This patch fixes mac80211 to not use the skb->cb over the queue step from virtual interfaces to the master. The patch also, for now, disables aggregation because that would still require requeuing, will fix that in a separate patch. There are two other places (software requeue and powersaving stations) where requeue can happen, but that is not currently used by any drivers/not possible to use respectively.

This patch fixes my broken 2.6.27-rc1 kernel using b43, which had not worked since the new networking stuff was merged.
I'm pretty discouraged that a change that has such an impact on wireless never made it to wireless-testing, where this kind of defect should have been found and fixed long before it ever got into mainline.
