This driver uses the core orinoco modules for the bulk of
the functionality. The low level hermes routines (for local bus
cards) are replaced, the driver supplies its own ndo_xmit_start
function, and locking is done with the _bh variant.
Some recent functionality is not available to the USB cards yet
(firmware loading and WPA).
Out-of-tree driver originally written by Manuel Estrada Sainz.
Thanks to Mark Davis for supplying hardware to test the updates.

With the WLAN_PRE80211 drivers moved to drivers/staging, this
distinction becomes unnecessary.

Refactor wext to
* split out iwpriv handling
* split out iwspy handling
* split out procfs support
* allow cfg80211 to have wireless extensions compat code
w/o CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT
After this, drivers need to
- select WIRELESS_EXT - for wext support
- select WEXT_PRIV - for iwpriv support
- select WEXT_SPY - for iwspy support
except cfg80211 -- which gets new hooks in wext-core.c
and can then get wext handlers without CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT.
Wireless extensions procfs support is auto-selected
based on PROC_FS and anything that requires the wext core
(i.e. WIRELESS_EXT or CFG80211_WEXT).

Initialise and register a wiphy.
Store the orinoco_private structure in the new wiphy, and use the
net_device private area to store the wireless_dev. This results in a
change to the way we navigate from a net_device to the driver private
orinoco_private, which we encapsulate in the inline function ndev_priv.
Most of the remaining calls to netdev_priv are thus replaced by
ndev_priv.
We can immediately rely on cfg80211 to handle SIOCGIWNAME, so
orinoco_ioctl_getname is removed.

Since driver now lives in separate subdirectory, move Kconfig entries
in own file so they can be tweaked indepndently. It complements
"orinoco: Move sources to a subdirectory".
