The "ieee80211: Workaround malformed 802.11 frames from AP" patch (see
http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git;a=commit;h=f09fc44d8c25f22c4d985bb93857338ed02feac6 )
fixes the problem with some buggy APs but also converts debug message into
an error one. This floods the log with errors when you are near such AP (you
get a message for every beacon). This patch reverts the error message back
to the debug one.

Stop processing further but return success when we receive a malformed
packet from the AP. We need this patch to workaround some AP bugs. For
example, the beacon frames from the Orinoco AP1000 contains an IE (value
= 128) with length equals to 8 but the actual frame length is only 7.

ieee80211_rx_any is new to 2.6.18-rc1, even though it appears this function
was never completed:

http://lists.sipsolutions.net/pipermail/softmac-dev/2006-February/000103.html

This patch changes ieee80211_rx_any to always claim the skb, which avoids
further driver complexity and the possibility of leaking management frames.
It also exports the function so that people can actually use it.

This adds a flag to the ieee80211_network structure which indicates whether
the stored erp_value is valid (a check against 0 is not enough, since an ERP
of 0 is valid and very meaningful).

I also added the ERP IE bit-definitions to ieee80211.h.

This is needed by some upcoming softmac patches.

Someone removed the `#ifdef CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT' from around the callsite

  [PATCH] ieee80211: remove unnecessary CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT checking

After a quick look it seems that wireless_spy_update() lives in
net/core/wirless.c, and that file is only compiled if
CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT is set. Perhaps this is Kconig work, but
in the mean time here is a reversal of the recent change.

Version 2 of the patch. Added checks for version 0
and proper from/to DS bits. Even in promisc
mode we won't receive packets from another BSSes.

bcm43xx_rx() contains code to filter out packets from
foreign BSSes and decide whether to call ieee80211_rx
or ieee80211_rx_mgt. This is not bcm specific.

Patch adapts that code and adds it to 80211
as ieee80211_rx_any() function.

This patch fixes a problem in the ieee80211 probe response and beacon
reception code that would use the packet statistics for a network even
if they were received on a channel other than that which the network
exists on.

This causes a problem in overlapping channels where, for example, a
strong AP on channel 2 could have its beacons received on channels 1 and
3, but at much lower signal levels.  If scanning was done sequentially,
this means the beacon received on channel 3 would update the AP's signal
level as being much lower than it really is, which subsequently could
cause that AP to be passed over and an alternate AP selected.

Fix QoS is not active even the network and the card is QOS enabled.
The problem is we pass the wrong ieee80211_network address to
ipw_handle_beacon/ipw_handle_probe_response, thus the
ieee80211_network->qos_data.active will not be set, causing the driver
not sending QoS frames at all.
