Eytan Lifshitz b7998c8b44 iwlwifi: Change define and struct names in iwl-eeprom-parse.h
Since we will have several forms of NVM (EEPROM, OTP, etc.)
and they will have different layouts, make the parsed data
more generic. This allows functional code to be independent
of a specific layout.

Also change some variables and function names from having
"eeprom" to "nvm" in their name.

Johannes Berg 50e2a30cf6 iwlwifi: disable greenfield transmissions as a workaround
There's a bug that causes the rate scaling to get stuck
when it has to use single-stream rates with a peer that
can do GF and SGI; the two are incompatible so we can't
use them together, but that causes the algorithm to not
work at all, it always rejects updates.

Disable greenfield for now to prevent that problem.

Johannes Berg 26a7ca9a71 iwlwifi: refactor EEPROM reading/parsing
The EEPROM reading/parsing code is all mixed in
the driver today, and the EEPROM is parsed only
when we access data from it. This is problematic
because the NVM needs to be parsed and that is
independent of reading it. Also, the NVM format
for new devices will be different and probably
require a new parser.

Therefore refactor the reading and parsing and
create two independent components. Reading the
EEPROM requires direct hardware accesses and
therefore access to the transport, but parsing
is independent and can be done on an NVM blob.

Johannes Berg 1023fdc485 iwlwifi: move DVM code into subdirectory
Since we're working on another mode/driver
inside iwlwifi, move the current one into a
subdirectory to more cleanly separate the
code. While at it, rename all the files.
