After a scan, we weren't switching back to the original channel if we
were associated with an AP. So NetworkManager's periodic scans would
disrupt connectivity until the ESSID was manually set again. Fix that.

Version 2 of the patch. Added checks for version 0
and proper from/to DS bits. Even in promisc
mode we won't receive packets from another BSSes.
bcm43xx_rx() contains code to filter out packets from
foreign BSSes and decide whether to call ieee80211_rx
or ieee80211_rx_mgt. This is not bcm specific.
Patch adapts that code and adds it to 80211
as ieee80211_rx_any() function.

This patch fixes a problem in the ieee80211 probe response and beacon
reception code that would use the packet statistics for a network even
if they were received on a channel other than that which the network
exists on.
This causes a problem in overlapping channels where, for example, a
strong AP on channel 2 could have its beacons received on channels 1 and
3, but at much lower signal levels. If scanning was done sequentially,
this means the beacon received on channel 3 would update the AP's signal
level as being much lower than it really is, which subsequently could
cause that AP to be passed over and an alternate AP selected.

Fix QoS is not active even the network and the card is QOS enabled.
The problem is we pass the wrong ieee80211_network address to
ipw_handle_beacon/ipw_handle_probe_response, thus the
ieee80211_network->qos_data.active will not be set, causing the driver
not sending QoS frames at all.

I have come to consider BUG_ON generally harmful. The idea of an assert is
to prevent a program to execute past a point where its state is known
erroneous, thus preventing it from dealing more damage to the data
(or hiding the traces of malfunction). The problem is, in kernel this harm
has to be balanced against the harm of forced reboot.
The last straw was our softmac tree, where "iwlist eth1 scan" causes
a lockup. It is absolutely frivolus and provides no advantages a normal
assert has to provide. In fact, doing this impedes debugging.

This patch creates two functions ieee80211_wx_set_auth and
ieee80211_wx_get_auth that can be used by drivers for the wireless
extension handlers instead of writing their own, if the implementation
should be software only.
These patches enable using bcm43xx devices with WPA and this seems (as
far as I can tell) to be the only difference between the stock ieee80211
and softmac's ieee80211 left.

To support IEEE 802.11h in IBSS, an ibss_dfs field is added to struct
ieee80211_network. In IBSS, if one STA sends a beacon with DFS info
(for radar detection), all the other STAs should receive and store
this DFS. All STAs should send the DFS as one of the information
element in the beacon they are scheduled to send (if possible) in
the future.
Since the ibss_dfs has variable length, it must be allocated
dynamically. ieee80211_network_reset() is added to clear the ibss_dfs
field. ieee80211_network_free() is also updated to free the ibss_dfs
field if it is not NULL.
