This patch introduces 802.11ac support to mac80211 and hostapd. The split of
VHT160 in two 80 MHz bands is not yet supported, since it requires an
additional user supplied parameter for the channel of the second band.

The wimax key will be used as a generic wwan key starting with Linux
3.13. The brcm47xx target uses this key for the 3g buttons. Also remove
the ifdef around KEY_WPS_BUTTON, this is in the kernel for a long time
now.

This patch fixes a bug in /lib/netifd/wireless/mac80211.sh, where
the UCI setting of wireless multicast traffic (in uci: mcast_rate)
is not respected within netifd. Especially in Freifunk mesh networks
the olsr routing as effected by this, as only the lowest mcast_rate
was used, even when uci ncast_rate was set to something else.
In function mac80211_setup_adhoc() the value of mcast_rate is missing
in json_get_vars.

When wifi radio is reset, some bits in (undocumented) USB registers may
flip. Patch adds setting them after radio reset (channel change, up/down).
With this patch stability of USB1.1 full-speed devices, connected directly
to AR9331 host port (no USB2.0 hub) is improved.
See "ar9331's usb stability issue" OpenWrt forum thread for details:
