As described at
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/86084
libertas is taking a long time to load because it loads firmware
during module loading.
Add a new API for interface drivers to load their firmware
asynchronously. The same semantics of the firmware table are followed
like before.
Interface drivers will be converted in follow-up patches, then we can
remove the old, synchronous firmware loading function.

Remove the ability to pass module parameters with firmware filenames
for USB and SDIO interfaces.
Remove the ability to pass custom "user" filenames to lbs_get_firmware().
Remove the ability to reprogram internal device memory with a different
firmware from the USB driver (we don't know of any users), and simplify
the OLPC firmware loading quirk to simply placing the OLPC firmware
at the top of the list (we don't know of any users other than OLPC).
Move lbs_get_firmware() into its own file.
These simplifications should have no real-life effect but make the
upcoming transition to asynchronous firmware loading considerably less
painful.

The recent changes to only power the device when the interface up
introduced a bug: changing interface type, legal when the interface
is down, performs device I/O.
Fix this functionality by validating and recording the interface
type when the change is requested, but only applying the change
if/when the interface is brought up.

Modify the driver so that it does not function when the interface is
down, in preparation for runtime power management.
No commands can be run while the interface is down, so the ndo_dev_stop
routine now directly does all necessary work (including asking the device
to disconnect from the network and disabling multicast functionality)
directly.
power_save and power_restore hooks are added meaning that card drivers
can take steps to turn the device off when the interface is down.
The MAC address can now only be changed when all interfaces are down;
the new address will be programmed when an interface gets brought up.
This matches mac80211 behaviour.
Also, some small cleanups/simplifications were made in the surrounding
device handling logic.

SDIO, GSPI, and CS all use 2-stage firmware and the loading
process and logic should be the same. Allow module parameters
to override the automatic firmware choice, otherwise just walk
the bus driver's firmware table and pick out the first firmware
pair that exists for the given model.
Some special care is taken to allow overriding of just the helper
or the main firmware, but let the other of the pair be chosen
automatically.

Added 11d support for libertas driver using cfg80211. This is based on Holger
Shurig's initial work to add cfg80211 support libertas.
(https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/64286/)
Please let us know, if there are any improvements comments.
Code is added to send 11d enable command to firmware while
initialisation and pass 11d specific information to firmware
when notifier handler is called by cfg80211.

In suspend() host sleep is activated using already configured
host sleep parameters through wol command, and in resume() host
sleep is cancelled. Earlier priv->fw_ready flag used to reset and
set in suspend and resume handler respectively. Since after suspend
only host goes into sleep state and firmware is always ready, those
changes in flag state are removed.

configured using iwconfig command. This is tested on SD8688, SD8686 cards
with firmware versions 10.38.1.p25, 9.70.4.p0 respectively on 32-bit and 64-bit
platforms. Tests have been done for USB/CS cards to make sure that the patch
won't break USB/CS code. We didn't test the if_spi driver.

This patch (co-developed by Dan Williams and Holger Schurig) uses a kfifo
object for events and a swapping buffer scheme for the command response to
preserve the zero-copy semantics of the CF driver and keep memory usage low.
The main thread should only ever touch the buffer indexed by priv->resp_idx,
while the interface code is free to write to the second buffer, then swap
priv->resp_idx under the driver spinlock. The firmware specs only permit
one in-flight command, so there will only ever be one command response to
process at a time.

The libertas driver exports a number of symbols with no in-tree users;
remove these unused exports. lbs_reset_device() is completely unused, with
no callers at all, so remove the function completely.
A couple of these unused exported symbols are static, which causes the
following build error on ia64 with gcc 4.2.3:
drivers/net/wireless/libertas/main.c:1375: error: __ksymtab_lbs_remove_mesh causes a section type conflict

and all callers were starting off from that. Don't wake the netif

It was buggy as hell anyway, since it was just spewing packets at the
device when it wasn't necessarily ready for them (in the USB case, while
the URB was still busy).
We could probably do with a better way of flushing packets to the device
_immediately_, before we stick it back into sleep mode. But we can no
longer just dequeue packets directly, it seems.

Using an arbitrary firmware command was actually very painful. One
had to change big switch() statements in cmd.c, cmdresp.c, add
structs to the big union in "struct cmd_ds_command" and add the
define for the CMD_802_11_xxx to the proper place.
With this function, this is now much easier. For now, it implements
a blocking (a.k.a. CMD_OPTION_WAITFORRSP) way where one deals directly
with command requests and response buffers. You can do everything in
one place:

This patch moves all firmware load responsibility into the interface-specific
code and gets rid of the firmware pointer in the generic card structure. It
also removes 3 fairly unecessary callbacks: hw_register_dev, hw_unregister_dev,
and hw_prog_firmware. It also makes the init sequence from interface
probe functions more logical, as there are paired add/remove and start/stop
calls into generic libertas code.
Because the USB driver code uses the same TX URB callback for both firmware
upload (where the generic libertas structure isn't initialized yet) and for
normal operation (where it is), some bits of USB code have to deal with
'priv' being NULL. All USB firmware upload bits have been changed to not
require 'priv' at all, but simply the USB card structure.
