wext: refactor
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).

iwlwifi: Use RTS/CTS as the preferred protection mechanism for 6000 series
When 802.11g was introduced, we had RTS/CTS and CTS-to-Self protection
mechanisms. In an HT Beacon, HT stations use the "Operating Mode" field
in the HT Information Element to determine whether or not to use
protection.
The Operating Mode field has 4 possible settings: 0-3:
Mode 0: If all stations in the BSS are 20/40 MHz HT capable, or if the
BSS is 20/40 MHz capable, or if all stations in the BSS are 20 MHz HT
stations in a 20 MHz BSS
Mode 1: used if there are non-HT stations or APs using the primary or
secondary channels
Mode 2: if only HT stations are associated in the BSS and at least one
20 MHz HT station is associated.
Mode 3: used if one or more non-HT stations are associated in the BSS.
When in operating modes 1 or 3, and the Use_Protection field is 1 in the
Beacon's ERP IE, all HT transmissions must be protected using RTS/CTS or
CTS-to-Self.
By default, CTS-to-self is the preferred protection mechanism for less
overhead and higher throughput; but using the full RTS/CTS will better
protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in
highly-congested environment.
For 6000 series WIFI NIC, RTS/CTS protection mechanism is the
recommended choice for HT traffic based on the HW design.

iwlwifi: clarify and clean up chain settings
The chain settings we currently use in iwlwifi are
rather confusing -- and we also go by the wrong
settings entirely under certain circumstances. To
clean it up, create a new variable in the current
HT config -- single_chain_sufficient -- that tells
us whether we need more than one chain. Calculate
that based on the AP and operating mode (no IBSS
HT implemented -- so no need for multiple chains,
for station mode we use the AP's capabilities).
Additionally, since APs always send disabled SM PS
mode, keeping track of their sm_ps mode isn't very
useful -- doubly not so for our _own_ RX config
since that should depend on our, not the AP's, SM
PS mode.
Finally, document that our configuration of the
number of RX chains used is currently wrong when
in powersave (by adding a comment).
All together this removes the two remaining items
in struct iwl_ht_config that were done wrong there.
For the future, the number of RX chains and some
SM PS handshaking needs to be added to mac80211,
which then needs to tell us, and the new variable
current_ht_config.single_chain_sufficient should
also be calculated by mac80211.

1) 6000 series use different set of sensitivity range table
2) 6000 series has different uCode image size
Also include the new sensitivity parameters needed by sensitivity
algorithm.

cfg80211: assign device type in netdev notifier callback
Instead of having to modify every non-mac80211 for device type assignment,
do this inside the netdev notifier callback of cfg80211. So all drivers
that integrate with cfg80211 will export a proper device type.

net: introduce NETDEV_POST_INIT notifier
For various purposes including a wireless extensions
bugfix, we need to hook into the netdev creation before
before netdev_register_kobject(). This will also ease
doing the dev type assignment that Marcel was working
on for cfg80211 drivers w/o touching them all.

usbnet: Set device type for wlan and wwan devices
For usbnet devices with FLAG_WLAN and FLAG_WWAN set the proper device
type so that uevent contains the correct value. This then allows an easy
identification of the actual underlying technology of the Ethernet device.

usbnet: Use wwan%d interface name for mobile broadband devices
Add support for usbnet based devices like CDC-Ether to indicate that they
are actually mobile broadband devices. In that case use wwan%d as default
interface name.

tunnels: Optimize tx path
We currently dirty a cache line to update tunnel device stats
(tx_packets/tx_bytes). We better use the txq->tx_bytes/tx_packets
counters that already are present in cpu cache, in the cache
line shared with txq->_xmit_lock
This patch extends IPTUNNEL_XMIT() macro to use txq pointer
provided by the caller.
Also &tunnel->dev->stats can be replaced by &dev->stats
