Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: split ieee80211_key_alloc/free

In order to RCU-ify sta_info, we need to be able to allocate
a key without linking it to an sdata/sta structure (because
allocation cannot be done in an rcu critical section). This
patch splits up ieee80211_key_alloc() and updates all users
appropriately.

While at it, this patch fixes a number of race conditions
such as finally making key replacement atomic, unfortunately
at the expense of more complex code.

Note that this patch documents /existing/ bugs with sta info
and key interaction, there is currently a race condition
when a sta info is freed without holding the RTNL. This will
finally be fixed by a followup patch.
