In the patch sent by Daniel Drake under the title "[PATCH] ieee80211: Move
IV/ICV stripping into ieee80211_rx", a needed line was accidentally removed.
(NOTE: I'm pretty sure this was my fault, not Daniel's. -- JWL)

This patch adds a host_strip_iv_icv flag to ieee80211 which indicates that
ieee80211_rx should strip the IV/ICV/other security features from the payload.
This saves on some memmove() calls in the driver and seems like something that
belongs in the stack as it can be used by bcm43xx, ipw2200, and zd1211rw
I will submit the ipw2200 patch separately as it needs testing.
This patch also adds some sensible variable reuse (idx vs keyidx) in
ieee80211_rx

In bcm43xx-softmac, the bcm43xx_stats struct contains a variable that
is no longer used. In addition, two TODO entries related to noise
processing in bcm43xx_rx have been completed, and as unused one
is removed.

This minor patch for wireless-2.6 (softmac) adjusts the parameters of
the wireless statistics to improve the display of programs such as the
"Wireless Network Information" applet of KDE. Thanks to Dan Williams
and Jean Tourrilhes for valuable help in setting up the return of
info in dBm.
