Proposed patches solve issue with high bitrates not fitting into u16.
I split it into 2 patches: one introduces new u32 bitrate,
and 2-nd adds 60g specific calculations.
Idea is to report (in nl80211) both old and new values,
or only new if it not fits into u16.
User space tools will migrate to the new bitrate, then old one
may be removed from kernel.
There are few places where cfg80211_calculate_bitrate() used
besides nl80211.c; but these places are OK with bitrate changing
from u16 to u32.

{nl,cfg}80211: support high bitrates
