[WIRELESS] cfg80211: New wireless config infrastructure. This patch creates the core cfg80211 code along with some sysfs bits. This is a stripped down version to allow mac80211 to function, but doesn't include any configuration yet except for creating and removing virtual interfaces. This patch includes the nl80211 header file but it only contains the interface types which the cfg80211 interface for creating virtual interfaces relies on.

cfg80211: export multiple MAC addresses in sysfs If a device has multiple MAC addresses, userspace will need to know about that. Similarly, if it allows the MAC addresses to vary by a bitmask. If a driver exports multiple addresses, it is assumed that it will be able to deal with that many different addresses, which need not necessarily match the ones programmed into the device; if a mask is set then the device should deal addresses within that mask based on an arbitrary "base address". To test it all and show how it is used, add support to hwsim even though it can't actually deal with addresses different from the default.

Driver core: change add_uevent_var to use a struct This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations. Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the error handling.

cfg80211: age scan results on resume Scanned BSS entries are timestamped with jiffies, which doesn't increment across suspend and hibernate. On resume, every BSS in the scan list looks like it was scanned within the last 10 seconds, irregardless of how long the machine was actually asleep. Age scan results on resume with the time spent during sleep so userspace has a clue how old they really are. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
