Luciano Coelho d6e19d135d wl1271: workaround to send a disconnect before rejoining
We don't get any indication from the stack when we have disassociated.  In
wl1271, it is important to send a CMD_DISCONNECT before joining again,
because the firmware cleans some things up.  So we check if we're already
joined and disconnect if that's the case.

Juuso Oikarinen c87dec9f18 wl1271: Multicast filtering configuration
Enable multicast filtering. This way by default no multicast frames will
reach the host, and when needed, only required multicast frames can be
passed from the WLAN chipset to the host.

(32 instead of 16) and correct checking and setting of excessive retries
on completion.

Juuso Oikarinen 545f1da8ef wl1271: Implementation for SPI busy word checking
This patch adds implementation for checking for SPI busy words - i.e.
honoring a delay request from the WLAN chipset upon reading
registers/memory.

To optimized the average SPI ready by 32 bits, also configure the number
of busywords to one to disable the "fixed-busy-word" functionality.

Luciano Coelho f5fc0f86b0 wl1271: add wl1271 driver files
This driver supports the wl1271 chipset from Texas Instruments based on the
WiLink(tm) 6.0 mobile platform.  Support for wl1273 should be relatively easy
to add.  This chipset is designed for embedded devices, with good powersaving
capabilities.  The wl1271 chipset is the successor of wl1251 and supports the
802.11b/g/n standards, but currently this driver supports only b/g.

More information about this chipset can be found here:
