This patch series contains some cleanup patches for brcmsmac and then adds beacon and probe response template upload. With these features AP mode support is added in the last patch. When running AP mode in 5GHz band on my BCM43224 I get the following errors, and I do not see the network with my Intel IWL6300, the regulation restrictions in channel.c where changed before: [ 829.608000] brcmsmac bcma1:0: wl0: wlc_suspend_mac_and_wait: waited 83000 uS and MI_MACSSPNDD is still not on.

The probe responses are currently send by the ucode based on the template and by mac80211. I was searching for a switch so disable probe request forwarding from the ucode to the driver. The structure of brcmsmac is pretty complicated, because it copies many addresses into its own structs and does not use mac80211 structs in main.c. This is based on the current version of wireless-testing/master.
