Joe Perches 9bd91f3c00 brcm80211: Remove extern from function prototypes
There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources.  Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.

Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler.  Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

Arend van Spriel 7b2385b953 brcmsmac: rework of mac80211 .flush() callback operation
This patch addresses a long standing issue of the driver with the
mac80211 .flush() callback. Since implementing the .flush() callback
a number of issues have been fixed, but a WARN_ON_ONCE() was still
triggered because the timeout on the flush could still occur.

This patch changes the awkward design using msleep() into one using
a waitqueue. The waiting flush() context will kick the transmit dma
when it is idle and the timeout used waiting for the event is set
to 500 ms. Worst case there can be 64 frames outstanding for transmit
in the driver. At a rate of 1Mbps that would take 1.5 seconds assuming
MTU is 1500 bytes and ignoring retries. The WARN_ON_ONCE() is also
removed as this was put in to indicate the flush timeout as a reason
for the driver to stall. That was not happening since fixing endless
AMPDU retries with following upstream commit:

Joe Perches 8ae746543c brcm80211: Use normal DEBUG define
Current CONFIG_BRCMDBG flag when enabled does not
necessarily enable proper pr_debug output when
DEBUG is not also enabled.

Remove BCMDBG define and just use DEBUG instead.

Arend van Spriel 2e756560a8 brcm80211: smac: change from pci device driver to bcma device driver
A new bus driver called "bcma" has been introduced into the kernel tree
which considers the Broadcom AMBA chip interconnect as a bus. Each core in
the chip is a bcma device. This commit changes brcms_mac80211.c into
a bcma device driver.

Roland Vossen c261bdf8ac brcm80211: smac: indicate severe problems to Mac80211
In case the hardware crashes, a reinitialization internal to the driver
was performed. Since Mac80211 must be in the know of such an event as
well, ieee80211_restart_hw() is now called.

Timer functions were called at soft-irq level, leading to the limitation
that mutexes could not be used. Lifted this limitation by migrating to
