In preparation for 2.6.21-rc1, I pulled Linus' latest tree into a
branch of wireless-dev.  I hit a build problem with the sysfs stuff,
due to the recent changes from class_device -> device for net_device.
Hmm, need to look up the reason and see if wiphy stuff should follow.
Exactly what I was thinking, and what made me question the patch's
completeness...

Since I don't count sysfs as a strength, I thought it was worth
posting this for some review before I actually pulled Linus' latest
into wireless-dev and slapped this on top of it... :-)

Comments?
Seems fine. Is to_net_dev() defined in netdevice.h now?
 
Ja.
OTOH, we might want to take this opportunity and move it all to
debugfs ;)
Excellent suggestion.  But for now, I just want my tree to build and
run... :-)

Thanks for the eyeballs!
