[PATCH] lxc: move wireless PHYs to a network namespace

[Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Lubomir Rintel <lkundrak@xxxxx>

The 802.11 interfaces can not be moved by themselves, their Phy has to move too.

If there are other interfaces, they have to move too -- hopefully it's not too
confusing. This is a less-invasive alternative to defining a new hostdev type
for PHYs.
