Expect fallout from these changes.  Known issues:

o kernel configs must be updated to remove wlan_scan_*
o ipw is broken
o wi works for Prism cards with newer firmware (1.7.x tested w/ wpa!) but
   older cards/firmware and Lucent cards are known broken
o adhoc mode is little tested and may be broken
o monitor mode radiotap support is available only on the "parent device"

I promise to look at ipw but it won't happen immediately so anyone 
that's affected should feel free to dig in.  I have no plans to touch 
wi; folks that persist in using these cards should fix issues now that 
I've rewritten the driver so that it is more properly integrated with 
net80211.  OTOH wi now does wpa and adding wds support should be 
straightforward.

    Sam
