We sometimes need to support new firmware API for
a while before we can publish them since testing
them fully takes a long time. We could keep all
the new code private, but that causes plenty of
problems and sometimes we can give a pre-release
version of firmware to people who need to test.
However, when we just bump the API version, the
driver will warn everybody that their firmware is
outdated, when in fact it isn't. (Currently our
case for this doesn't really change the API but
bumping the API version is necessary because the
firmware isn't fully backward compatible)
In order to handle this in the future, add a new
"api_ok" version; only below this will the driver
warn that the uCode is too old.

New uCode images will use queue 10 for TX
during scan (for P2P offchannel operation
scan). We'll bump the API version of those,
but before we need to reserve queue 10 and
stop using it for aggregation.
To simplify the code, always reserve it,
we could continue using it on older uCode
images but that'd be rather complicated.
Also, we'll set it up to map to the right
FIFO as needed later, but as we don't use
the queue now that doesn't hurt.

The chip common and mips core have to be setup early in the boot
process to get the cpu clock.
bcma_bus_early_register() gets pointers to some space to store the core
data and searches for the chip common and mips core and initializes
chip common. After that was done and the kernel is out of early boot we
just have to run bcma_bus_register() and it will search for the other
cores, initialize and register them.
The cores are getting the same numbers as before.

This driver uses information from the self member of the pci_bus struct to
get information regarding the bridge to which the PCIe device is attached.
Unfortunately, this member is not established on all architectures, which
leads to a kernel oops.
Skipping the entire block that uses the self member to determine the bridge
vendor will only affect RTL8192DE devices as that driver sets the ASPM support
flag differently when the bridge vendor is Intel. If the self member is
available, there is no functional change.
This patch fixes Bugzilla No. 40212.
