I still need this hack to work around the fact that softmac doesn't
attempt to associate when we bring the device up...

The problem here is that the bcm34xx driver and the ieee80211
stack do not agree on what channels are possible for 802.11a.
The ieee80211 stack only wants channels between 34 and 165, while
the bcm43xx driver accepts anything from 0 to 200. I made the
bcm43xx driver comply with the ieee80211 stack expectations, by
using the proper constants.

Check for valid MAC address in SPROM fields instead of relying on
PHY type while setting the MAC address in the networking subsystem,
as some devices have multiple PHYs.

This cleans up the bcm43xx sysfs code and makes it compliant
with the unwritten sysfs rules (at least I hope so).

This is the starting point to make the driver out-of-order-MMIO-stores safe.
There are more mmiowb() needed.

The proper fix for this is to move IRQ enabling to the end of
init_board. But this is nontrivial and needs to be done with care.
Stay with this cheap workaround for now.

This patch contains the beginnings of ethtool support for bcm43xx.
It only implements get_drvinfo and get_link, but that's enough for
ifplugd to use ethtool to know whether we're associated or not and then
start or stop dhcp as necessary.

Geographical restriction should become part of the 80211 stack,
so every driver does not have to duplicate it.
