cd27bc3c3e mwifiex: 11n specific configuration for transmit
Currently device is not able to transmit in 40MHz in spite of
enabling 40MHz support in HTCapInfo IE in assoc req, because
11n specific FW capabilities for transmission are not initialized.
This patch adds code to initilize these capabilities.

a5e5aa6cee mwifiex: restore handling of NULL parameters
Prior to a5ffddb70c "mwifiex: remove casts of void pointers" the
code assumed that the data_buf parameter could be a NULL pointer.
The patch preserved some NULL checks but not consistently, so there
was a potential for NULL dereferences and it changed the behavior.
This patch restores the original behavior.

a5ffddb70c mwifiex: remove casts of void pointers
In some cases local pointers are used to cast void pointers passed to
the function. Those unnecessary local pointers are also removed.

This patch was inspired by Joe Perches' patch
[PATCH net-next 1/2] wireless: Remove casts of void *;
and the comments from Julian Calaby.

600f5d909a mwifiex: cleanup ioctl wait queue and abstraction layer
1) remove mwifiex_alloc_fill_wait_queue() and
mwifiex_request_ioctl()
2) avoid dynamic allocation of wait queue
3) remove unnecessary mwifiex_error_code macros that
were used mainly by the wait queue status code
4) remove some abstraction functions
5) split mwifiex_prepare_cmd() to mwifiex_send_cmd_async()
and mwifiex_send_sync() to handle asynchronous and
synchronous commands respectively
