This patch adds a mac80211 based wireless driver for the rtl8180 and
rtl8185 PCI wireless cards. Also included are some rtl8187 changes
required due to the relationship between that driver and this one.
Michael Wu is primarily responsible for the initial driver and rtl8185
support. Andreas Merello provided the additional rtl8180 support.
Thanks to Jukka Ruohonen for the donating a rtl8185 card! It was very
helpful for the rtl8225z2 code.

This turns out to be true only for rtl8180. On rtl8187, power levels are
indeed stored in nibbles, so this patch is wrong. Please revert this patch.

I failed to notice that a u16 was being passed to the hardware.
This fixes it.
