[PATCH,RFC] set_security implementation inside softmac

[PATCH,RFC] set_security implementation inside softmac

Hi,

This patch moves the boring set_security logic (which is currently 
duplicated line-for-line in zd1211 and bcm43xx) into softmac, and adds a 
hook so that drivers can still be notified about sec changes (so that 
they can upload keys to the device, etc).

I also attached a patch for bcm43xx to illustrate this.

However, the set_security stuff in ieee80211 feels kind of sub-standard 
(or have I just misunderstood it?), how each driver is expected to 
populate ieee->sec from that callback, and how the driver doesn't get an 
opportunity to say "actually, I can't work with that configuration".

Is it worth fixing the whole thing, or is this kind of patch acceptable?

Thanks,
Daniel
