5d07b668f2 wl1271: Checking of rx descriptor status fixed
Fixed checking of status of the received packet. On wl1251 status is in the
flags field of the descriptor, on wl1271 there is a separate status field.

7462141787 wl1271: Remove outdated SPI functions
With the change to the new firmware, there was a change to firmware memory
partitioning. Along with that change, the translation of all partitions was
unified, and separate functions for reg and mem access became unnecessary.

Cleanup the unnecessary functions.

732a1ad93e wl1271: Remove RX workaround
Remove RX workaround which is not needed with newer firmware revisions. This
will reduce one SPI register transaction per RX packet.

9d565973de wl1271: remove unecessary qual parameter from rx status
The qual element in ieee80211_rx_status is not used anymore, so we don't need
to set it in the wl1271_rx_status() function.  This saves a bit of time in
the RX path.

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:
