As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the
only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel
with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it.
This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations
right now.
Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or
not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code
by removing the ability to use different channel types.
Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if
we extend it again later (with the needed capability
flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.

to add back the "wireless" sysfs directory for Fedora's startup scripts."
Regarding the iwlwifi tree, Johannes says:
"Please also pull my iwlwifi.git tree, I have two fixes: one to remove a
spurious warning that can actually trigger in legitimate situations, and
the other to fix a regression from when monitor mode was changed to use

"We mostly have pn533 fixes here, 2 memory leaks and an early unlocking fix.
Moreover, we also have an LLCP adapter linked list insertion fix."
On top of that, a few more bits... Albert Pool adds a USB ID

nextrxd() is calling txd(), which means that the tx descriptor count is
used to determine when to wrap for determining the next ring buffer
entry. This has worked so far since the driver has been using the same
number of rx and tx descriptors, but it's obviously going to be a
problem if different numbers of descriptors are used.

The brcmsmac internal tx buffering is problematic. The amount of
buffering is excessive (228 packets in addition to the 256 slots in each
DMA ring), and frames may be dropped due to a lack of flow control.
This patch reworks the transmit code path to remove the internal
buffering. Frames are immediately handed off to the DMA support rather
than passing through an intermediate queue. Non-aggregate frames are
queued immediately into the tx rings, and aggregate frames are queued
temporarily in an AMPDU session until ready for transmit.
Transmit flow control is also added to avoid dropping packets when the
tx rings are full. Conceptually this is a separate change, but it's
included in this commit because removing the tx queue without adding
flow control could cause significant problems.

The mac80211 tx queues and brcmsmac DMA fifos both map directly to AC
levels. Therefore it's much more straightforward to queue tx frames and
choose the tx fifo based on the mac80211 queue instead of mapping 802.1D
priority tags to precedence levels then back to AC levels. mac80211
already maps the 802.1D levels to the appropriate AC levels and queues
management frames at the maximum priority, so the results should be
identical.
One functional change resulting from this patch is that AMPDU retries no
longer get a priority boost to queue them ahead of packets with the same
priority already in the tx queue. This behavior will be restored (in
effect at least) in a later patch when the tx queue is removed.

AMPDU session allows MPDUs to be temporarily queued until either a full
AMPDU has been collected or circumstances dictate that transmission
should start with a partial AMPDU. Packets are added to the session by
calling brcms_c_ampdu_add_frame(). brcms_c_ampdu_finalize() should be
called to fix up the tx headers in the first and last packet before
adding the packets to the DMA ring. brmcs_c_sendampdu() is converted to
