iwlagn: upper layer uses slabs to allocate tx cmds
In a near future, the upper layer won't be aware of the tx queues.
This allows to remove one place where the upper layer needed to
provide the tx queue index to the transport layer.
This also saves around 1.5MB.

the mapping tx_queue -> fifo is really transport related. The upper
layer should be involved in such things.
Note that upon agg_disable, the queue is always mapped to fifo 0, but
this doesn't matter since when the queue will be setup again for a
new BA session, it will be configured to the good fifo anyway.

Remove iwl_transport_register which was a W/A. The bus layer knows what
transport to use. So now, the bus layer gives the upper layer a pointer to the
iwl_trans_ops struct that it wants to use. The upper layer then, allocates the
desired transport layer using iwl_trans_ops->alloc function.
As a result of this, priv->trans, no longer exists, priv holds a pointer to
iwl_shared, which holds a pointer to iwl_trans. This required to change all the
calls to the transport layer from upper layer. While we were at it, trans_X
inlines have been renamed to iwl_trans_X to avoid confusions, which of course
required to rename the functions inside the transport layer because of
conflicts in names. So the static API functions inside the transport layer
implementation have been renamed to iwl_trans_pcie_X.
Until now, the IRQ / Tasklet were initialized in iwl_transport_layer. This is
confusing since the registration doesn't mean to request IRQ, so I added a
handler for that.

iwlagn: introduce struct iwl-shared - known by all layers

the pointers it needs when calling another layer.
Note that the drv_data set to struct device is now a pointer to
struct iwl_shared.
This solves of bug that I introduced in
iwlagn: simplify the bus architecture
Bug description:
sysfs gets the the driver data from struct device. Till the aforementioned
patch, dev_get_drvdata would return iwl_priv. After the patch, dev_get_drvdata
return iwl_bus which is buggy since the sysfs handlers rely on this value, and
sysfs handlers need iwl_priv.
Now, dev_get_drvdata return iwl-shared. Since we have pointers to all the
layers in iwl_shared, every layer will be able to get the pointer it needs:
bus layer will gets iwl_bus from the PCI suspend callbacks, and the sysfs
handlers will get the iwl_priv they need.
In order to keep good encapsulation, we need to avoid to dereference iwl_priv
from a different layer. This is why instead of including iwl-dev.h from
iwl-shared.h, I added a forward declaration to iwl_priv. Moreover we keep type
safety while providing encapsulation.

mac80211: fix race condition between assoc_done and first EAP packet
When associating to an AP, the station might miss the first EAP
packet that the AP sends due to a race condition between the association
success procedure and the rx flow in mac80211.
In such cases, the packet might fall in ieee80211_rx_h_check due to
the fact that the relevant rx->sta wasn't allocated yet.
Allocation of the relevant station info struct before actually
sending the association request and setting it with a new
dummy_sta flag solve this problem.
The station will accept only EAP packets from the AP while it
is in the pre-association/dummy state.
This dummy station entry is not seen by normal sta_info_get()
calls, only by sta_info_get_bss_rx().
The driver is not notified for the first insertion of the
dummy station. The driver is notified only after the association
is complete and the dummy flag is removed from the station entry.

b43/legacy: Remove firmware IDs
This removes the "FWxx" ID strings from the b43 and b43legacy
drivers. They were once used to match a specific driver revision
to a set of firmware files. However, this is hardly useful today.
Additionally, the IDs are not updated and maintained properly, so
they might mislead users.

ath9k_hw: Disable Walsh spatial spreading for 2 chains
The Walsh bit is disabled for regulatory consideration.
FCC limit for walsh enable is lower than that for walsh disable. So
disabling walsh bit will not limit tx power/affect tx power even in
cases where we are not FCC limited (most client cards). If the tx
power is not FCC limited, then enabling/disabling walsh bit will
not affect Avg. EVM/overall performance in any visible manner.

ath9k: Change rate control to use legacy rate as last MRR
In congested network, having all rate reties at MCS rates
is failing to transmit the frame offenly. By the time reaching
the success rate set, the application gets timed out. One such
scenario is that authentication time out during 4-Way handshake.
This patch uses a legacy rate as last retry sequnce for
unaggregated frames or if the first selected rate's PER is ~80%
of max limit. And also observed from the tx status that the frame
was trasmitted successfully by using legacy rates.

b43: warn when forcing PIO mode
We have resolved all the known issues with DMA mode, however some users
(or distros) are still forcing PIO mode by config files. Without
debugging enabled it's not noticable at all. Add the warning for them.
