This is the initial step in allowing ath9k to register multiple virtual radios (wiphys). The goal of virtual radios is to allow the same radio to be shared for multiple virtual interfaces that may operate on different channels. The mac80211 virtual interface support is designed only for single channel operation and as such, it is not suitable for this type of use. Anyway, it can be used on top of the virtual radio concept, if desired (e.g., use two virtual radios to handle two channels and then add multiple mac80211 virtual interfaces on top of each virtual radio). The new struct ath_wiphy is now registered as the driver data structure for wiphy. This structure has a pointer to the shared (among virtual wiphys of the same physical radio) struct ath_softc data. The primary wiphy maintains the allocated memory for ath_softc. Secondary (virtual) wiphys will only allocate the new ath_wiphy structure. Registration of secondary wiphys is added in a separate patch. Signed-off-by: NJouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Instead of using a hardcoded BSSID mask (mask for own addresses), iterate through all active interfaces and determine the minimal mask that covers all local addresses. Signed-off-by: NJouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
