8f20542386 wireless: deprecate WDS and disable by default
The old WDS 4-addr frame support is very limited, e.g.
 * no encryption is possible on such links
 * it cannot support rate/HT/VHT negotiation
 * management APIs are very restricted

These make the WDS legacy mode useless in practice.

All of these are resolved by the 4-addr AP/client support,
so there's also no reason to improve WDS in the future.

Therefore, add a Kconfig option to disable legacy WDS.
This gives people an "emergency valve" while they migrate
to the better-supported 4-addr AP/client option; we plan
to remove it (and the associated cfg80211/mac80211 code,
which is the ultimate goal) in the future.

57fbcce37b cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_band
This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and
the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of
it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of
bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one.

96838d6110 b43: Fix memory leaks in b43_bus_dev_ssb_init and b43_bus_dev_bcma_init
The memory allocated by kzalloc in b43_bus_dev_ssb_init and
b43_bus_dev_bcma_init is not freed.
This patch fixes the bug by adding kfree in b43_ssb_remove,
b43_bcma_remove and error handling code of b43_bcma_probe.

Thanks Michael for his suggestion.

10fbc7cf03 b43: Remove unnecessary synchronize_irq() before free_irq()
Calling synchronize_irq() right before free_irq() is quite useless. On one
hand the IRQ can easily fire again before free_irq() is entered, on the
other hand free_irq() itself calls synchronize_irq() internally (in a race
condition free way), before any state associated with the IRQ is freed.

Patch was generated using the following semantic patch:
// <smpl>
@@
expression irq;
@@
-synchronize_irq(irq);
 free_irq(irq, ...);
// </smpl>

67edf354fa bcma: use _PMU_ in all names of PMU registers
PMU (Power Management Unit) seems to be a separated piece of hardware,
just accessed using ChipCommon core registers. In recent Broadcom
chipsets PMU is not bounded to CC but available as separated core.

To make code cleaner & easier to review (for a correct R/W access) use
clearer names.
