I don't understand why you put output power to private ioctl, if there
is standard wireless extention ioctl SIOCSIWTXPOW &  SIOCGIWTXPOW.
iwconfig ethX txpower

Currently I'm looking at private ioctls and I think that maybe some
private ioctls should be combined into one, e.g. all acl ioctl combined
into one, and the first byte shows tha value should be read/write/add
mac/reset acl and so on.
Because if we want to add more functionality, soon we'll get no free
private ioctls.

Or my other suggestion would be to write a helper program to controll
private ioctls. So we could use our own private ioctl structure to
control the card.
