When built with Control Flow Integrity, function prototypes between
caller and function declaration must match. These mismatches are visible
at compile time with the new -Wcast-function-type-strict in Clang[1].

Fix a total of 10 warnings like these:

../drivers/net/wireless/intersil/orinoco/wext.c:1390:27: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'const iw_handler' (aka 'int (*const)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, union iwreq_data *, char *)') with an expression of type 'int (struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, struct iw_param *, char *)' [-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types]
        IW_HANDLER(SIOCGIWRETRY,        cfg80211_wext_giwretry),
                                        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
../include/uapi/linux/wireless.h:357:23: note: expanded from macro 'IW_HANDLER'
        [IW_IOCTL_IDX(id)] = func

The cfg80211 Wireless Extension handler callbacks (iw_handler) use a
union for the data argument. Actually use the union and perform explicit
member selection in the function body instead of having a function
prototype mismatch. No significant binary differences were seen 
before/after changes.

This hunk should be in the orinoco patch, I think?

The common practice seems to be to use IW_HANDLER instead of open-coding
it like this.

	IW_HANDLER(SIOCGIWRETRY,	cfg80211_wext_giwretry),

I just didn't want to have this huge patch touching multiple
different files. That's why I decided to split it up into three
separate patches.

But yeah; now it seems like a good idea to merge patches 1 to 3
into just a single patch.

Yeah; I forget this after reverting Sami's changes:

32fc4a9ad56f ("cfg80211: fix callback type mismatches in wext-compat")

I'll fix it up. :)

Thanks for the feedback!
