This patch removes a bunch of inline abuse from wext. Most functions
that were marked inline are only used once so the compiler will inline
them anyway, others are used multiple times but there's no requirement
for them to be inline since they aren't in any fast paths.

This patch kills a whole bunch of code that can only ever be used by
defining some things in wext.c. Also, the things that are printed are
mostly useless since the API is fairly well-tested.

This patch creates the core cfg80211 code along with some sysfs bits.
This is a stripped down version to allow mac80211 to function, but
doesn't include any configuration yet except for creating and removing
virtual interfaces.
This patch includes the nl80211 header file but it only contains the
interface types which the cfg80211 interface for creating virtual
interfaces relies on.

This patch refactors the wireless Kconfig all over and already
