The functions that create the tx descriptor structure do not operate on
a queue entry at all. Signal this fact in the code by not providing a
queue entry as a parameter, but the rt2x00 device structure and the skb
directly.
This patch is a preparation for reducing the time a queue is locked for
a tx operation.

The number of flags defined for the rt2x00dev->flags field,
has been growing over the years. Currently we are approaching
the maximum number of bits which are available in the field.
A secondary problem, is that one part of the field are initialized only
during boot, because the driver requirements are initialized or device
requirements are loaded from the EEPROM. In both cases, the flags are
fixed and will not change during device operation. The other flags are
the device state, and will change frequently. So far this resulted in the fact
that for some flags, the atomic bit accessors are used, while for the others
the non-atomic variants are used.
By splitting the flags up into a "flags" and "cap_flags" we can put all flags
which are fixed inside "cap_flags". This field can then be read non-atomically.
In the "flags" field we keep the device state, which is going to be read atomically.
This adds more room for more flags in the future, and sanitizes the field access methods.

Currently, mac80211 translates the cfg80211
cipher suite selectors into ALG_* values.
That isn't all too useful, and some drivers
benefit from the distinction between WEP40
and WEP104 as well. Therefore, convert it
all to use the cipher suite selectors.

As mentioned on the linux-wireless mailing list, the current copyright
statements in the rt2x00 are meaningless, as the rt2x00 project is
not even a formal legal entity. Therefore it is better to replace
the existing copyright statements with copyright statements for the
people that actually wrote the code.
Note: Updated to the best of my knowledge with respect to who
contributed considerable amounts of code.

The old function rt2x00queue_payload_align() handled
both adding and removing L2 padding and some basic
frame alignment. The entire function was being abused
because it had multiple functions and the header length
argument was somtimes used to align the header instead
of the payload.
Additionally there was a bug when inserting L2 padding
that only the payload was aligned but not the header. This
happens when the header wasn't aligned properly by mac80211,
but rt2x00lib only moves the payload.
A secondary problem was that when removing L2 padding during
TXdone or RX the skb wasn't resized to the proper size.
Split the function into seperate functions each handling
its task as it should.

The patch moves some utility functions from mac80211 to cfg80211.
Because these functions are doing generic 802.11 operations so they
are not mac80211 specific. The moving allows some fullmac drivers
to be also benefit from these utility functions.

Some hardware require L2 padding between header and payload
because both must be aligned to a 4-byte boundary. This hardware
also is easier during the RX path since we no longer need to
move the entire payload but rather only the header to remove
the padding (mac80211 only wants the payload to be 4-byte aligned).

By placing the iv_len into the tx descriptor data and
by passing this data to the crypto IV handlers we can
save multiple calls to ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb()
and some if-statements when copying/removing the IV data
from the outgoing frame.

Move all code which determines the right TX descriptor
fields specific to crypto support into rt2x00crypto.c.
This makes the code in rt2x00queue more simpler and
better concentrates all crypto code into a single location.
With this we can also remove some ifdefs in rt2x00queue.c
since the code inside the ifdef is either very small, or
only calling empty functions (see empty function definitions
in rt2x00lib.h).

IV and EIV belong to eachother and don't require
2 seperate fields. Instead they can logically be
merged into a single array with size 2.
With this approach we can simplify the code in
rt2x00crypto.c by using a single memcpy() when
copying the iv/eiv data. Additionally we can
move some code out of if-statements because the
if-statement would always be true.

Various rt2x00 devices support hardware encryption.
Most of them require the IV/EIV to be generated by mac80211,
but require it to be provided seperately instead of within
the frame itself. This means that rt2x00lib should extract
the data from the frame and place it in the frame descriptor.
During RX the IV/EIV is provided in the descriptor by the
hardware which means that it should be inserted into the
frame by rt2x00lib.
