2008-09-15mac80211: share STA information with driverJohannes Berg
This patch changes mac80211 to share some more data about stations with drivers. Should help iwlwifi and ath9k when they get around to updating, and might also help with implementing rate control algorithms without internals.

2008-09-15mac80211 hwsim: verify vif pointersJohannes Berg
mac80211-hwsim is a debugging tool for mac80211, and as such it can very well verify that mac80211 isn't passing junk to drivers, especially the vif pointer is prone to this because for vlan interfaces the AP interface pointer needs to be passed. This makes mac80211-hwsim add a magic cookie to the private vif area and verify it whenever an operation is called that gets a vif pointer.

2008-09-15mac80211: use nl80211 interface typesJohannes Berg
There's really no reason for mac80211 to be using its own interface type defines. Use the nl80211 types and simplify the configuration code a bit: there's no need to translate them any more now.

2008-09-15libertas: remove unused generic RESET commandDan Williams
The generic reset command is unused. Each interface type needs to handle the reset command differently since after reset, the firmware is dead and interface-specific mechanisms must be used to reinitialize the card.

2008-09-11iwlwifi: fix searching for best rate in new search columnGuy Cohen
This patch fixes a bug in Rate Scaling. When moving from SISO to MIMO we need to choose the lowest higher rate, instead of choosing the highest in MIMO. No doing this can lead to a high packet loss in the highest rate in MIMO, leading not to move MIMO although lower in MIMO could give a better TPT.

2008-09-11iwlwifi: use the results from disconnected antenna algorithmGrumbach, Emmanuel
This patch makes usage of the results from disconnected antenna alg to know how many antennas are connected. It also synchronizes between the chain noise alg and the W/A that disables power management during association. All the antennas must be enables during the chain noise algorithm. Hence, power management is restored only after the completion of the algorithm. In the future, we will need to update the AP that we don't support MIMO if there is only one antenna connected. We also need to update the rate scaling algorithm.
