d25aabb0a1 iwlwifi: unify iwlagn and 3945 power save management
This patch unifies 3945 and iwlagn power save management
This patch also better separates system state from user setting.
System state shall be removed later as this shall be shifted to user space

8ccde88a87 iwl3945: Getting rid of the *39_rxon iwl_priv fields
The iwl_rxon_cmd is really just a iwl3945_rxon_cmd structure extension.
So, we can use the *_rxon fields from iwl_priv instead of the 3945 specific
ones (*39_rxon). We have to then be careful when submitting REPLY_RXON host
commands, since the command length as to be set according to the HW. As
another precaution the reserved4 and reserved5 fields are cleared before being
sent to the 3945.

With the *39_rxon removal, a lot of duplicated code can be removed from the
3945 code base.

060210f938 b43: Dynamically control log verbosity
Dynamically control the log verbosity with a module parameter.
This enables us to dynamically enable debugging messages (or disable
info, warn, error messages) via module parameter or /sys/module/b43/parameters/verbose.

This increases the module size by about 3k. But in practice it reduces the
module size for the user, because some distributions ship the b43 module
with CONFIG_B43_DEBUG set, which increases the module by about 15k.

So with this patch applied, distributions should really _disable_ CONFIG_B43_DEBUG.
There is no reason to keep it in a production-release kernel.
So we have a net reduction in size by about 12k.

This patch also adds a printk of the wireless core revision, so people
don't have to enable SSB debugging to get the wireless core revision.

59606ffa91 iwlwifi: make iwl_tx_queue->tfds void*
Instead of having both tfds and tfds39, we can just have a void *tfds.
It makes the tx_queue structure nicer, and the code cleaner. It also helps
with further TX queues management code merging.

77fecfb88f iwl3945: Use iwlcore scan code
A lot of the scanning related code is duplicated between 3945 and agn. Let's
use the iwlcore one and get rid of the 3945.

75bcfae97d iwl3945: Define send_tx_power
We can define this iwl_lib ops for 3945, as this would help us cleaning the
scanning code.

4c4df78f5e iwlwifi: add test to determine if interface in monitor mode
mac80211 sets driver in monitor mode through configuring the
RX filters. We cannot trust priv->iw_mode to be accurate
regarding monitor mode as iw_mode is only set in add_interface,
which is not called by mac80211 when in monitor mode.

1a9f509368 b43: Automatically probe for opensource firmware
First probe for proprietary firmware and then probe for opensource firmware.
This way around it's a win-win situation.
1) If proprietary fw is available, it will work.
2) If opensource firmware is available, but no proprietary (Distros can only ship open fw)
   it might work.
3) If both open and proprietary are available, it will work, because it selects
   the proprietary. We currently don't prefer the open fw in this case, because it doesn't
   work on all devices. It would introduce a regression otherwise.

The remaining FIXMEs in this patch are harmless, because they only matter on multiband
devices, which are not implemented yet anyway.

2f47690ed4 rtl8187: Fix driver to return TX retry info for RTL8187L
Current code for the RTL8187 is not returning valid retry information, thus the
rate-setting mechanism is not functioning. As a further complication, this info
is only obtained by reading a register, which cannot be read while in interrupt
context.

This patch implements the TX status return to mac80211 through the use of a
work queue.

One additional problem is that the driver currently enables the rate fallback
mechanism of the device, which conflicts with the mac80211 rate-setting
algorithm. This version of the patch disables rate fallback.
