Cover letter [PATCH 0/4] add mac80211 wireless infrastructure

This series adds the mac80211 component. This is the new wireless infrastructure for "softmac"-style wireless hardware. It originated as code contributed by Devicescape, and has been under development by the community for well over a year. Thanks are due especially to Jiri Benc and Michael Wu as well as Johannes Berg and a number of other contributors who have worked to hammer this into its current form.

This component was in -mm for most of the 2.6.21 cycle, with few reported bugs. The code is also currently available in Fedora rawhide where it has performed well.

The wireless developers would like this to be considered for merge in time for 2.6.22. Patches for at least one mac80211-based driver will follow shortly.

Thanks,

John
