Inaky Perez-Gonzalez 7481806dcf wimax: a new API call was added, increment minor protocol version number
As the 'state_get' API call was added, we need to increase the minor
protocol version number so applications that depend on the can check
it's presence.

Paulius Zaleckas 7f0333eb2f wimax: Add netlink interface to get device state
wimax connection manager / daemon has to know what is current
state of the device. Previously it was only possible to get
notification whet state has changed.

Note:

 By mistake, the new generic netlink's number for
 WIMAX_GNL_OP_STATE_GET was declared inserting into the existing list
 of API calls, not appending; thus, it'd break existing API.

 Fixed by Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com> by moving to
 the tail, where we add to the interface, not modify the interface.

 Thanks to Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> for catching this.

drivers to integrate into the WiMAX stack. Provides usage
documentation.
