[RFC] libertas: first stab at cfg80211 support

[Holger Schurig]

Hmm, I see two problems with my code:

> +struct wireless_dev *lbs_wdev_alloc(int sizeof_priv, struct 
device *dev)
> +{
...
> +	wdev->wiphy = wiphy_new(&lbs_cfg80211_ops,
> +		sizeof(struct lbs_private) + sizeof_priv);
...

and later:

> +	wdev = lbs_wdev_alloc(sizeof(struct lbs_private), dmdev);

That's rubbish, I now allocate "sizeof(lbs_private)" bytes twice.



Another thing is that it might be necessary to unbundle the
call of "wiphy_new()" and wiphy_register().

I need lbs_private allocated and usable, e.g. in 
lbs_start_card().

Later, in lbs_start_card(), when I query the firmware about it's 
capabilites I know enought to populate wiphy->bands. Only then 
should I call wiphy_register().
