't even need to be aware of

1) there is a struct, iwl_cmd, that contains both driver

2) the on-stack data and the command metadata share a
structure by embedding the latter in the former, which
is also rather confusing because it leads to weird
unions and similarly odd constructs
3) each txq always has enough space for 256 commands,
even if only 32 end up being used
This patch fixes these things:
1) rename iwl_cmd to iwl_device_cmd and keep track of
command metadata and device command separately, in
two arrays in each tx queue
2) remove the 'meta' member from iwl_host_cmd and only

mac80211: fix MLME issuing of probe requests while scanning
We were issuing probe requests to the associated AP on the wrong
band by having our beacon timer loss trigger while we are scanning.
When we would scan the timer could hit and force us to send a
probe request to the AP but with a chance we'd be on the wrong band.
This leads to finding no usable bitrate but we should not get so
far on the xmit path. We should not be trying to send these probe
request frames so prevent ieee80211_mgd_probe_ap() from sending
these.
As it turns out all callers of ieee80211_mgd_probe_ap() need this
check so we just move the scan check there. This means we can remove
the recenlty added check during ieee80211_sta_monitor_work().
Additionally we now fix a race condition added by the patch
"mac80211: do not monitor the connection while scanning" which
had the same check in ieee80211_sta_conn_mon_timer(). The race
happens because the timer routine *does* a valid check for
scanning but after it queues work into the mac80211 workqueue
the work callback can kick off with scanning enabled and cause
the same issue we were trying to avoid.
The more appropriate solution would be to disable the respective
timers during scan and re-enable them after scan but requires more
complex code and testing.

software scan but we might as well be on the operating channel to RX/TX.
While "SCAN_SW_SCANNING" is set during the whole scan "SCAN_OFF_CHANNEL"
is set when leaving the operating channel and unset when coming back.
Introduce two new scan states "SCAN_LEAVE_OPER_CHANNEL" and
"SCAN_ENTER_OPER_CHANNEL" which basically implement the functionality we

cfg80211: make aware of net namespaces
In order to make cfg80211/nl80211 aware of network namespaces,
we have to do the following things:
* del_virtual_intf method takes an interface index rather
than a netdev pointer - simply change this
* nl80211 uses init_net a lot, it changes to use the sender's
network namespace
* scan requests use the interface index, hold a netdev pointer
and reference instead
* we want a wiphy and its associated virtual interfaces to be
in one netns together, so
- we need to be able to change ns for a given interface, so
export dev_change_net_namespace()
- for each virtual interface set the NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL
flag, and clear that flag only when the wiphy changes ns,
to disallow breaking this invariant
* when a network namespace goes away, we need to reparent the
wiphy to init_net
* cfg80211 users that support creating virtual interfaces must
create them in the wiphy's namespace, currently this affects
only mac80211
The end result is that you can now switch an entire wiphy into
a different network namespace with the new command
iw phy#<idx> set netns <pid>
and all virtual interfaces will follow (or the operation fails).

mac80211: cooperate more with network namespaces
There are still two places in mac80211 that hardcode
the initial net namespace (init_net). One of them is
mandated by cfg80211 and will be removed by a separate
patch, the other one is used for finding the network
device of a pending packet via its ifindex.
Remove the latter use by keeping track of the device
pointer itself, via the vif pointer, and avoid it
going stale by dropping pending frames for a given
interface when the interface is removed.
To keep track of the vif pointer for the correct
interface, change the info->control.vif pointer's
internal use to always be the correct vif, and only
move it to the vif the driver expects (or NULL for
monitor interfaces and injected packets) right before
giving the packet to the driver.

mac80211: Fix regression in mesh forwarding path.
The removal of the master netdev broke the mesh forwarding path. This patch
fixes it by using the new internal 'pending' queue.
As a result of this change, mesh forwarding no longer does the inefficient
802.11 -> 802.3 -> 802.11 conversion that was done before.
[Changes since v1]
Suggested by Johannes:
- Select queue before adding to mpath queue
- ieee80211_add_pending_skb -> ieee80211_add_pending_skbs
- Remove unnecessary header wme.h

mac80211: remove master netdev
With the internal 'pending' queue system in place, we can simply
put packets there instead of pushing them off to the master dev,
getting rid of the master interface completely.

net: export __dev_addr_sync/__dev_addr_unsync
For mac80211, with the master netdev removal, we need to be
able to sync a multicast address list onto another list that
is not tracked within a netdev, so we need access to the
functions doing that.

adm8211: remove uneeded code during suspend/resume
mac80211 drivers do not need to stop the software queues
