  To: linux-wireless; +Cc: orinoco-devel, David Kilroy

I've completely refactorred since the last RFC, and switched to the
cfg80211 handlers for scanning, mode changing and giwrange.

Patches 1-5 modify cfg80211, mostly so it can advertise (the more
restrictive) orinoco capabilities correctly.

Patches 6-13 refactor the orinoco internal interfaces and initialisation
to make the switch to cfg80211 easier. The main thrust is to avoid using
net_device in the device drivers allowing us to register the net_device
later.

Patch 14 starts the cfg80211 conversion, before patches 15-19 cleanup
the fallout from the conversion.

Patches 20 though 23 convert a few of the WE handler to cfg80211
handlers.

The refactorring affects all the card and firmware types, but I'm only
able to test orinoco_cs with Agere firmware.
