[PATCH] cfg80211: clean up signal type

[PATCH] cfg80211: clean up signal type

[Johannes Berg]

It wasn't a good idea to make the signal type a per-BSS option,
although then it is closer to the actual value. Move it to be
a per-wiphy setting, update mac80211 to match.

Might require that other patch adding qual.qual to apply.
