Good patch; one thing we might want to do in the near future is cut the
whole RSSI/NF/SNR mess in half by killing all the TYPE_BEACON bits of
it.  The only places that TYPE_BEACON seem to be used are when getting
stats for 'iwconfig' and when returning scanned BSSs for the noise
value.  The noise value can certainly be cached _on its own_ in priv->
since it's useful, but I think the rest of it is pretty pointless and we
could just grab it locally in lbs_get_wireless_stats() which is the only
place it's really used.  That cleanup can come later of course.
