This patchset cleans channel handling in the driver which became a bit
messy recently. We get rid of too many variables in PHY struct switching
to a simple struct cfg80211_chan_def (unsigned int channel is still
there because a lot of code depends on it).

This also slightly changes PHY ops to make PHY re-init possible with
the current channel (this will be needed for band switching).

This has been basically tested for regressions on the following cards:
14e4:4312 BCM4311 G-PHY rev 8
14e4:4315 BCM4312 LP-PHY rev 1
14e4:4328 BCM4321 N-PHY rev 2
14e4:432b BCM4322 N-PHY rev 4
14e4:4353 BCM43224 N-PHY rev 6
(note 14e4:4312 was never working correctly for me).

John: it's the last "big thing" I wanted for 3.16. It's a bit late, so
to minimalize a risk I gave it some testing on many devices. If you
manage to get it for 3.16, that will be cool for me. Still, it's up to
you, not a big pressure.

Rafa? Mi?ecki (9):
  b43: drop B43_DEFAULT_CHANNEL
  b43: b43_op_config: drop check for core change
  b43: b43_op_config: use IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_CHANNEL
  b43: PHY: don't force default channel during init
  b43: b43_op_config: set channel info before switching band
  b43: store current channel using struct cfg80211_chan_def
  b43: PHY: drop own channel_freq (get it from chandef when needed)
  b43: PHY: drop is_40mhz (get width info from chandef)
  b43: PHY: drop channel_type (we can get this info from chandef)
