Jouni Malinen ed9d01026f cfg80211: Use consistent BSS matching between scan and sme
cfg80211 scan code adds separate BSS entries if the same BSS shows up
on multiple channels. However, sme implementation does not use the
frequency when fetching the BSS entry. Fix this by adding channel
information to cfg80211_roamed() and include it in cfg80211_get_bss()
calls.

Please note that drivers using cfg80211_roamed() need to be modified to
fully implement this fix. This commit includes only minimal changes to
avoid compilation issues; it maintains the old (broken) behavior for
most drivers. ath6kl was the only one that I could test, so I updated
it to provide the operating frequency in the roamed event.

Karl Relton aff3ea4e5d Staging: wlan-ng: Explicitly set some fields in cfg80211 interface
The cfg80211 api has introduced a few new fields. Rather than assume
what cfg80211 api does by default, set these explicitly.

Christoph Fritz 9015e49962 Staging: wlan-ng: Update prism2_set_tx_power() to use mBm
Commit fa61cf70a6 updates nl80211's function
.set_tx_power to use mBm units instead of dBm for greater accuracy and
smaller power levels.

This patchs updates prism2_set_tx_power() accordingly.

Karl Relton cb3126e60f Staging: wlan-ng: Switch from wext to cfg80211
Switch driver over from wext to cfg80211 interface.

Some Notes:

- This patch moves the driver wholesale from wext to cfg80211. Wext
support is still provided through the cfg80211 provided wext
compatability layer.

- Currently only infrastructure mode is implemented. Ad hoc mode is not
yet implemented, but can be added.

- It does not support connecting to a specified bssid, instead roaming
is handled by the card itself. This matches the behaviour of the
existing driver.

- It has been tested using NetworkManager (via wpa_supplicant)
configured to use the wext compatability layer, and then again with the
native nl80211 layer.
