Previous version was using incorrect union structures for non-AP
interfaces when adding and removing max_ratectrl_rateidx and
force_unicast_rateidx entries. Depending on the vif type, this ended
up in corrupting debugfs entries since the dentries inside different
union structures ended up going being on top of eachother.. As the
end result, debugfs files were being left behind with references to
freed data (instant kernel oops on access) and directories were not
removed properly when unloading mac80211 drivers. This patch fixes
those issues by using only a single union structure based on the vif
type.

The previous code was using IWEVCUSTOM to report IEs from AssocReq and
AssocResp frames into user space. This can easily hit the 256 byte
limit (IW_CUSTOM_MAX) with APs that include number of vendor IEs in
AssocResp. This results in the event message not being sent and dmesg
showing "wlan0 (WE) : Wireless Event too big (366)" type of errors.
Convert mac80211 to use IWEVASSOCREQIE/IWEVASSOCRESPIE to avoid the
issue of being unable to send association IEs as wireless events. These
newer event types use binary encoding and larger maximum size
(IW_GENERIC_IE_MAX = 1024), so the likelyhood of not being able to send
the IEs is much smaller than with IWEVCUSTOM. As an extra benefit, the
code is also quite a bit simpler since there is no need to allocate an
extra buffer for hex encoding.

This patch replaces net_device arguments to mac80211 internal functions
with ieee80211_{local,sub_if_data} as appropriate.
It also does the same for many 802.11s mesh functions, and changes the
mesh path table to be indexed on sub_if_data rather than net_device.
If the mesh part needs to be a separate patch let me know, but since
mesh uses a lot of mac80211 functions which were being converted anyway,
the changes go hand-in-hand somewhat.
This patch probably does not convert all the functions which could be

Currently, almost every interface type has a 'bss' pointer
pointing to BSS information. This BSS information, however,
is for a _local_ BSS, not for the BSS we joined, so having
it on a STA mode interface makes little sense, but now they
have it pointing to the master device, which is an AP mode
virtual interface. However, except for some bitrate control
data, this pointer is only used in AP/VLAN modes (for power
saving stations.)
Overall, it is not necessary to even have the master netdev
be a valid virtual interface, and it doesn't have to be on
the list of interfaces either.
This patch changes the master netdev to be special, it now
- no longer is on the list of virtual interfaces, which
lets me remove a lot of tests for that
- no longer has sub_if_data attached, since that isn't used
Additionally, this patch changes some vlan/ap mode handling
that is related to these 'bss' pointers described above (but
in the VLAN case they actually make sense because there they
point to the AP they belong to); it also adds some debugging
code to IEEE80211_DEV_TO_SUB_IF to validate it is not called
on the master netdev any more.

The old infrastructure was:
- the default algorithm is built into mac80211
- other algorithms get into their own modules
The implementation of this complicated scheme was horrible
(just look at net/mac80211/Makefile), and anyone adding a new
algorithm would most likely not get it right at his first attempt.
This patch therefore builds all enabled algorithms into the mac80211
module.
The user interface for the rate control algorithms changes as follows:
- first the user can choose which algorithms to enable (currently only
MAC80211_RC_PID is available)
- if more than one algorithm is enabled (currently not possible since
only one algorithm is present) the user then chooses the default one
Note:
- MAC80211_RC_PID is always enables for CONFIG_EMBEDDED=n
Technical changes:
- all selected algorithms get into the mac80211 module
- net/mac80211/Makefile can now become much less complicated
- support for rc80211_pid_algo.c being modular is no longer required
- this includes unexporting mesh_plink_broken

This reverts commit 608961a5ec.
The problem is that the mac80211 stack not only needs to be able to
muck with the link-level headers, it also might need to mangle all of
the packet data if doing sw wireless encryption.
This fixes kernel bugzilla #10903. Thanks to Didier Raboud (for the
bugzilla report), Andrew Prince (for bisecting), Johannes Berg (for
bringing this bisection analysis to my attention), and Ilpo (for
trying to analyze this purely from the TCP side).
In 2.6.27 we can take another stab at this, by using something like
skb_cow_data() when the TX path of mac80211 ends up with a non-NULL
tx->key. The ESP protocol code in the IPSEC stack can be used as a
model for implementation.

Three major portions to this change:
1) Add IW_EV_COMPAT_LCP_LEN, IW_EV_COMPAT_POINT_OFF,
and IW_EV_COMPAT_POINT_LEN helper defines.
2) Delete iw_stream_check_add_*(), they are unused.
3) Add iw_request_info argument to iwe_stream_add_*(), and use it to
size the event and pointer lengths correctly depending upon whether
IW_REQUEST_FLAG_COMPAT is set or not.
4) The mechanical transformations to the drivers and wireless stack
bits to get the iw_request_info passed down into the routines
modified in #3. Also, explicit references to IW_EV_LCP_LEN are
replaced with iwe_stream_lcp_len(info).

In IBSS mode prior to join/creation of new IBSS it is possible that
a frame from unknown station is received and an ibss_add_sta() is
called. This will cause a warning in rate_lowest_index() since the
list of supported rates of our station is not initialized yet.
The fix is to add ibss stations with a rate we received that frame
at; this single-element set will be extended later based on beacon
data. Also there is no need to store stations from a foreign IBSS.
