fba3db9f57 short preamble capability is not just for 11g; mark IEEE80211_F_SHPREAMBLE
regardless of the operating mode

2692bb26d4 Delay creating ic_bss until after the super-class has a chance
to override the method pointers for manipulating nodes; this fixes
a problem where the ic_bss node was not being created properly
for the ath driver causing the driver to scribble on random memory.

a11c9a5cc2 o change ieee80211_new_state handling to use a proper method that drivers
override in their sub-class; this eliminates the hack of interpreting the
  EINPROGRESS return value to mean "don't do any of the normal work"
o correct active scanning so the first channel is only scanned once and so
  per-channel passive mode is properly honored
o expose 802.11 FSM state names so every driver doesn't keep a private copy
o eliminate node parameter to ieee80211_begin_scan; it was not being used

1a1e1d2157 new 802.11 layer:
o code reorg (relative to old netbsd-derived code) for future growth
o drivers now specify available channels and rates and 802.11 layer handles
  almost all ifmedia actions
o multi-mode support for 11a/b/g devices
o 11g protocol additions (incomplete)
o new element id additions (for other than 11g)
o node/station table redone for proper locking and to eliminate driver
  incestuousness
o split device flags and capabilities to reduce confusion and provide room
  for expansion
o incomplete power management infrastructure (need to revisit)
o incomplete hooks for software retry
o more...
