This patchset cleans channel handling in the driver which became a bit messy recently. We get rid of too many variables in PHY struct switching to a simple struct cfg80211_chan_def (unsigned int channel is still there because a lot of code depends on it). This also slightly changes PHY ops to make PHY re-init possible with the current channel (this will be needed for band switching). This has been basically tested for regressions on the following cards: 14e4:4312 BCM4311 G-PHY rev 8 14e4:4315 BCM4312 LP-PHY rev 1 14e4:4328 BCM4321 N-PHY rev 2 14e4:432b BCM4322 N-PHY rev 4 14e4:4353 BCM43224 N-PHY rev 6 (note 14e4:4312 was never working correctly for me). John: it's the last "big thing" I wanted for 3.16. It's a bit late, so to minimalize a risk I gave it some testing on many devices. If you manage to get it for 3.16, that will be cool for me. Still, it's up to you, not a big pressure.
