mac80211: make master netdev handling sane

Currently, almost every interface type has a 'bss' pointer
pointing to BSS information. This BSS information, however,
is for a _local_ BSS, not for the BSS we joined, so having
it on a STA mode interface makes little sense, but now they
have it pointing to the master device, which is an AP mode
virtual interface. However, except for some bitrate control
data, this pointer is only used in AP/VLAN modes (for power
saving stations.)

Overall, it is not necessary to even have the master netdev
be a valid virtual interface, and it doesn't have to be on
the list of interfaces either.

This patch changes the master netdev to be special, it now
 - no longer is on the list of virtual interfaces, which
   lets me remove a lot of tests for that
 - no longer has sub_if_data attached, since that isn't used

Additionally, this patch changes some vlan/ap mode handling
that is related to these 'bss' pointers described above (but
in the VLAN case they actually make sense because there they
point to the AP they belong to); it also adds some debugging
code to IEEE80211_DEV_TO_SUB_IF to validate it is not called

only the oops in gc so far.

The solution is to disarm the ifp->timer before flushing the
rt from it.

net/wireless/nl80211.c: fix endless Netlink callback loop.

Although I only tested similar code (I don't use any of this wireless
code), the state maintainance between Netlink dump callback invocations
seems wrong here and should lead to an endless loop. There are also other
examples in the same file which might have the same problem. Perhaps someone
can actually test this (or refute my logic).

Take the simple example with only one element in the list (which should fit
into the message):

1. invocation:
  Start:
    idx = 0, start = 0
  Loop:
    condition (++idx < start) => (1 < 0) => false
    => no continue, fill one entry, exit loop, return skb->len > 0

2. invocation:
  Start:
    idx = 0, start = 1
  Loop:
    condition (++idx < start) => (1 < 1) => false
    => no continue, fill the same entry again, exit loop, return skb->len > 0

3. invocation:
  Same as 2. invocation, endless invocation of callback.

Also, iterations where the filling of an element fails should not be counted as
completed, so idx should not be incremented in this case.

rtl8187: Change detection of RTL8187B with USB ID of 8187

Some early versions of RTL8187B devices have a USB ID of 0x8187
rather than the 0x8189 of later models. In addition, it appears

rfkill: ignore errors from rfkill_toggle_radio in rfkill_add_switch

rfkill_add_switch() calls rfkill_toggle_radio() to set the state of a
recently registered rfkill class to the current global state [for that
rfkill->type].

The rfkill_toggle_radio() call is going to error out if the hardware is
RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED, and the global state is RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED.

That is a quite normal situation which I missed to account for.  As things
stand, the error return from rfkill_toggle_radio ends up causing
rfkill_register to bail out with an error (de-registering the new switch in
the process), which is Not Nice.

Change rfkill_add_switch() to not return errors because of a failed call to
rfkill_toggle_radio().  We can go back to returning errors again (if that's
indeed the right thing to do) if we define the exact error codes the
rfkill->toggle_radio callbacks are to return in each situation, so that we
can ignore the right ones only.
