This is fallout from moving the crypto stuff to the new lib80211

These bits are shared already between ipw2x00 and hostap, and could
probably be shared both more cleanly and with other drivers.  This
commit simply relocates the code to lib80211 and adjusts the drivers
appropriately.

<title>hostap: pad the skb-&gt;cb usage in lieu of a proper fix</title>

Like mac80211 did, this driver makes 'clever' use of skb-&gt;cb to pass
information along with an skb as it is requeued from the virtual device
to the physical wireless device.  Unfortunately, that trick no longer
works...

Unlike mac80211, code complexity and driver apathy makes this hack
the best option we have in the short run.  Hopefully someone will
eventually be motivated to code a proper fix before all the effected
hardware dies.

(Above text by me.  Johannes officially disavows all knowledge of this
hack. -- JWL)

<title>drivers/net: Kill now superfluous -&gt;last_rx stores.</title>

The generic packet receive code takes care of setting
netdev-&gt;last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the
bonding ARP monitor.

Drivers need not do it any more.

Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers
were making use of the -&gt;last_rx value themselves.

Use the newly introduced pci_ioremap_bar() function in drivers/net.
pci_ioremap_bar() just takes a pci device and a bar number, with the goal
of making it really hard to get wrong, while also having a central place
to stick sanity checks.

This converts pretty much everything to print_mac. There were
a few things that had conflicts which I have just dropped for
now, no harm done.

I've built an allyesconfig with this and looked at the files
that weren't built very carefully, but it's a huge patch.
