4ece16a1cf rtl8187: use different ANAPARAM*_OFF values for 8187B
For RTL8187B it seems we need special values too for ANAPARAM*_OFF
values (and not use RTL8187 ones). The ANAPARAM*_OFF values used are the
stock ones read from the hardware after a cold boot.

8318d78a44 cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and driver conversion
This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate
registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The
old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k)
are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations
can be done.

Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the
IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be
unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants
to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty
much required for travelling.

Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA
mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added
to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be
empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to
the BSS conf stuff.

I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit
power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work.

f653211197 Add rtl8180 wireless driver
This patch adds a mac80211 based wireless driver for the rtl8180 and
rtl8185 PCI wireless cards.  Also included are some rtl8187 changes
required due to the relationship between that driver and this one.

Michael Wu is primarily responsible for the initial driver and rtl8185
support.  Andreas Merello provided the additional rtl8180 support.

Thanks to Jukka Ruohonen for the donating a rtl8185 card! It was very
helpful for the rtl8225z2 code.

The Signed-off-by information below is collected from the individual
patches submitted to wireless-2.6 before merging this driver upstream.

This turns out to be true only for rtl8180. On rtl8187, power levels are
indeed stored in nibbles, so this patch is wrong. Please revert this patch.

I failed to notice that a u16 was being passed to the hardware.
This fixes it.
