All but two drivers have now stopped using the two
deprecated members radio_enabled and beacon_int,
so it's about time to remove them for good.

Over time, a whole bunch of drivers have come up
with their own scheme to delay the configure_filter
operation to a workqueue. To be able to simplify
things, allow configure_filter to sleep, and add
a new prepare_multicast callback that drivers that
need the multicast address list implement. This new
callback must be atomic, but most drivers either
don't care or just calculate a hash which can be
done atomically and then uploaded to the hardware
non-atomically.
A cursory look suggests that at76c50x-usb, ar9170,
mwl8k (which is actually very broken now), rt2x00,
wl1251, wl1271 and zd1211 should make use of this
new capability.

We need to unregister our ieee80211_hw before resetting the chip, as
the former causes firmware commands to be issued which will time out
once the chip has been reset.

When we go into out-of-memory and fail to allocate skbuffs to
refill the receive ring with, rxq_process can end up running into
a receive ring entry that is marked as host-owned but doesn't have
an associated skbuff. If this happens, we must break out of the
rx processing loop instead of trying to process the descriptor.

Within mac80211, we often need to copy the rx status into
skb->cb. This is wasteful, as drivers could be building it
in there to start with. This patch changes the API so that
drivers are expected to pass the RX status in skb->cb, now
accessible as IEEE80211_SKB_RXCB(skb). It also updates all
drivers to pass the rx status in there, but only by making
them memcpy() it into place before the call to the receive
function (ieee80211_rx(_irqsafe)). Each driver can now be
optimised on its own schedule.

There really is no need to have a separate struct for a
single variable. The fact that it exists is due to the
code legacy, but we can remove that now. Very simple.

The config_interface method is a little strange, it contains the
BSSID and beacon updates, while bss_info_changed contains most
other BSS information for each interface. This patch removes
config_interface and rolls all the information it previously
passed to drivers into bss_info_changed.

This patch fixes a build warning in mwl8.c.
(Marvell TOPDOG wireless driver)
The warning it fixes is: "large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type."
The rx_ctrl member of the mwl8k_rx_desc struct is 8 bit (__u8 ), whereas trying
to assign it a 32 bit value (which is returned from cpu_to_le32())
causes the compiler to issue
a truncation warning.

Add a driver for Marvell 88w8xxx TOPDOG PCI/PCIe wireless parts.
This initial version supports the 88w8687 802.11b/g PCIe part on
channels 1-11, and only STA mode is currently implemented.
