Subject: [052/289] mac80211: make the beacon monitor available externally

2.6.36-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@...eros.com>

commit d3a910a8e4e846b9a767d35483f4dc7c6de7af82 upstream.

This will be used by other components next. The beacon
monitor was added as of 2.6.34 so these fixes are applicable
only to kernels >= 2.6.34.
