Scanned BSS entries are timestamped with jiffies, which doesn't
increment across suspend and hibernate.  On resume, every BSS in the
scan list looks like it was scanned within the last 10 seconds,
irregardless of how long the machine was actually asleep.  Age scan
results on resume with the time spent during sleep so userspace has a
clue how old they really are.

This should help implement suspend/resume in mac80211, these
hooks will be run before the device is suspended and after it
resumes. Therefore, they can touch the hardware as much as
they want to.

Remove converting the MAC address to a string by a direct byte
conversion and use %pM instead, since the code is now boilerplate
use a macro to define the show functions, and also use the shorter
__ATTR_RO macro to define the attributes.

This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a
long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the
proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong
in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent
environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations.

Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the
error handling.

net/wireless/sysfs.c:108: warning: ‘wiphy_uevent’ defined but not used

when CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n is because the only usage site of this function
is #ifdef'ed as such, so let's #ifdef the definition also.

This patch creates the core cfg80211 code along with some sysfs bits.
This is a stripped down version to allow mac80211 to function, but
doesn't include any configuration yet except for creating and removing
virtual interfaces.

This patch includes the nl80211 header file but it only contains the
interface types which the cfg80211 interface for creating virtual
interfaces relies on.
