Subject: [PATCH 3.16 206/254] mac80211_hwsim: validate number of different
 channels

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

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

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@...el.com>

commit 51a1aaa631c90223888d8beac4d649dc11d2ca55 upstream.

When creating a new radio on the fly, hwsim allows this
to be done with an arbitrary number of channels, but
cfg80211 only supports a limited number of simultaneous
channels, leading to a warning.

Fix this by validating the number - this requires moving
the define for the maximum out to a visible header file.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
 - Test chans intead of param.channels
 - GENL_SET_ERR_MSG() is not available
