It's better to keep initialization in one place to simplify conversion
to the new style netdev ops.
Declare ieee80211_ioctl() in ieee80211_linux.h next to other
ieee80211_ioctl* functions defined in ieee80211_wireless.c.

Use netdev_priv() for Linux 2.4.27 and newer. Provide compatibility
wrapper for older kernels.
Imply CONFIG_KMOD for Linux 2.6.27 and newer.

The need to use software instead of hardware for beacon timers in AP+STA mode (aka nosbeacon) is now just determined in software, as we always knew whether or not to enable this.
The confusing bssid and -bssid parameters are now deprecated.
The "uniquebssid" flag is equivalent to "bssid" and can be used to force IEEE80211_CLONE_BSSID flag. If this is not specified, then the BSSID used will be the next unused BSSID in the sequence, which could very well be the parent device's MAC address.
"uniquebssid" equates directly to IEEE80211_CLONE_BSSID" flag therefore.

time in ms, or the number of beacons for the
beacon miss alarm. If we haven't had a beacon
in this period, the alarm is sounded and
action (i.e. roaming) is taken.
This patch changes the storage of the beacon
miss threshold to integral beacon count but
corrects the previous intent.
The default beacon miss alarm is going to be
850ms which is half way between the two hard
coded limits that were there before.
The old hard coded limits assumed that the
beacon interval was 100ms and set the limit to
10 (1000ms) for software beacon miss timer
and 7 for hardware beacon miss timer.
The new default is 850ms (the midpoint between
the two previous defaults). This value is rounded
up to the next nearest beacon interval.
There is no upper bound on the beacon miss
threshold specified, since it may need to be
wildly inflated with 25ms beacon interval, or
wildly reduced with 1000ms beacon interval.
The minimum is still 2 beacons, regardless of
the beacon interval.

This changes some iwpriv names, because I believe they will be more readily usable and understandable

ARRAY_SIZE is present in all kernel versions we support. Use it instead
of other definitions. Define ARRAY_SIZE in the userspace tools as well.
