f083d45820 Link state change notification of ethernet media to the routing socket.
o The ieee80211_media_status() function updates the ifi_link_state field
  and calls rt_ifmsg() to notify listeners on the routing socket.

0a58f658fe Change handling of probe response frames. Previously we always dropped the
refcnt on the node but left it in the node table.  This allows the node table
to hold the results of scanned ap's but for ibss scans left nodes w/o any
driver-private state setup and/or a bad refcnt (when the nodes were timed
out they were prematurely discarded).  Now we treat nodes identified for ap
scanning as before but force nodes discovered when scanning for ibss neighbors
to have complete/proper state and hold the refcnt on the node.  Any other
nodes created because of these frames are discarded directly (need to optimize
this case to eliminate various work that's immediately discarded).

b024266b89 fix adhoc/ibss operation for drivers that require host support (e.g. ath):
o remove IEEE80211_C_RCVMGT capability
o on transmit craft new nodes as needed using new ieee80211_find_txnode routine
o add ieee80211_find_txnode routine to lookup a node by mac address and
  if not present create one when operating in ibss/ahdemo mode; new nodes
  are dup'd from bss and the driver is told to treat the node as if a new
  association has been created so driver-private state (e.g. rate control
  handling) is setup

04780f09b9 Try yet again to deal with timing out nodes. We cannot hold the
node lock while sending a management frame as this will potentially
result in a LOR with a driver lock.  This doesn't happen for the
Atheros driver but does for the wi driver.  Use a generation number
to help process each node once when scanning the node table and
drop the node lock if we need to timeout a node and send a frame.

c9c933e78b 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.

1c1194250d MFp4 changes to fix locking issues and correct reference
count handling of station entries in hostap mode:

Input path:

o driver is now expected to find the node associated with the
  sender of a received frame; use ic_bss if none is located
o driver passes the (referenced) node into ieee80211_input for
  use within the wlan module and is responsible for cleaning up
  on return
o the antenna state is no longer passed up with each frame; this
  is now considered driver-private state and drivers are responsible
  for keeping it in the driver-private part of a node

Output path:

Revamp output path for management frames to eliminate redundant
locking that causes problems and to correct reference counting
bogosity that occurs when stations are timed out due to inactivity
(in AP mode).  On output the refcnt'd node is stashed in the pkthdr's
recvif field (yech) and retrieved by the driver.  This eliminates
an unref/ref scenario and related node table unlock/lock due to the
driver looking up the node.  This is particularly important when
stations are timed out as this causes a lock order reversal that
can result in a deadlock.  As a byproduct we also reduce the overhead
for sending management frames (minimal).  Additional fallout from
this is a change to ieee80211_encap to return a refcn't node for
tieing to the outbound frame.  Node refcnts are not reclaimed until
after a frame is completely processed (e.g. in the tx interrupt
handler).  This is especially important for timed out stations as
this deref will be the final one causing the node entry to be
reclaimed.

Additional semi-related changes:
o replace m_copym use with m_copypacket (optimization)
o add assert to verify ic_bss is never free'd during normal operation
o add comments explaining calling conventions by drivers for frames
  going in each direction
o remove extraneous code that "cannot be executed" (e.g. because
  pointers may never be null)
