The users of the fwil put an error message in the log so there is
no need to do the same in the lower level functions in fwil when
the firmware on the device returns an error. Some errors can be
ignored for the driver to function and this will avoid driver users
to point at the low-level error message as potential bug.

Applying ++ to a bool is equivalent to setting it true, regardless of
its initial value (bools are not uint1_t). Hence the function
wl_get_vif_state_all can only ever return true/false. The only in-tree
caller uses its return value as a boolean. So update its return type,
and since the list traversal and bit testing have no side effects,
just return true immediately. Its return value tells if any vif is in
the specified state, so also rename it to brcmf_get_vif_state_any.

brcmf_chip_ai_coredisable to do so. But brcmf_chip_ai_coredisable is a nop
of the chip is already in reset. This patch modifies brcmf_chip_ai_coredisable
to always set BCMA_IOCTL even if the core is already in reset.
This fixes brcmfmac hanging in firmware loading on my board.

This will allow the low level driver to make decision based
on the vif such as queues etc...
Since the vif might be NULL, we can't add it to the tracing
functions.

The struct cfg80211_connect_params indicate whether the connection
should use management frame protection (mfp). If required set the
MFP_CAPABLE flag in the firmware command. This is supported from
user-space by wpa_supplicant since v2.1.

Conflicts:
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/micrel-ks8851.txt
net/core/netpoll.c
The net/core/netpoll.c conflict is a bug fix in 'net' happening
to code which is completely removed in 'net-next'.
In micrel-ks8851.txt we simply have overlapping changes.
