p80211metadef.h and p80211metastruct.h both have comments stating they
are autogenerated and should not be edited. However, neither is
generated during build and both have had numerous manual edits since
the driver has been in staging.

Several of the wlan-ng header files had C++-style SPDX comments. Fixed
checkpatch warnings by replacing with C-style comments, as per the
kernel docs.

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.
Update the wlan-ng driver files with the correct SPDX license identifier
based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a
legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler
plate text.
This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

Switch driver over from wext to cfg80211 interface.
Some Notes:
- This patch moves the driver wholesale from wext to cfg80211. Wext
support is still provided through the cfg80211 provided wext
compatability layer.
- Currently only infrastructure mode is implemented. Ad hoc mode is not
yet implemented, but can be added.
- It does not support connecting to a specified bssid, instead roaming
is handled by the card itself. This matches the behaviour of the
existing driver.
- It has been tested using NetworkManager (via wpa_supplicant)
configured to use the wext compatability layer, and then again with the
native nl80211 layer.

wlan-ng needed to interact with userspace, and support very old kernels,
so it used to define its own types for integers to ensure consistency.
It's all rather irrelevant now.

This adds the wlan-ng prism2 USB driver to the drivers/staging tree.
The code was originally written by the linux-wlan-ng team, patched by
some Novell engineers to properly work on newer kernels, and then hacked
into place in order to get it to build properly in a single subdirectory
within the kernel tree by me.
It supports a wide range of older USB prism2 devices, and contains a
80211 stack to support this single driver.
