Initiate the conversion of libipw to the new cfg80211 configuration API.
For now, leave CONFIG_IPW2200_PROMISCUOUS stuff alone. Eventually
migrate it to cfg80211 when the add/del/change_virtual_intf methods
are implemented.
(v2: Fix unconditional wiphy_unregister in libipw which was causing
problems for ipw2100, somewhat based on prior attempted fix
by Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com>. Previously both original version of
this patch and Zhu Yi's fix attempt were reverted due to
discovery of regressions. -- JWL)

This reverts commit b8ecd988b1.
Due to poor API call balancing by me, this commit not only broke ipw2200
if it can't find it's firmware, it broke ipw2100 basically anytime you
removed the module. At this point in the cycle, let's just put it back
to a sane state and try again next time...

For non-monitor interfaces, the syntax for alloc_ieee80211/free_80211
is wrong. Because alloc_ieee80211 only creates (wiphy_new) a wiphy, but
free_80211() does wiphy_unregister() also. This is only correct when
the later wiphy_register() is called successfully, which apparently
is not the case for your fw doesn't exist one.

Mostly just simple conversions:
* ray_cs had bogus return of NET_TX_LOCKED but driver
was not using NETIF_F_LLTX
* hostap and ipw2x00 had some code that returned value
from a called function that also had to change to return netdev_tx_t

This eliminates the dual definition of ieee80211_channel (and possibly
others), further clarifying who defines what and paving the way for
inclusion of cfg80211.h.
