This adds debugfs files for random SHM access.
This is needed in order to implement firmware and driver debugging
scripts in userspace.

This adds debugfs files for reading and writing arbitrary
wireless core registers. This is useful for debugging.

This patch distributes the Local Oscillator calibration bursts over time,
so that calibration only happens when it's actually needed.
Currently we periodically perform a recalibration of the whole table.
The table is huge and this takes lots of time. Additionally only small bits
of the table are actually needed at a given time. So instead of maintaining
a huge table with all possible calibration values, we create dynamic calibration
settings that
a) We only calibrate when they are actually needed.
b) Are cached for some time until they expire.
So a recalibration might happen if we need a calibration setting that's not
cached, or if the active calibration setting expires.
Currently the expire timeout is set to 30 seconds. We may raise that in future.
This patch reduces overall memory consumption by nuking the
huge static calibration tables.
This patch has been tested on several 4306, 4311 and 4318 flavours.

Remove all irqs_disabled() sanity checks, as they are not safe on
a RT-enabled kernel and will trigger bogus warnings.

This fixes a sparse warning about weird locking.
The spinlock is not needed, so simply remove it.
This also adds some sanity checks to the PHY and radio locking
to protect against recursive locking.

Remove b43 PIO support.
DMA works well on all supported devices. There's no reason to use PIO.
Additionally, new devices don't support PIO in hardware anymore.
b43 PIO support is dead and unused code.
After applying this patch please do
git rm drivers/net/wireless/b43/pio.h
git rm drivers/net/wireless/b43/pio.c
to remove the main PIO support code.
