2e79ca9762 o add support for controlling the power of transmitted frames
o add support for controlling the 11g protection mechanism used
  to protect OFDM frames in a mixed 11b/g network

b2e9569143 Only call if_init when doing SIOCSIFADDR if the interface is not marked
up (IFF_UP).  This eliminates extraneous AP scanning.

e249fdbedb Change WI_RID_SCAN_RES compatibility interface to return the result after
active scan is completed just as WI_RID_READ_APS.
This fixes wicontrol -L for ath(4) and awi(4) to have results even if
the driver cannot associate any APs.

6f161f0342 Handle SIOCSIFMTU ioctl directly so we can apply 802.11-specific bounds.
Note that the min is actually constrained to IF_MINMTU by the if layer.

93685685f4 o insure the current channel is in a good state before starting an AP scan
o reject scan requests for a device that isn't marked up

This fixes a problem where requesting a scan before marking the device
up would cause a panic because the current channel was set to "any" (0xffff).

5c8bb90bf7 Fix a reversed suser(9) in SIOCG80211:IEEE80211_IOC_WEPKEY which prevents
root from reading the wireless card's WEP keys, but allows non-root.

1be50176db add statistics for all failures and/or abnormal events; still need
to add per-node statistics

d1e61976a0 Generalize the per-node RSSI data so drivers can do more interesting
things than record a single value.

o add a per-node method for returning the "current RSSI" for a node
o create a default method that returns ni_rssi which is the rssi for
  the last received frame
o use the per-node "get rssi" method to return data for the RID's
  submitted by wicontrol, et. al.

Loosely based on work by Tom Marshall <tommy@home.tig-grr.com> for MADWIFI.

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...
