This reverts commit 2a54eb5e14
("rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: enable MSI interrupts mode").
94010fa0dd ("rtlwifi: add MSI interrupts
mode support") introduced MSI interrupts mode support, which seemed
safe enough with RTL8188EE and RTL8723BE as RealTek's testing results,
but some users reported their RTL8188EE modules could not connect to
any wireless network after the MSI mode was enabled by Ubuntu 14.04.
So, let's fallback to pin-based mode until rtlwifi's MSI support get
good compatibility.

Some HP notebooks using this rtl8188ee hardware module can't get
AP scan results with pin-based interrupts mode, enabling MSI interrupts
mode could fix it.
As RealTek's testing results, RTL8188EE works well with both MSI mode
and pin-based mode fallback.

Casting a pointer to a pointer of the same type is pointless,
so remove these unnecessary casts.
Around these changes:
o Remove unnecessary parentheses
o Use consistent dereference style (change ptr[0] to *ptr)
o Argument alignment

In commit f78bccd79b entitled "rtlwifi:
rtl8192ce: Fix too long disable of IRQs", Olivier Langlois
<olivier@trillion01.com> fixed a problem caused by an extra long disabling
of interrupts. This patch makes the same fix for rtl8188ee.

The addition of a driver for the RTL8821AE requires a new API for the

The rtl*_set_check_bssid functions are mostly the same, but access the
RCR register in different ways. Use the get_hw_reg abstraction layer
(which reads rtlpci->receive_config for PCI devices and mac->rx_conf for
USB).
There is no functional change for cases where receive_config was
accessed directly. For rtl8192ce, there is still no change because
nothing modifies REG_RCR or receive_config. For rtl8192cu, it now also
applies changes to rx_conf from configure_filter, but that can be
considered a bug which is fixed later.

A few places weren't checking that the frame passed to the
function actually has enough data even though the function
clearly documents it must have a payload byte. Make this
safer by changing the function to take an skb and checking
the length inside. The old version is preserved for now as
the rtl* drivers use it and don't have a correct skb.

Just some minor conflicts between the wireless-next changes
and Joe Perches's "extern" removal from function prototypes
in header files.
John W. Linville says:
====================
Regarding the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
"The big work here is from Marcel and Johan. They did a lot of work
in the L2CAP, HCI and MGMT layers. The most important ones are the
addition of a new MGMT command to enable/disable LE advertisement
and the introduction of the HCI user channel to allow applications
to get directly and exclusive access to Bluetooth devices."
As to the ath10k bits, Kalle says:
"Bartosz dropped support for qca98xx hw1.0 hardware from ath10k, it's
just too much to support it. Michal added support for the new firmware
interface. Marek fixed WEP in AP and IBSS mode. Rest of the changes are
minor fixes or cleanups."
And also:
"Major changes are:
* throughput improvements including aligning the RX frames correctly and
optimising HTT layer (Michal)
* remove qca98xx hw1.0 support (Bartosz)
* add support for firmware version 999.999.0.636 (Michal)
* firmware htt statistics support (Kalle)
* fix WEP in AP and IBSS mode (Marek)
* fix a mutex unlock balance in debugfs file (Shafi)
And of course there's a lot of smaller fixes and cleanup."
For the wl12xx bits, Luca says:
"Here are some patches intended for 3.13. Eliad is upstreaming a bunch
of patches that have been pending in the internal tree. Mostly bugfixes
and other small improvements."
Along with that...
Arend and friends bring us a batch of brcmfmac updates, Larry Finger
offers some rtlwifi refactoring, and Sujith sends the usual batch of
ath9k updates. As usual, there are a number of other small updates
from a variety of players as well.

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.
Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.
