Get rid of drivers that are either limited to 802.11b/g or don't even support
cfg80211/mac80211. Most of these are either limited to boards that we don't even
support anymore because of firmware size, or were only used for custom hacks by
a really small number of users in the past.
Let's get rid of those to reduce the maintenance effort and the number of useless
packages

phy
list
List all wireless devices and their capabilities.

dev <devname> ibss join <SSID> <freq in MHz> [HT20|HT40+|HT40-|NOHT] [fixed-freq] [<fixed bssid>] [beacon-interval <TU>] [basic-rates <rate in Mbps,rate2,...>] [mcast-rate <rate in Mbps>] [key d:0:abcde]
Join the IBSS cell with the given SSID, if it doesn't exist create
it on the given frequency. When fixed frequency is requested, don't
join/create a cell on a different frequency. When a fixed BSSID is
requested use that BSSID and do not adopt another cell's BSSID even
if it has higher TSF and the same SSID. If an IBSS is created, create
it with the specified basic-rates, multicast-rate and beacon-interval.
