This patch converts mac80211 and all drivers to have transmit
information and status in skb->cb rather than allocating extra
memory for it and copying all the data around. To make it fit,
a union is used where only data that is necessary for all steps
is kept outside of the union.
A number of fixes were done by Ivo, as well as the rt2x00 part
of this patch.

Fix the rate control interval definition. Thanks to Mattias Nissler for
spotting this out.

Set a better value for percentage target for failed frames. The previous value
slowed down too much rate increases in case of permanently low activity. While
at it, increase readability.

Export the non-shifted target_pf value to debugfs, so that it's human-readable.

This adds all the tunable parameters used by rc80211_pid to debugfs for easy
testing and tuning.

This adds a new debugfs file from which rate control relevant events can be
read one event per line. The output includes the current time, so graphs can be
created showing the rate control parameters. This helps in evaluating and
tuning rate control parameters. While at it, we split headers and code for
better readability.
