bcm43xx master mode works for me

I just gave this another try, after porting the fix for the
beacon_control kfree bug which I'd found and debugged with Michael on
IRC earlier (changeset 8ce88367b520c0fb303832026d5604a414e1259c in his
tree) to the latest wireless-dev [1] and making hostapd compile, I have
master mode working with bcm43xx.

That means I can now start working on creating a driver_nl82011.c for
hostapd and killing off the prism2 ioctls one by one :) Help is always
welcome though.
