  Log:
  Update the WaveLAN/IEEE driver:
  
  - Convert to new bus attachment scheme. Thanks to Blaz Zupan for doing
    the initial work here. One thing I changed was to have the attach
    and detach routines work like the PCI drivers, which means that in
    theory you should be able to load and unload the driver like the PCI
    NIC drivers, however the pccard support for this hasn't settled down
    yet so it doesn't quite work. Once the pccard work is done, I'll have
    to revisit this.
  
  - Add device wi0 to PCCARD. If we're lucky, people should be able to
    install via their WaveLAN cards now.
  
  - Add support for signal strength caching. The wicontrol utility has
    also been updated to allow zeroing and displaying the signal strength
    cache.
  
  - Add a /sys/modules/wi directory and fix a Makefile to builf if_wi.ko.
    Currently this module is only built for the i386 platform, though once
    the pccard stuff is done it should be able to work on the alpha too.
    (Theoretically you should be able to plug one of the WaveLAN/IEEE ISA
    cards into an alpha with an ISA slot, but we'll see how that turns out.
  
  - Update LINT to use only device wi0. There is no true ISA version of
    the WaveLAN/IEEE so we'll never use an ISA attachment.
  
  - Update files.i386 so that if_wi is dependent on card.
