In this driver, netdev's private data is wlandevice_t. And the
wlandev(type of wlandevice_t) is exist before netdev be allocated. So
use netdev->ml_priv to point to the private data.
I am not sure whether I should consider the kernel version older than
2.3.38. Because in those kernels, netdevice_t is "structure dev"
instead of "structure net_device" and of course "dev->ml_priv" will
cause compile error. But before my patch, in function wlan_setup(),
there is a ether_setup(net_device) which already broke kernels which
older than 2.3.38.

This adds the wlan-ng prism2 USB driver to the drivers/staging tree.
The code was originally written by the linux-wlan-ng team, patched by
some Novell engineers to properly work on newer kernels, and then hacked
into place in order to get it to build properly in a single subdirectory
within the kernel tree by me.
It supports a wide range of older USB prism2 devices, and contains a
80211 stack to support this single driver.
