nl80211: New command for adding extra IE(s) into management frames
A new nl80211 command, NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IE, can be used to
add arbitrary IE data into the end of management frames. The interface
allows extra IEs to be configured for each management frame subtype, but
only some of them (ProbeReq, ProbeResp, Auth, (Re)AssocReq, Deauth,
Disassoc) are currently accepted in mac80211 implementation.
This makes it easier to implement IEEE 802.11 extensions like WPS and
FT that add IE(s) into some management frames. In addition, this can
be useful for testing and experimentation purposes.

iwl3945: report killswitch changes even if the interface is down
Currently iwl3945 is not able to report hw-killswitch events while the
interface is down. This has implications on user space tools (like
NetworkManager) relying on rfkill notifications to bring the interface
up once the wireless gets enabled through a hw killswitch.
Thus, enable the device already in iwl3945_pci_probe instead of iwl3945_up
and poll the CSR_GP_CNTRL register to update the killswitch state every
two seconds. The polling is only needed on 3945 hardware as this adapter
does not use interrupts to signal rfkill changes to the driver (in case no
firmware is loaded). The firmware loading is still done in iwl3945_up.

This modifies hardware flags for powersave to support three different
flags:
* IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS - indicates general PS support
* IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK - indicates nullfunc sending in software
* IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS - indicates dynamic PS on the device
It also adds documentation for all this which explains how to set the
various flags.
Additionally, it fixes a few things:
* a spot where && was used to test flags
* enable CONF_PS only when associated again

Okay, here is the first of the five patches. After applying all
of them you should be able to build/join huge city mesh networks
(e.g. with the OLSR protocol) with the most of the mac80211 wireless
drivers by setting a fixed BSSID in the ad hoc mode. (If you found no
other bug/problem.) This was not specified in the original standard,
but is a widely used de facto standard.
The first patch now completely disallow to set multicast MAC addresses
as BSSID. The behavior before was really strange.

power_level in ieee80211_conf is being used for more than one
purpose. It being used as user configured power limit and the
final power limit given to the driver. By doing so, except very
first time, the tx power limit is taken from min(chan->max_power,
local->hw.conf.power_level) which is not what we want. This patch
defines a new memeber in ieee80211_conf which is meant only for
user configured power limit.
