Michael Buesch 6bbc321a96 b43: Add debugfs files for random SHM access
This adds debugfs files for random SHM access.
This is needed in order to implement firmware and driver debugging
scripts in userspace.

Michael Buesch f5eda47f45 b43: Rewrite LO calibration algorithm
This patch distributes the Local Oscillator calibration bursts over time,
so that calibration only happens when it's actually needed.
Currently we periodically perform a recalibration of the whole table.
The table is huge and this takes lots of time. Additionally only small bits
of the table are actually needed at a given time. So instead of maintaining
a huge table with all possible calibration values, we create dynamic calibration
settings that
a) We only calibrate when they are actually needed.
b) Are cached for some time until they expire.
So a recalibration might happen if we need a calibration setting that's not
cached, or if the active calibration setting expires.
Currently the expire timeout is set to 30 seconds. We may raise that in future.

This patch reduces overall memory consumption by nuking the
huge static calibration tables.

This patch has been tested on several 4306, 4311 and 4318 flavours.

Michael Buesch 9db1f6d725 b43: Only select allowed TX and RX antennas
This fixes antenna selection in b43. It adds a sanity check
for the antenna numbers we get from mac80211.

Michael Buesch d987160b71 b43: Fix rxheader channel parsing
This patch fixes the parsing of the RX data header channel field.

The current code parses the header incorrectly and passes a wrong
channel number and frequency for each frame to mac80211.
The FIXMEs added by this patch don't matter for now as the code
where they live won't get executed anyway. They will be fixed later.
