3.16.55-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Johannes Berg <[email protected]> commit 51a1aaa631c90223888d8beac4d649dc11d2ca55 upstream. When creating a new radio on the fly, hwsim allows this to be done with an arbitrary number of channels, but cfg80211 only supports a limited number of simultaneous channels, leading to a warning. Fix this by validating the number - this requires moving the define for the maximum out to a visible header file.
