o don't strip the Ethernet header from inbound packets; pass packets
up the stack intact (required significant changes to some drivers)
o reference common definitions in net/ethernet.h (e.g. ETHER_ALIGN)
o track ether_ifattach/ether_ifdetach API changes
o track bpf changes (use BPF_TAP and BPF_MTAP)
o track vlan changes (ifnet capabilities, revised processing scheme, etc.)
o use if_input to pass packets "up"
o call ether_ioctl for default handling of ioctls

problems with the firmware and will result in a) poor performance and
b) the inability to associate certain types of cards (most notibly
cisco).
Idea obtained from OpenBSD, but I implemented it by clearing the
IFF_PROMISC flag rather than the refusing to honor it downstream.
(apparently by markus@, at least committed by him). This has the
advantage of not using the bad IV's from Fluhrer/Mantin/Shamir as well
as bringing the drivers a little closer together.
Also use a few constants in place of magic numbers in one place.

wrote. This code was for 4.5-release, so I've ported it to -current
and made a few minor tweaks. The biggest non-style tweak was to not
make access point the default.
More changes will be needed to get this actually working, but I wanted
to get a relatively pure baseline. This doesn't seem to break what
works now.

o OpenBSD's wiconfig tells me that a value of '2' is for sony wireless
cards, 1 is for lucent (which we already knew) and '5' is for embedded
lucent cards.
o Move some RID definitions to if_wavelan_ieee.h and use NetBSD names
more often.
# more work is still needed in this area.
1) Properly detect the Symbol based cards (The 3Com Airconnect and their
ilk) and only reset them *ONCE* ever. This appears to make them work,
but more testing is needed. The tests that would wedge up my machine
completely now appear to work, but I have not real access points
handy.
2) Report both the Station firmware and the Primary firmware on Prism
based cards. On Lucent based cards, only report the station firmware
since that's all it supports. On symbol cards, report the symbol
specific firmware name as its station firmware.
3) Better Prism 2.5 and 3 family names. We really need to go table
driven for this.
4) Workaround for bugs in Intersil's firmware is only needed for at most
0.8.2 and earlier, since 0.8.3 and later appear to work.

general cleanup of the API. The entire API now consists of two functions
similar to the pre-KSE API. The suser() function takes a thread pointer
as its only argument. The td_ucred member of this thread must be valid
so the only valid thread pointers are curthread and a few kernel threads
such as thread0. The suser_cred() function takes a pointer to a struct
ucred as its first argument and an integer flag as its second argument.
The flag is currently only used for the PRISON_ROOT flag.

o Add exerpimental support for identifying lucent cards. All of mine
come back with ID of 1, but NetBSD committed code for 5. So accept
both.
o rename wi_prism2_ver to wi_firmware_ver so that we could, if necessary,
do special things for lucent cards too.
o Bring in a small part of the changes from airtools: The wi_cmd function
now takes two additional arguments. I didn't bring in their ioctls yet.
o eliminate the use of LE16TOH, and remove its define.
o Print the firmware as if there were 100 versions instead of 10. This means
that 6.1 and 6.10 aren't confusing to people. We now print 6.01 in the
former case.
# A good junior hacker project would be to merge the NetBSD, FreeBSD, and
