since commit 3afc2167f60a327a2c1e1e2600ef209a3c2b75b7 scan in not
working anymore, due to mac80211 requires rx frequency status
information.
This patch makes the driver report this information.
While NOT scanning this is straightforward.
While scanning the firmware performs RF sweep and we cannot track
the actual tuning frequency, so this is guessed by parsing beacons
and probe responses.
This should be enough for ensuring functionality.

Currently the driver uses HW encryption.
Whenever mac80211 calls the set_key() callback the driver restarts the
whole HW configuration procedure, in order to set (also) the new
WEP key.
However, by doing this, it causes the card to loose association information,
and the HW becomes unable to communicate with the BSS.
This patch adds support for sending another HW command, that sets only
the wep key, instead of resetting all.
Mac80211 key-set requests are thus handled via this new command.
Tested on my at76c503

The driver at76c50x-usb is unable to authenticate with an AP since
kernel 2.6.31 for the following reason: The join command of the firmware
needs to be sent with the right bssid before any transmission can start.
Before kernel 2.6.31 mac80211 informed its drivers about the changing
bssid early enough for at76c50x-usb but during the development of 2.6.31
mac80211's behaviour changed. Now a new bssid is set after the
association.
This patch changes the tx routine of the driver at76c50x-usb in such a
way that a new bssid is extracted from an authentication frame and the
join command with that bssid is processed.

This is a driver for usb devices based on at76c50x chipset. This is
a mac80211 port of the original at76_usb driver.
