Eeprom read operations are mixed in the probe function.
Make the code more readable and clean by extracting this code and
moving it in a dedicated function.
The variable eeprom_cck_table_adr, now useless, is here because
it will be needed for rtl8187se support, that I hope to add soon.

SLOT, SIFS, DIFS, EIFS, CW and ACK-timeout registers are set in an
RF-code callback and their values are fixed.
This patch moves this off the rf-code, and introduce two new functions
that calculate these values depending by slot time and CW values
requested by mac80211.
This seems to improve performances on my setup.
Currently the ack and slot time values could be stored in a local
variable, but this patch stores it in the driver "priv" structure
because it will be useful for rtl8187se support that will be added
(hopefully) soon.

Basic rates setting is done with hardcoded register write with
fixed settings.
This patch introduces a new function that makes it possible to
configure basic rates and it add a check for mac80211
BSS_CHANGED_BASIC_RATES flag in order to eventually invoke that
function when needed.

The nl80211 iftype was converted to a mode value and stored in
brcmf_cfg80211_vif structure. The value was used only within
brcmfmac driver to decide execution of conditional code. Better
use wireless_dev::iftype for that as the wdev is contained in
the brcmf_cfg80211_vif structure.

SDIO tx uses a sequence number which is common for data

is protected. A mutex was used to achieve this, but it also
required the reordering of code for tx control.

This is the NFC pull request for 3.15. With this one we have:
- Support for ISO 15693 a.k.a. NFC vicinity a.k.a. Type 5 tags. ISO
15693 are long range (1 - 2 meters) vicinity tags/cards. The kernel
now supports those through the NFC netlink and digital APIs.
- Support for TI's trf7970a chipset. This chipset relies on the NFC
digital layer and the driver currently supports type 2, 4A and 5 tags.
- Support for NXP's pn544 secure firmare download. The pn544 C3 chipsets
relies on a different firmware download protocal than the C2 one. We
now support both and use the right one depending on the version we
detect at runtime.
- Support for 4A tags from the NFC digital layer.
- A bunch of cleanups and minor fixes from Axel Lin and Thierry Escande.

On older chips, the INI value differ in similar ways as cycpwr_thr1, so
convert it to absolute values as well.
Since the ANI algorithm is different here compared to the old
implementation (fewer steps, controlled at a different point in time),
it makes sense to use values similar to what would be applied for newer
chips, just without relying on INI defaults.

The table was copied from the ANI implementation of AR9300. It assumes
that the INI values contain a baseline value that is usable as reference
from which to increase/decrease based on the noise immunity value.
On older chips, the differences are bigger and especially AR5008/AR9001
are configured to much more sensitive values than what is useful.
Improve ANI behavior by reverting to the absolute values used in the
previous implementation (expressed as a simple formula instead of the
old table).

When brcm80211 firmware is not installed networking hangs.
A deadlock happens because we call ieee80211_unregister_hw()
from the .start callback of struct ieee80211_ops. When .start
is called we are under rtnl lock and ieee80211_unregister_hw()
tries to take it again.
Function call stack:
dev_change_flags()
__dev_change_flags()
__dev_open()
ASSERT_RTNL() <-- Assert rtnl lock
ops->ndo_open()
.ndo_open = ieee80211_open,
ieee80211_open()
ieee80211_do_open()
drv_start()
local->ops->start()
.start = brcms_ops_start,
brcms_ops_start()
brcms_remove()
ieee80211_unregister_hw()
rtnl_lock() <-- Here we deadlock
Introduced by:
commit 25b5632fb3
("brcmsmac: request firmware in .start() callback")
This patch fixes the bug by removing the call to brcms_remove()
and moves the brcms_request_fw() call to the top of the .start
callback to not initiate anything unless firmware is installed.

qi->tqi_readyTime is written directly to registers that expect

When setting the CABQ ready time, cur_conf->beacon_interval is in TU, so
convert it to microseconds before passing it to ath9k_hw.

Currently a "r8185" integer variable is used as a boolean flag to
indicate whether the card is a rtl8185 or not.
Since now the driver supports only rtl8185 and rtl8180 cards, if
"r8185" variable is zero then the card is implicitly assumed to
be a rtl8180.
Now I'm preparing to add support for a third card type (rtl8187se).
This patch changes the "r8185" flag with an enum variable to
explicitly indicate which card type we have.
I'm submitting this this patch now, even if I still have to submit
other patches that not pertain with rtl8187se support, because
IMHO it's not worth rebasing them on the current code, using r8185
flag, and then changing them back again nearly immediately.
BTW if someone feels I really should do this, please tell me..
