830fb67b8e wl1271: Fix supported rate management
Previously, only basic rates were used for data transmission - resulting in
reduced transfer rates. This patch takes enables the firmware to take advantage
of the full set of data rates supported by the AP.

01ac17ecb6 wl1271: Add pre-power-on sleep
This patch adds a short delay before powering on the wl1271. Normally, it is
not needed, but if the wl1271 has been powered off shortly before, for reliable
firmware-booting this small stabilization delay is required.

98b2a68473 wl1271: add gpio_power file in debugfs to power the chip on and off
Some debugging tools require the chip to be powered on before they can work.
With these tools, we shouldn't upload the firmware nor boot the firmware
ourselves, so this debufs file is provided.  It always contains the gpio
power setting (0 = off, 1 = on).  To change the power setting, just write 0
or 1 to the file.

d0f63b2021 wl1271: fix endianess issues
We were not handling endianess correctly.  The wl1271 chip runs on
little-endian values.  This patch makes sure that all the communication with
the wl1271 firmware is done in little-endian by using cpu_to_le* and
le*_to_cpu where appropriate.

Also, all the struct definitions for data exchanged with the firmware has
been changed to use __le16/32 types instead of u16/32.

This fixes a few sparse warnings, such as these:
