operate on different channels. The mac80211 virtual interface support
is designed only for single channel operation and as such, it is not
suitable for this type of use. Anyway, it can be used on top of the
virtual radio concept, if desired (e.g., use two virtual radios to
handle two channels and then add multiple mac80211 virtual interfaces
on top of each virtual radio).
The new struct ath_wiphy is now registered as the driver data
structure for wiphy. This structure has a pointer to the shared (among
virtual wiphys of the same physical radio) struct ath_softc data. The
primary wiphy maintains the allocated memory for ath_softc. Secondary
(virtual) wiphys will only allocate the new ath_wiphy structure.

device for testing routing. So implement implement a configurable
MTU.
For consistency I drop packets on the receive side when they are
larger than the MTU. I count those drops. And I allow
a little padding for vlan headers.
I also test the mtu when a new device is created with netlink
because that path currently bypasses the current mtu setting
code.
