[PATCH] ieee80211: Make ieee80211_rx_any usable

ieee80211_rx_any is new to 2.6.18-rc1, even though it appears this function
was never completed:

http://lists.sipsolutions.net/pipermail/softmac-dev/2006-February/000103.html

This patch changes ieee80211_rx_any to always claim the skb, which avoids
further driver complexity and the possibility of leaking management frames.
It also exports the function so that people can actually use it.
