Subject: [RFC] mac80211: sample survey implementation for mac80211 & hwsim

This adds the survey function to both mac80211 itself and to mac80211_hwsim.
For the latter driver, we simply invent some noise level.A real driver which
cannot determine the real channel noise MUST NOT report any noise, especially
not a magically conjured one :-)

Oh, that should have been [PATCH].

So much to copying subject lines from quilt patches without really reading.

How does this work with multiple channels? And how about knowing how old
the info is?

Lazy huh? :)
