This patch moves all firmware load responsibility into the interface-specific
code and gets rid of the firmware pointer in the generic card structure. It
also removes 3 fairly unecessary callbacks: hw_register_dev, hw_unregister_dev,
and hw_prog_firmware. It also makes the init sequence from interface
probe functions more logical, as there are paired add/remove and start/stop
calls into generic libertas code.
Because the USB driver code uses the same TX URB callback for both firmware
upload (where the generic libertas structure isn't initialized yet) and for
normal operation (where it is), some bits of USB code have to deal with
'priv' being NULL. All USB firmware upload bits have been changed to not
require 'priv' at all, but simply the USB card structure.

Driver support for the monitor mode support that will be available in the next
OLPC 'bleeding edge' Marvell firmware release (most likely, 5.110.16.p2).
To activate monitor mode,
echo mode > /sys/class/net/{ethX,mshX}/device/libertas_rtap
where mode is the hex mask that specifies which frames to sniff (in short, 0x1
for data, 0x2 for all management but beacons, 0x4 for beacons). Any non zero
mode will activate the monitor mode, inhibiting transmission in ethX and mshX
interfaces and routing all the incoming traffic to a new rtapX interface that
will output the packets in 802.11+radiotap headers format.

Remove unused/duplicated fields and consolidate static data rate arrays,
for example the libertas_supported_rates[] and datarates[] arrays in
the bss_descriptor structure, and the libertas_supported_rates field
in the wlan_adapter structure.
Introduce libertas_fw_index_to_data_rate and libertas_data_rate_to_fw_index
functions and use them everywhere firmware requires a rate index rather
than a rate array.
The firmware requires the 4 basic rates to have the MSB set, but most
other stuff doesn't, like WEXT and mesh ioctls. Therefore, only set the MSB
on basic rates when pushing rate arrays to firmware instead of doing a ton
of (rate & 0x7f) everywhere.

The BSS to associate with (in either Infrastructure or IBSS join
operations) is now stored in _one_ place in the association request (the
bss member), not two places as before (pattemptedbss and
curbssparams->bssdescriptor).
Association requests are passed to the necessary association functions
to (a) give them access to the bss member and (b) ensure that
association/join/start setup uses settings from the request, not the
current adapter settings (which may not be valid for the requested
settings).
Because the 'bss' member of the association request is used now, the
command return functions from associate and adhoc join/start need access
to the in-progress association request to update curbssparams when
everything is done. The association worker moves the request from
pending to in-progress for the duration of the association attempt.

Actually, this patch removev wlan_dev_t totally and puts the used variables
of it directly into wlan_private. That reduces one level of indirection and
looks a little bit simpler. It's now "priv->card" and not
"priv->wlan_dev.card" and "priv->dev" instead of "priv->wlan_dev.netdev"
Changed two occurences of "((wlan_private *) dev->priv)->wlan_dev.netdev"
into "dev", because I didn't see the point in doing pointer-ping-pong.
The variables "ioport", "upld_rcv" and "upld_type" where unused. They have
been removed.
