PATCH 1/1 Frame injection

This patch is a combination of Matteo's patch and another submitted several months ago on the list. It is tested for what concerns 11g rates. However I did not manage to inject frames at 11n rates (tested only with an atheros sr71a card)

I ignored it because it was just a lot of things thrown into one and then with a useless changelog tacked on ....
