68f7a1034a Overhaul monitor mode handling:
o replace DLT_IEEE802_11 support in net80211 with DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO
  and remove explicit bpf support from wireless drivers; drivers now
  use ieee80211_radiotap_attach to setup shared data structures that
  hold the radiotap header for each packet tx/rx
o remove rx timestamp from the rx path; it was used only by the tdma support
  for debugging and was mostly useless due to it being 32-bits and mostly
  unavailable
o track DLT_IEEE80211_RADIO bpf attachments and maintain per-vap and
  per-com state when there are active taps
o track the number of monitor mode vaps
o use bpf tap and monitor mode vap state to decide when to collect radiotap
  state and dispatch frames; drivers no longer explicitly directly check
  bpf state or use bpf calls to tap frames
o handle radiotap state updates on channel change in net80211; drivers
  should not do this (unless they bypass net80211 which is almost always
  a mistake)
o update various drivers to be more consistent/correct in handling radiotap
o update ral to include TSF in radiotap'd frames
o add promisc mode callback to wi

37e13d2174 o move tdma+superg protocol defs out of public view
o add #ifdef _KERNEL to superg+tdma include files so they can be used
  by user code to get the protocol defs

da77f06ea9 add linker sets for get/set ioctl handlers so optional net80211
code is isolated

2235508d5e rate limit printfs for invalid tdma ie contents; probably want this to
be less than 1/sec

8bfd160665 Minor cleanups of tdma protocol handling:
o break out version-related code to simplify rev'ing the protocol
o add parameter validation macros so checks that appear multiple places
  are consistent (and easy to change)
o add protocol version check when looking for a scan candidate
o improve scan debug output format
o rewrite beacon update handling to calculate a bitmask of changed values
  and pass that down through the driver callback so drivers can optimize work
o do slot bounds check before use when parsing received beacons

98ad45c3d3 TDMA support for long distance point-to-point links using ath devices:
o add net80211 support for a tdma vap that is built on top of the
  existing adhoc-demo support
o add tdma scheduling of frame transmission to the ath driver; it's
  conceivable other devices might be capable of this too in which case
  they can make use of the 802.11 protocol additions etc.
o add minor bits to user tools that need to know: ifconfig to setup and
  configure, new statistics in athstats, and new debug mask bits

While the architecture can support >2 slots in a TDMA BSS the current
design is intended (and tested) for only 2 slots.
