The channel values used by firmware is handled using conversion functions
depending on the type of chip. These functions were already in place but
lacked proper support for 80MHz channel definitions. This patch adds the
support for that.

The struct cfg80211_connect_params indicate whether the connection
should use management frame protection (mfp). If required set the
MFP_CAPABLE flag in the firmware command. This is supported from
user-space by wpa_supplicant since v2.1.

Just some minor conflicts between the wireless-next changes
and Joe Perches's "extern" removal from function prototypes
in header files.
John W. Linville says:
====================
Regarding the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
"The big work here is from Marcel and Johan. They did a lot of work
in the L2CAP, HCI and MGMT layers. The most important ones are the
addition of a new MGMT command to enable/disable LE advertisement
and the introduction of the HCI user channel to allow applications
to get directly and exclusive access to Bluetooth devices."
As to the ath10k bits, Kalle says:
"Bartosz dropped support for qca98xx hw1.0 hardware from ath10k, it's
just too much to support it. Michal added support for the new firmware
interface. Marek fixed WEP in AP and IBSS mode. Rest of the changes are
minor fixes or cleanups."
And also:
"Major changes are:
* throughput improvements including aligning the RX frames correctly and
optimising HTT layer (Michal)
* remove qca98xx hw1.0 support (Bartosz)
* add support for firmware version 999.999.0.636 (Michal)
* firmware htt statistics support (Kalle)
* fix WEP in AP and IBSS mode (Marek)
* fix a mutex unlock balance in debugfs file (Shafi)
And of course there's a lot of smaller fixes and cleanup."
For the wl12xx bits, Luca says:
"Here are some patches intended for 3.13. Eliad is upstreaming a bunch
of patches that have been pending in the internal tree. Mostly bugfixes
and other small improvements."
Along with that...
Arend and friends bring us a batch of brcmfmac updates, Larry Finger
offers some rtlwifi refactoring, and Sujith sends the usual batch of
ath9k updates. As usual, there are a number of other small updates
from a variety of players as well.

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.
Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

Save & restore is an advanced power saving feature,
supported only on selected devices.
SR operation is almost completely transparent to the driver.
Support for it is hardware and firmware dependent.

Softmac would bring its interface down on a certain Minimum Power Save
related condition, without Mac80211 intervention. Because Mac80211 should
be the only party initiating interfaces going up and down, this functionality
has been removed. All notions of 'MPC' have been removed in the code as
well.
