a3d1fd23e1 drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00: fix sparse warnings: make symbols static
Fix this sparse warnings:

  drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00/ipw2100.c:5271:6: warning: symbol 'ipw2100_queues_initialize' was not declared. Should it be static?
  drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00/ipw2100.c:5278:6: warning: symbol 'ipw2100_queues_free' was not declared. Should it be static?
  drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00/ipw2100.c:5285:5: warning: symbol 'ipw2100_queues_allocate' was not declared. Should it be static?

14a4dfe2ff ipw2200: fix scanning while associated
This patch fixes sporadic firmware restarts when scanning while associated.

The firmware will quietly cancel a scan (while associated) if the dwell time
for a channel to be scanned is larger than the time it may stay away from the
operating channel (because of DTIM catching). Unfortunately the driver is not
notified about the canceled scan and therefore the scan watchdog timeout will
be hit and the driver causes a firmware restart which results in
disassociation. This mainly happens on passive channels which use a dwell time
of 120 whereas a typical beacon interval is around 100.

The patch changes the dwell time for passive channels to be slightly smaller
than the actual beacon interval to work around the firmware issue. Furthermore
the number of allowed beacon misses is increased from one to three as otherwise
most scans (while associated) won't complete successfully.

However scanning while associated will still fail in corner cases such as a
beacon intervals below 30.

007e5ddddf wireless: clean up radiotap a bit
No need to pad the header so no constant needed for that,
no need to carry any version number from netbsd nor CVS
IDs from them.

beb2a7f331 net/ieee80211 -> drivers/net/ipw2x00/libipw_* rename
The old ieee80211 code only remains as a support library for the ipw2100
and ipw2200 drivers.  So, move the code and rename it appropriately to
reflects it's true purpose and status.
