Fix section mismatch by changing variable name to match one of the
whitelisted (allowable) names for pointing into init data:

<title>Use helpers to obtain task pid in printks</title>

The task_struct-&gt;pid member is going to be deprecated, so start
using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in
the kernel.

The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce
more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

<title>[HOSTAP]: set netdev type before registering AP interface</title>

<id>09703f5e79a64c744721b9c27502075232ba0ea2</id>
<content type='text'>
As detailed at https://bugs.gentoo.org/159646 hostap with hostapd confuses
udev by presenting 2 interfaces with the same MAC address. Also, at the time
of detection, the 'type' attribute is 1, identical to other hostap interfaces.

The AP interface is supposed to have type ARPHRD_IEEE80211 (801), but this is
not set until after registration.

Setting it before register_netdev() is called allows us to avoid this
confusion. We can do this by propogating the HOSTAP_INTERFACE type through
to hostap_setup_dev().

Since hardware header operations are part of the protocol class
not the device instance, make them into a separate object and
save memory.
