mac80211: make station management completely depend on vif
The station management currently uses the virtual interface, but you cannot add the same station to multiple virtual interfaces if you're communicating with it in multiple ways. This restriction should be lifted so that in the future we can, for instance, support bluetooth 3 with an access point that mac80211 is already associated to. We can do that by requiring all sta_info_get users to provide the virtual interface and making the RX code aware that an address may match more than one station struct. Thanks to the previous patches this one isn't all that large and except for the RX and TX status paths changes has low complexity.
