Nothing actually uses the return value yet, but we might as well
make it correct, like process_rxed_802_11_packet() does for the
same case. Also ensure that if monitor mode is enabled (and
thus process_rxed_802_11_packet() is called) that the debugging
enter/leave functions are balanced.

This also propagates through the drivers.
The orinoco driver uses the cfg80211 API structs for internal
bookkeeping, and so needs a (void *) cast that removes the
const - but that's OK because it allocates those pointers.

Scan results from Marvell 8388 and 8686 have probe responses from
hidden APs and OLPC XO-1 mesh with a zero length SSID IE.
Bug in lbs_ret_scan discarded any remaining BSS in scan response,
leading to user not seeing APs in dense environments.
With LBS_DEB_SCAN, dmesg shows
libertas scan: scan response: 5 BSSs (419 bytes); resp size 474 bytes
libertas scan: scan: 00:1a:2b:84:de:e8, capa 0401, chan 1, qz, -51 dBm
libertas scan: scan: 5c:63:bf:d8:eb:0c, capa 0411, chan 1, qw129, -23 dBm
libertas scan: scan response: invalid IE fmt
With LBS_DEB_HEX, dmesg shows valid BSS in scan response were not
processed.
Change is to ignore zero length IE and continue processing.

When receiving an IBSS_JOINED event select the BSS object
based on the {bssid, channel} couple rather than the bssid
only.
With the current approach if another cell having the same
BSSID (but using a different channel) exists then cfg80211
picks up the wrong BSS object.
The result is a mismatching channel configuration between
cfg80211 and the driver, that can lead to any sort of
problem.
The issue can be triggered by having an IBSS sitting on
given channel and then asking the driver to create a new
cell using the same BSSID but with a different frequency.
By passing the channel to cfg80211_get_bss() we can solve
this ambiguity and retrieve/create the correct BSS object.
All the users of cfg80211_ibss_joined() have been changed
accordingly.
Moreover WARN when cfg80211_ibss_joined() gets a NULL
channel as argument and remove a bogus call of the same
function in ath6kl (it does not make sense to call
cfg80211_ibss_joined() with a zero BSSID on ibss-leave).

CMD_MAC_CONTROL is currently sent async to the firmware, and is sent
from the lbs_setup_firmware() path during device init.
This means that device init can complete with commands pending, and
the if_sdio driver will sometimes power down the device (after init)
with this command still pending.
This was causing an occasional spurious command timeout after init,
leading to a device reset.
Fix this by making CMD_MAC_CONTROL synchronous when called from the
lbs_setup_firmware() path.

On an OLPC XO-1.5 we have seen the following situation:
- the system starts going into suspend
- no wake params are set, so the mmc layer removes the card
- during remove, we send a command to the card
- that command fails, causing if_sdio's reset method to try and remove
the mmc card in attempt to reset it
- the mmc layer is not happy about being asked to remove a card that
it is already removing, and the kernel crashes
While the MMC layer could possibly be taught to behave better here,
it also seems sensible for libertas not to try and reset a card if
we're in the process of removing it anyway.

We found a deadlock in the handling of command failures/reset conditions.
For example:
1. Two commands are in the queue.
2. The first command is sent, but causes a timeout, which kicks off an
asynchronous device reset
3. The second command is queued (but not yet sent to the hardware)
4. The device reset kicks in, causing the if_usb disconnect handler to
set the "surprise removed" flag to be set as the device disappears
from the bus. This causes lbs_thread to stop processing things
("adapter removed; waiting to die"), not processing any further
commands, leaving the second queued command "in the air", causing a
deadlock.
Fix this by removing the surpriseremoved flag setting in if_usb. I can't
see any reason why this needs to be done so early. lbs_remove_card will set
this flag at an appropriate time - i.e. after all pending commands have
been completed or cancelled, avoiding this deadlock.

Fail commands immediately when the request cannot be sent to the hardware.
This solves the following deadlock:
1. Two commands are in the queue.
2. The first command is sent, but causes a timeout, which kicks off an
asynchronous device reset
3. The second command is submitted to the device, and fails. The failure
is noted but the existing code waits for the timeout handler to take
care of the failure.
4. The device reset kicks in, causing the device "surprise removed" flag
to be set as the device disappears from the bus.
5. lbs_thread notes this and enters "adapter removed; waiting to die"
mode, without processing any further command timeouts.
While adjusting lbs thread logic to handle this situation may be one way
to fix this, it seems more practical to simplify handling of host_to_card
failure so that the commands are failed immediately without waiting for
more compliated timeout logic to kick in.

reg_notifier can be called before the interface is up.
Handle this correctly by storing the requested country code, then
apply the relevant configuration when the interface is brought up.

The new P2P Device will have to be able to scan for
P2P search, so move scanning to use struct wireless_dev
instead of struct net_device.

In the list of commands CMD_802_11_EEPROM_ACCESS had been
defined twice, unnecessarily, luckily with same value.
Remove one occurence.
