Subject: [PATCH 3.2 052/185] prism54: set netdev type to "wlan"

3.2.54-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dan Williams <dcbw@...hat.com>

commit 8e3ffa471091c560deb6738ed9ab7445b7a5fd04 upstream.

Userspace uses the netdev devtype for stuff like device naming and type
detection.  Be nice and set it.  Remove the pointless #if/#endif around
SET_NETDEV_DEV too.
