mac80211: fix mesh advertisement
When a mac80211-based driver advertises mesh mode
support, this will be advertised to userspace.
However, if mac80211 was compiled without mesh
support, then that won't actually be true. Fix
this by removing the bit for mesh if mesh isn't
compiled in.
Since this synchronizes what we advertise to
cfg80211 and actually support, it means we can
now rely on cfg80211's interface type checks
and need not check again in mac80211.

rt2x00: Fix max TX power settings
During initialization each driver reads the default TX power
for each individual channel. However mac80211 only accepts the
maximum value (which is also handled as default value).
As a result, the TX power of the device was being limited to
the default value, which is often quite low compared to the
real maximum acceptable value.
This patch allows each driver to set the maximum value on a
per-channel basis which is forwarded to mac80211. The default
value will be preserved for now, in case we want to update
mac80211 to differentiate between the maximum and default txpower.

current signature. Also remove the unnecessary validation of the
channel. Those channel info are constructed in iwlwifi driver
and mac80211 will never modify the content of the struct. Also
everytime before this function is called the channel info has
been validated already (as a paranoid check).

When iwl_mac_config() is called by mac80211, the channel pointer
hw->conf->channel can potentially change, resulting in mismatch
band and channel number when configuring RXON command. To avoid
this situation, save the channel pointer in local variables
and validate the channel before using it. Note that priv->mutex
is locked during the whole function so the local variables are safe.
Same change is applied to iwl_mac_channel_switch() since basically
it copies code from iwl_mac_config().
Also removed an outdated comment in the flow.

iwlwifi: do not call ieee80211_frequency_to_channel
A few cases in iwlwifi driver function ieee80211_frequency_to_channel()
is called to get channel number from center frequency. This is not needed
since the channel number is already saved in hw_value field of struct
ieee80211_channel in function iwlcore_init_geos(). So replace those function
calls with hw_value field of struct ieee80211_channel.

mac80211-hwsim: allow configuring IBSS
It will not look standard-compliant in a sniffer
because because it doesn't
* sync TSF
* adjust the TSF in beacons
* send beacons at TBTT
* cancel beacons when another phy sends
However, it does allow testing the configuration
and parts of the mac80211 code for IBSS and as
such is still useful.

wireless: move documentation books
This moves mac80211 documentation into a new
802.11 bookset and also adds a cfg80211 book
to the set. All of this is rather incomplete,
but it's easier to work with big code moving
as a separate patch.

Like other vendors, p54* devices have a checksum for
the EEPROM descriptor data. This patch enhances the
parser code to generate and verify the data fields,
before initializing the radio-chip on the card.
Note:
If you have to bootstrap an alternative EEPROM image
for your device and you don't know how to generate a
valid crc ccitt checksum, you should take a look at:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/chr/p54tools.git
The "checksum" utility loads a binary p54 EEPROM blob
(use the -f switch, to skip the check) and applies
the correct crc automatically.
