Driver support for the monitor mode support that will be available in the next
OLPC 'bleeding edge' Marvell firmware release (most likely, 5.110.16.p2).
To activate monitor mode,
echo mode > /sys/class/net/{ethX,mshX}/device/libertas_rtap
where mode is the hex mask that specifies which frames to sniff (in short, 0x1
for data, 0x2 for all management but beacons, 0x4 for beacons). Any non zero
mode will activate the monitor mode, inhibiting transmission in ethX and mshX
interfaces and routing all the incoming traffic to a new rtapX interface that
will output the packets in 802.11+radiotap headers format.

The variable was initialized to 0 and nowhere else changed, so basically
the per-packet TX control wasn't used.

Currently, when you define LBS_DEB_HEX, you get every hex dump in the
whole driver, e.g. for LBS_DEB_CMD, LBS_DEB_RX, LBS_DEB_TX etc. This
patch makes sure that you only get the hexdump that you're interested in.
Renamed lbs_dbg_hex() into lbs_deb_hex(), like the other lbs_deb_XXX()
macros.
Made lbs_deb_hex() issue a line feed (and a new prompt) after 16 bytes.
As lbs_deb_hex() now prints the ":" after the prompt by itself, removed
the misc colons in the various *.c files.
lbs_deb_XXX() now print the debug category as well.
As lbs_deb_XXX() --- and especially lbs_deb_11d() --- now print the
category, I removed various "11D:" prefixes in 11d.c as well.

The CF/SDIO firmware doesn't support Mesh, so priv->mesh_dev is
NULL there. Protect all accesses.

Actually, this patch removev wlan_dev_t totally and puts the used variables
of it directly into wlan_private. That reduces one level of indirection and
looks a little bit simpler. It's now "priv->card" and not
"priv->wlan_dev.card" and "priv->dev" instead of "priv->wlan_dev.netdev"
Changed two occurences of "((wlan_private *) dev->priv)->wlan_dev.netdev"
into "dev", because I didn't see the point in doing pointer-ping-pong.
The variables "ioport", "upld_rcv" and "upld_type" where unused. They have
been removed.

* add CONFIG_LIBERTAS to Kconfig
* remove global variable libertas_fw_name, the USB module might want to
use a different default FW name than the CF module, so libertas_fw_name
is now local to if_usb.c
* exported some symbols as GPL

This functions makes all libertas_sbi_XXX functions static to the
if_usb.c file and renames them to if_usb_XXXX(). The get called from
other places of the source code via priv->hw_XXXX().

The debug output of libertas was either not present or it was overwhelming.
This patch adds the possibility to specify a bitmask for the area of
interest. One should then only get the desired output.
