The driver had a global constant ether_bcast, which was copied
whenever a broadcast mac address was needed. This patch does a
memset(dest, 0xFF, ETH_ALEN) instead and consequently removes
the global ether_bcast.

The include file linux/ieee80211.h contains three definitions for

enum ieee80211_eid {
:
WLAN_EID_WPA = 221,
WLAN_EID_GENERIC = 221,
WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC = 221,
:
};
The standard refers to this as "vendor specific" element so the
other two definitions are better not used. This patch changes the
wireless drivers to use one definition, ie. WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC.

The problem here is that we loop until "remained_buf_len" is less than
zero, but since it is unsigned, it never is.
"remained_buf_len" has to be large enough to hold the value from
"mgmt_ie_buf_len". That variable is type u32, but it only holds small
values so I have changed to both variables to int.
Also I removed the bogus initialization from "mgmt_ie_buf_len" so that
GCC can detect if it is used unitialized. I moved the declaration of
"remained_buf_len" closer to where it is used so it's easier to read.
