[NETNS][IPV6] addrconf - make addrconf per namespace
All the infrastructure to propagate the network namespace information
is ready. Make use of it.
There is a special case here between the initial network namespace and
the other namespaces:
* When ipv6 is initialized at boot time (aka in the init_net), it
registers to the notifier callback. So addrconf_notify will be called
as many time as there are network devices setup on the system and the
function will add ipv6 addresses to the network devices. But the first
device which needs to have its ipv6 address setup is the loopback,
unfortunatly this is not the case. So the loopback address is setup
manually in the ipv6 init function.
* With the network namespace, this ordering problem does not appears
because notifier is already setup and active, so as soon as we
register the loopback the ipv6 address is setup and it will be the
first device.

The timer callback, fib6_run_gc, is actually used to be called
synchronously by some functions and asynchronously when the timer
expires.
When the timer expires, the delay specified for fib6_run_gc parameter

mac80211: atomically check whether STA exists already
When a STA structure is added, it is often checked whether it
already exists before adding it. This, however, isn't done
atomically so there is a race condition that could lead to two
STA structures being added with the same MAC address. This
patch changes sta_info_add() to return an ERR_PTR in case
of failure and adds the failure mode -EEXIST when the STA
already exists.

mac80211: rework TX filtered frame code
This reworks the code for TX filtered frames, splitting it out to
a new function to handle those cases, making the clear instruction
a flag and renaming a few things to be easier to understand and
less Atheros hardware specific. Finally, it also makes the comments
explain more.

This consolidates all TIM handling code to avoid re-introducing

mac80211: remove sta TIM flag, fix expiry TIM handling
The TIM flag that is kept in each station's info is completely
useless, there's no code (aside from the debugfs display code)
checking it, hence it can be removed. While doing that, I noticed
that the TIM handling is broken when buffered frames expire, so
fix that.

mac80211: invoke set_tim() callback after setting own TIM info
Drivers should be allowed to simply get a complete new beacon when
set_tim() is invoked (and set_tim() is required for drivers that
just want a beacon template!), so we need to update our own TIM
bitmap before calling set_tim() so that getting the beacon will
now get an already updated beacon.

rt2x00: Fix MAC address defines in rt61pci
The MAC address offset defines were incorrect because
the byte offset was used instead of word index. This
bug had no affect on normal operations since these
defines weren't used. (EEPROM_MAC_ADDR_0 was used
to read 6 bytes from).

rt2x00: Remove async vendor request calls from rt2x00usb
The async vendor requests are a ugly hack which is not working correctly.
The proper fix for the scheduling while atomic issue is finding out why
we can't use led classes for USB drivers and fix that.
Just replace all async calls with the regular ones and print an
error for the disallowed LED configuration attempts. That will
help in determining which led class is causing the problem.

Don't wildly pass any number for num_rates to rt2x00lib,

Same for num_modes but then for the 2GHZ and 5GHZ band.
