Subject: [PATCH 0/4] nl80211 cleanups

This patchset adds some new hooks to generic
netlink and then goes on to use them to really
optimise a lot of locking code in nl80211.

It not only shrinks the code in nl80211 by     
almost 5K .text, but also greatly reduces the
likelihood of future errors.

I'd prefer to merge this through John's wireless
tree, so it'd be nice to get ACKs.            

johannes
