cfg80211: export cfg80211_ref_bss
This is needed by mac80211 to keep a reference to a BSS alive for the auth process. Remove the old version of cfg80211_ref_bss() since it's not actually used. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
