There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.

Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

Remove unnecessary if statements because libipw_set_geo always
returns success. Also change function's return value from int
to void.

"ieee80211" was the old name of the common library for ipw2100 and
ipw2200. It was renamed to "libipw", but some occurrences of the old
name remained.

Rename alloc_ieee80211() to alloc_libipw() and free_ieee80211() to
free_libipw(). Adjust comments and label names. Change prefixes in
diagnostic messages.

Keep /proc/net/ieee80211 under the original name to avoid breaking user
interface.

Move the affected EXPORT_SYMBOL macros to their proper places.

The ieee->networks consists of 128 struct libipw_network entries. If
we allocate this chunk of memory altogether, it ends up with an
order 4 page allocation. High order page allocation is likely to fail
on system high load. This patch splits the big chunk memory allocation
into small pieces, each is 344 bytes, allocates them with 128 times.

For now, leave CONFIG_IPW2200_PROMISCUOUS stuff alone. Eventually
migrate it to cfg80211 when the add/del/change_virtual_intf methods
are implemented.

(v2: Fix unconditional wiphy_unregister in libipw which was causing
problems for ipw2100, somewhat based on prior attempted fix
by Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com>. Previously both original version of
this patch and Zhu Yi's fix attempt were reverted due to
discovery of regressions. -- JWL)

This reverts commit b8ecd988b1670035a05035c553c08331214d6603.

Due to poor API call balancing by me, this commit not only broke ipw2200
if it can't find it's firmware, it broke ipw2100 basically anytime you
removed the module. At this point in the cycle, let's just put it back
to a sane state and try again next time...

Subject: BUG: oops when "rmmod ipw2200"

This happened on wireless-testing v2.6.32-rc6-41575-g5e68bfb. I
modprobed ipw2200, put it into monitor mode, used tshark a while to
monitor, then I stopped tshark, "ifconfig eth2 down" and finally
"rmmod ipw2200", and voila:

For non-monitor interfaces, the syntax for alloc_ieee80211/free_80211
is wrong. Because alloc_ieee80211 only creates (wiphy_new) a wiphy, but
free_80211() does wiphy_unregister() also. This is only correct when
the later wiphy_register() is called successfully, which apparently
is not the case for your fw doesn't exist one.

Mostly just simple conversions:
* ray_cs had bogus return of NET_TX_LOCKED but driver
was not using NETIF_F_LLTX
* hostap and ipw2x00 had some code that returned value
from a called function that also had to change to return netdev_tx_t
