Some distros ship bcm43xx with debugging printout disabled. For those
BCM43xx devices with radio on/off switches, this makes it impossible
to know if the radio is on or off. This patch changes a pair of debug
printk's into ordinary printk's. It also changes the message that
prints when the radio is initialized to the off state as the old message
seems to confuse users.

Fix a duplicated leftshift in bcm43xx_radio_set_tx_iq. data_high values are
already leftshifted. Thanks to Michael Buesch for spotting this.

There are several places where the PHY version and revision were interchanged.
These are changed in the specifications on 2/13/07 and now use "analog" instead
instead of "version" to help reduce confusion.

During testing of bcm43xx interference mitigation, two problems were
discovered:
(1) When the MANUALWLAN mode was set, routines _stack_save and _stack_restore
generated assertions that were traced to saving ILT registers with addresses
> 0xFFF. This problem was fixed by adding one bit to the field used for
the offset, and subtracting one bit from the space used for the id.
(2) In MANUALWLAN mode, the IRQ XMIT errors are generated. The cause of these
errors has not yet been located. Any suggestions on debugging this problem
would be greatly appreciated.

The specifications for the bcm43xx driver have been modified. This
patch incorporates these changes in the code, which results in the
BCM4311 and BCM4312 working. The name of one of the PHY parameters,
previously known as "version", has been changed to "analog", short for
"analog core version" .

The current bcm43xx driver ignores any wireless-enable switches on mini-PCI
and mini-PCI-E cards. This patch implements a new routine to interrogate the
radio hardware enabled bit in the interface, logs the initial state and any
changes in the switch (if debugging enabled), activates the LED to show the
state, and changes the periodic work handler to provide 1 second response
to switch changes and to account for changes in the periodic work specs.

The current version of bcm43xx-softmac uses local routines to check
if a channel is valid. As noted in the comments, these routines do
not take any regulatory information into account. This patch converts
the code to use the equivalent routine in ieee80211, which is being
converted to know about regulatory information.
