This patch completely rewrites the rfkill core to address
the following deficiencies:
* all rfkill drivers need to implement polling where necessary
rather than having one central implementation
* updating the rfkill state cannot be done from arbitrary
contexts, forcing drivers to use schedule_work and requiring
lots of code
* rfkill drivers need to keep track of soft/hard blocked
internally -- the core should do this
* the rfkill API has many unexpected quirks, for example being
asymmetric wrt. alloc/free and register/unregister
* rfkill can call back into a driver from within a function the
driver called -- this is prone to deadlocks and generally
should be avoided
* rfkill-input pointlessly is a separate module
* drivers need to #ifdef rfkill functions (unless they want to
depend on or select RFKILL) -- rfkill should provide inlines
that do nothing if it isn't compiled in
* the rfkill structure is not opaque -- drivers need to initialise
it correctly (lots of sanity checking code required) -- instead
force drivers to pass the right variables to rfkill_alloc()
* the documentation is hard to read because it always assumes the
reader is completely clueless and contains way TOO MANY CAPS
* the rfkill code needlessly uses a lot of locks and atomic
operations in locked sections
* fix LED trigger to actually change the LED when the radio state
changes -- this wasn't done before

iwmc3200wifi: trim down calibration firmware name
The patch trims down iwmc3200wifi calibration firmware name from
iwmc3200wifi-lmac-calib-sdio.bin to iwmc3200wifi-calib-sdio.bin. We can
shorten the firmware name because all calibration is done by LMAC.

We were sending the fragmentation threshold value to the wrong table,
causing an LMAC assert when setting it from wext.

The patch makes iwmc3200wifi select CFG80211 instead of LIB80211.
This fixed module link error reported by Randy Dunlap
<randy.dunlap@oracle.com> when compiling iwmc3200wifi without
cfg80211 selected. WIRELESS_EXT is also selected by iwmc3200wifi.

This driver supports Intel's full MAC wireless multicomm 802.11 hardware.
Although the hardware is a 802.11agn device, we currently only support
802.11ag, in managed and ad-hoc mode (no AP mode for now).
