The iBFT is Ethernet-centric in providing only six bytes for a MAC
address.  This is most probably an indirect consequence of a similar
design flaw in the Windows NDIS stack.  (The WinOF IPoIB stack
performs all sorts of contortions in order to pretend to the NDIS
layer that it is dealing with six-byte MAC addresses.)

There is no sensible way in which to extend the iBFT without breaking
compatibility with programs that expect to parse it.  Add the notion
of an "Ethernet-compatible" MAC address to our link layer abstraction,
so that link layers can provide their own workarounds for this
limitation.

802.11 multicast hashing is the same as standard Ethernet hashing, so
just expose and use eth_mc_hash().

The recent change to process_add() to detect duplicate process
additions relies on the fact that all processes will be initialized
using process_init_stopped() before being passed to that function.
The autoassociation process was not initialized in this fashion, so
process_add() erroneously detected it as a duplicate.

Fix by using process_init_stopped() to initialize the autoassociation
process instead of setting the step member directly.

IPoIB has a 20-byte link-layer address, of which only eight bytes
represent anything relating to a "hardware address".

The PXE and EFI SNP APIs expect the permanent address to be the same
size as the link-layer address, so fill in the "permanent address"
field with the initial link layer address (as generated by
register_netdev() based upon the real hardware address).

The hardware address is an intrinsic property of the hardware, while
the link-layer address can be changed at runtime.  This separation is
exposed via APIs such as PXE and EFI, but is currently elided by gPXE.

Expose the hardware and link-layer addresses as separate properties
within a net device.  Drivers should now fill in hw_addr, which will
be used to initialise ll_addr at the time of calling
register_netdev().

When a probe found no results, the list head of beacons would not be
freed, leaking 16 bytes of memory per probe.

Some cards (such as ath5k) always need to tune to a particular channel
when they are reset; the reset may happen upon open(), which is before
the channels array would be set up (in prepare_probe()). Avoid tuning
the card to an inconsistent state by copying the hardware
supported-channels array to the 802.11 device's allowable-channels
array even before channels are "properly" set up.

The prior net80211 model of physical-layer behavior for drivers was
overly simplistic and limited the drivers that could be written.  To
be more flexible, split the driver-provided list of supported rates by
band, and add a means for specifying a list of supported channels.
Allow drivers to specify a hardware channel value that will be tied to
uses of the channel.

Expose net80211_duration() to drivers, and make the rate it uses in
its computations configurable, so that it can be used in calculating
durations that must be set in hardware for ACK and CTS packets. Add
net80211_cts_duration() for the common case of calculating the
duration for a CTS packet.

This is required for all modern 802.11 devices, and allows drivers
to be written for them with minimally more effort than is required
for a wired NIC.
