    iwlwifi: make broadcast station addition generic · 3459ab5a
    Reinette Chatre authored
    Add function pointer for broadcast station addition so that we can call it
    in from iwlcore at a later time. We only distinguish between iwlagn and
    iwl3945 broadcast station addition. For the iwl3945 station addition we add
    that function to iwlcore since that is where most station functionality
    resides, making it part of iwl3945 will require significant code
    reorganization that will dilute station management functionality. This
    seems to be an efficient solution.
    
    It may seem as though we are removing error checking when adding the 3945
    broadcast station but this error checking was never really necessary since
    the function returns the station id and the broadcast station id is always
    set.
