Which version was this based on? The end result did not built and this
type of changes would be nice to handle in two different patches (i.e.,
first change driver_devicescape.c and then rename in a separate change).

Is driver_nl80211.c correct name for this? I would assume this would be
quite specific to net/mac80211 at least for the time being or would you
expect this to work with non-mac80211 drivers?

I applied the change of moving definitions from heaser files into
driver_devicescape.c, but with quite a bit of additional definitions
included to allow this to be compiled. I did not apply parts that
removed 'const' from couple of function definitions since they looked
more like reverting something than desired changes. I did not rename the
file.
