With this patch, scanning with mshX interface will only return mesh networks. To
differentiate them, a specific mesh IE in beacons/probe responses is used. This
IE has been introduced in firmware release 5.110.14. Note:
Even though there can be at most a single mesh per channel, this scan might
return several networks in the same channel.
If all nodes in a mesh network are associated to an AP, they won't produce
beacons/probe responses, thus the network will not be listed. This will be fixed
in future firmware releases.
Scan on ethX interface is not filtered, so it will list both mesh and non-mesh
networks.

Remove struct IE_WPA and just use direct checking of the IE
bytes like ipw. Remove WLAN_802_11_VARIABLE_IEs because
it's unused.
Kill ieeetypes_elementid enum and just use MFIE_* from
ieee80211.h. Also use struct ieee80211_info_element for
scan buffer processing to simplify pointer usage.

Previously if a fixed channel was specified along with an SSID,
the channel request would be ignored during the association
process. Instead, when searching for an adhoc or infrastructure
network to join, allow filtering results based on channel so
that the driver doesn't pick a BSS on a different channel than
requested.

Update signal quality before the locked scan result translation loop,
because calling libertas_prepare_and_send_command() with the

leading to the deadlock.

The BSS to associate with (in either Infrastructure or IBSS join
operations) is now stored in _one_ place in the association request (the
bss member), not two places as before (pattemptedbss and
curbssparams->bssdescriptor).
Association requests are passed to the necessary association functions
to (a) give them access to the bss member and (b) ensure that
association/join/start setup uses settings from the request, not the
current adapter settings (which may not be valid for the requested
settings).
Because the 'bss' member of the association request is used now, the
command return functions from associate and adhoc join/start need access
to the in-progress association request to update curbssparams when
everything is done. The association worker moves the request from
pending to in-progress for the duration of the association attempt.

Do not clear the scan list except under specific conditions, such as
when (a) user-requested, or (b) joining/starting an adhoc network.
Furthermore, only clear entries which match the SSID or BSSID of the
request, not the whole scan list.

Actually, this patch removev wlan_dev_t totally and puts the used variables
of it directly into wlan_private. That reduces one level of indirection and
looks a little bit simpler. It's now "priv->card" and not
"priv->wlan_dev.card" and "priv->dev" instead of "priv->wlan_dev.netdev"
Changed two occurences of "((wlan_private *) dev->priv)->wlan_dev.netdev"
into "dev", because I didn't see the point in doing pointer-ping-pong.
The variables "ioport", "upld_rcv" and "upld_type" where unused. They have
been removed.

Scan two channels per each command on set_scan(), then bail out and let
get_scan() continue the scanning work up to the last channel.
This gives time to the firmware so it can go back to the association
channel and keep the connection alive.
