Changes in 1.1.5

* Lindent and trailing whitespace script executed ieee80211 subsystem
* When an assoc_resp is received the network structure is not completely
  initialized which can cause problems for drivers that expect the 
  network structure to be completely filled in (thanks to Ivo van Doorn)
* Currently the info_element is parsed by 2 seperate functions, this
  results in a lot of duplicate code. (thanks to Ivo van Doorn)
* Fix implicit nocast warnings in ieee80211 code:
  net/ieee80211/ieee80211_tx.c:215:9: warning: implicit cast to nocast 
  type (thanks to Randy Dunlap)
* Move the ieee80211_is_ofdm_rate function to the ieee80211.h
  header, and I also added the ieee80211_is_cck_rate counterpart (thanks

  (thanks to Michael Wu)
* Changed crypto method from requiring a struct ieee80211_device reference
  to the init handler.  Instead we now have a get/set flags method for

  hw/sw offload.

  change

* Additional fixes for endian-aware types (based in part on Michael Wu's 
  changes)
* Added ieee80211_radiotap.h to enhance statistic reporting to user space
  from wireless drivers (thanks to Mike Kershaw)
* Added ieee80211_geo to provide helper functions to drivers for
  implementing supported channel maps.
* Add QoS (WME) support to the ieee80211 subsystem.
* Per the conversations with folks at OLS, the QoS layer in 802.11
  drivers can now result in NETDEV_TX_BUSY being returned when the queue
  a packet is targetted for is full.
* Fixed TKIP encryption issues msdu + mpdu encryption on every
  fragment. Change the behavior to msdu encryption on the whole
  packet, then mpdu encryption on every fragment.
* Modified to avoid repeated fragmentation when !host_encrypt.
* Added ieee80211_tx_frame to convert generic 802.11 data frames into
  txbs for transmission.
* Added several purpose specific callbacks (handle_assoc, handle_auth,
  etc.) which the driver can register with for being notified on
  reception of variouf frame elements.
* Added support for the creation of RTS packets when the
  config flag CFG_IEEE80211_RTS has been set (thanks to Ivo van Doorn)

  ipw2100 1.1.1, and ipw2200 1.0.5)

  an 802.11h mapping problem.
