cfg80211: validate channel settings across interfaces
Currently, there's a problem that affects regulatory
enforcement and connection stability, in that it is
possible to switch the channel while connected to a
network or joined to an IBSS.
The problem comes from the fact that we only validate
the channel against the current interface's type, not
against any other interface. Thus, you have any type
of interface up, additionally bring up a monitor mode
interface and switch the channel on the monitor. This
will obviously also switch the channel on the other
interface.
The problem now is that if you do that while sending
beacons for IBSS mode, you can switch to a disabled
channel or a channel that doesn't allow beaconing.
Combined with a managed mode interface connected to
an AP instead of an IBSS interface, you can easily
break the connection that way.
To fix this, this patch validates any channel change
with all available interfaces, and disallows such
changes on secondary interfaces if another interface
is connected to an AP or joined to an IBSS.

wl1251: hack to disable filters for fixing association
Commit 9cef8737 "mac80211: fix managed mode BSSID handling" broke
association in wl1251, most probably because the driver configured
the bssid filter incorrectly. Workaround this by disabling filter
altogether. This needs to be fixed properly soon.

bnx2x: Adding XAUI CL73 autoneg support
Adding CL73 support to the built in PHY in the 5771x device. Also supporting
fallbacks to CL73 if the link partner does not respond.

The BCM8727 is a dual port PHY. The FW must be loaded in a given order on all

second port)

To avoid confusion, if the PHY does not have a FW (and so, no FW version) make
sure that the string is NULL.

bnx2x: BCM8481 LED4 instead of LASI
The BCM8481 does not generate LASI interrupt for 10M, 100M and 1G link, so we
are using LED4 output as the interrupt input to the 57711. This requires some
adaptation in the link interrupt routines

bnx2x: Using the new FW
The new FW improves the packets per second rate. It required a lot of change in
the FW which implies many changes in the driver to support it. It is now also
possible for the driver to use a separate MSI-X vector for Rx and Tx - this also
add some to the complicity of this change.
All things said - after this patch, practically all performance matrixes show
improvement.
Though Vladislav Zolotarov is not signed on this patch, he did most of the job
and deserves credit for that.
