It has always annoyed me that mac80211 uses ieee80211_ prefix. For some time already I have been planning to try to do something about it and finally I
started it. Here's my first shot at it.

In this patchset I first fix some issues I found from the drivers, then create mac80211-compat.h to make the transition as smooth as possible and
then start changing mac80211 itself.

FWIW, I don't mind the rename, but I don't like the compat.h thing. The transition won't be smoothed by this, it just means the transition will drag out as things conflict etc. If we want to rename, we'll need to bite the bullet eventually anyway.
