7919b89c82 libertas: convert libertas driver to use an event/cmdresp queue
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.

f539f2efe9 libertas: convert sleep/wake config direct commands
Confirm sleep event: they come very regularly, eventually several times per
second. Therefore we want to send the config command as fast as possible.
The old code pre-set the command in priv->lbs_ps_confirm_sleep. However, the
byte sequence to be sent to the hardware is the same for all interfaces. So
this patch make this an extern structure, initialized at module load time.

Config wake event: normal conversion to a direct command. However, I don't know
how to trigger a "HOST AWAKE" event from the firmware, so this part is
untested.

c49c3b77c8 libertas: convert GET_LOG to a direct command
Now uses __lbs_cmd() to get the "log" (it's actually more a snapshot of
various counters, not a sequential log). Besides the "mechanical" convertion
the patch add the following logical changes:

* Removes the priv->logmsg variable, it was only used in one place anyway,
  also don't blindly get the counters when associating. Getting the
  counters then the user asks via WEXT for them is good enought.
* don't set wstats.discard.fragment with log.rxfrag, because the latter is
  a counter for successfully received packets, not for fragmented packets.

d9e9778c2a libertas: rename packetfilter to mac_control
The CMD_MAC_CONTROL can be used for other things than just filtering
packets, e.g. to enable and disable WMM. This uses the same term mac_control
for the define, the function and the shadow value in struct lbs_private.

52933d815b libertas: implement SSID scanning for SIOCSIWSCAN
After my bit scan re-writing the SIOCSIWSCAN wext ioctl no longer supported
scanning for a specific SSID. However, wpa_supplicant is a possible user of
this ioctl, so here is code that add's this.

While passing, removed even more of the debugfs-based scanning. You can (and
should) the SIOCSIWSCAN to ask for scans, so there is no need for
proprietary interfaces for scanning. And, besides, the scan result couldn't
be used further, e.g. not for associating.

Rename last_scanned_channel to scan_channel, just so that a

Also documented the variable and moved it to other scan related

b2c57eee66 libertas: allow for PS mode to be disabled when firmware doesn't support it
Otherwise, we go into an endless busy loop trying to enable PS mode when
the command queue is empty, dealing with the error response, and then
trying to enable PS mode again because the command queue is empty.... it
doesn't really save much power.

There seems to be no point in doing it as an ieee80211 device instead of
a normal netdev, and when we override its ->priv and then call
free_ieee80211() it has a distressing tendency to crash horribly.

2abdc0b775 libertas: kill internal tx queue for PS mode
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.

e7deced05f libertas: fix lbs_rtap attribute in sysfs
At least it doesn't oops when you attempt to read or write it now.
Only when you enable it and then later turn it off. And when it's
enabled I don't see how it actually works.

But one fewer oops is good, for now...
