Part of reorganising wireless drivers directory and Kconfig.

ssb bus can be found on various "host" devices like PCI/PCMCIA/SDIO.
Every ssb bus contains cores AKA devices.
The main idea is to have ssb driver scan/initialize bus and register
ready-to-use cores. This way ssb drivers can operate on a single core
mostly ignoring underlaying details.
For some reason PCMCIA support was split between ssb and b43. We got
PCMCIA host device probing in b43, then bus scanning in ssb and then
wireless core probing back in b43. The truth is it's very unlikely we
will ever see PCMCIA ssb device with no 802.11 core but I still don't
see any advantage of the current architecture.
With proposed change we get the same functionality with a simpler
architecture, less Kconfig symbols, one killed EXPORT and hopefully
cleaner b43. Since b43 supports both: ssb & bcma I prefer to keep ssb
specific code in ssb driver.
This mostly moves code from b43's pcmcia.c to bridge_pcmcia_80211.c. We
already use similar solution with b43_pci_bridge.c. I didn't use "b43"
in name of this new file as in theory any driver can operate on wireless
core.

OpenWrt user reported b43 doesn't probe wireless core on SoC BCM5356A1:
[ 0.000000] bcma: bus0: Found chip with id 0x5356, rev 0x01 and package 0x04
it is because this chip uses different 802.11 core revison than others:
[ 0.000000] bcma: bus0: Core 1 found: IEEE 802.11 (manuf 0x4BF, id 0x812, rev 0x15, class 0x0)

As we're running out of hardware capability flags pretty quickly,
convert them to use the regular test_bit() style unsigned long
bitmaps.
This introduces a number of helper functions/macros to set and to
test the bits, along with new debugfs code.
The occurrences of an explicit __clear_bit() are intentional, the
drivers were never supposed to change their supported bits on the
fly. We should investigate changing this to be a per-frame flag.

It seems Broadcom released two devices with conflicting device id. There
are for sure 14e4:4321 PCI devices with BCM4321 (N-PHY) chipset, they
can be found in routers, e.g. Netgear WNR834Bv2. However, according to
Broadcom public sources 0x4321 is also used for 5 GHz BCM4306 (G-PHY).
It's unsure if they meant PCI device id, or "virtual" id (from SPROM).
To distinguish these devices lets check PHY type (G vs. N).

This support is essentially useless as typically networks are encrypted,
frames will be filtered by hardware, and rate scaling will be done with
the intended recipient in mind. For real monitoring of the network, the
monitor mode support should be used instead.
Removing it removes a lot of corner cases.

Conflicts:
drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_main.c
net/core/sysctl_net_core.c
net/ipv4/inet_diag.c
The be_main.c conflict resolution was really tricky. The conflict
hunks generated by GIT were very unhelpful, to say the least. It
split functions in half and moved them around, when the real actual
conflict only existed solely inside of one function, that being
be_map_pci_bars().
So instead, to resolve this, I checked out be_main.c from the top
of net-next, then I applied the be_main.c changes from 'net' since
the last time I merged. And this worked beautifully.
The inet_diag.c and sysctl_net_core.c conflicts were simple
overlapping changes, and were easily to resolve.

b43 has a FIXME about locking in the mac80211 set-beacon-int callback for a long time.
As it turns out there actually is a tiny race window that could result in
a use-after-free bug of the 'current_beacon' memory.
Nobody ever reported this, so it probably never happened.
Fix this by adding a spin lock that protects the current_beacon access.
We must not be in atomic context while accessing hardware (due to SDIO),
so the beacon update bottom half has to clone the skb and release the lock
before writing it to hardware.
Let's all hope that this stops the troll who is trying to submit incorrect
fixes for this issue repeatedly.
And let's hope that I'm not a troll, too, who just hides even more evil code
in an even more complex attempt to fix the issue.

Access to PHY and radio registers is indirect on Broadcom hardware and
