[PATCH 2.6.18] WE-21 support (core API)

[Jean Tourrilhes <jt@hpl.hp.com>]

	Hi John,

	This is version 21 of the Wireless Extensions. Changelog :
		o finishes migrating the ESSID API (remove the +1)
		o netdev->get_wireless_stats is no more
		o modulation
		o long/short retry
		o relative power saving.
	Only the first item is controversial, but it was agreed on
this list a few months ago. Actually, those patches have been on my
web page for a few months, waiting for users-space chages to propagate
to the distros.

	I've rediffed and retested with 2.6.18-rc5, and also made the
patches for the latest wireless-2.6 git. Core API patch included here,
mandatory driver patches to follow (to reflect API changes), extra
driver patches to be sent to the respective maintainers later. Of
course, out-of-tree drivers need #ifdef not included here...
	Would you mind sending that into Linus's kernel at the next
opportunity, for example for 2.6.19-pre.
        Have fun...

        Jean
