The goal of this patch set is to provide improved support for newer devices
supported by the proprietary broadcom-wl driver. This includes some general
cleanup items, bug fixes, and some enhancements. I've tried to keep the
individual patches small and focused on a single topic.
Testing was limited to devices I have available to me (WRT54GS v1.1 and E3000).
I have not been able to get encrypted WDS working with the existing
mechanization
in /etc/hotplug.d/net/20-broadcom-wds (nas4not); but I have gotten it to work by
eliminating the use of the hotplug script and setting up the WDS interfaces
directly in /lib/wifi/broadcom.sh (specifying them on the 'nas' command line).
This change is not included in this patch set; but I would clean it up and
submit it, assuming this patch set is accepted (perhaps w/ modifications), if
the WDS experience is still the same for others and there were no fundamental
objections to the approach.

v2 - Incorporated Jow's comment to rename the interfaces (wl0, wl0-1, wl0-2...,
and
wds0-1, wds0-2...).
Added an error check when attempting to read 'bssmax'.
The rest are just along for the ride.
