This commit restructures the compat code regarding cfg80211 to achieve the following:
a) Allows to compile kernels < 3.16 with -Werror by replacing the "#warning" with a runtime warning through pr_warn_once(). b) Allows to run < 3.16 kernels without warnings if no cfg80211 based interface is used. c) Migrates cfg80211 compat code from compat.h to compat cfg80211.h to keep compat.h slim.
