Convert prism2_usb firmware loading to load firmware in pre-compiled binary 'ihex' format rather than ascii 'srec' format. This moves the srec processing and sorting of records out of kernel space into a pre-compiler. The driver now just works with the binary image, but still does the 'pda plugging' of that image at runtime, as required by the prism hardware. Some Notes: - The firmware is now expected to be in the same 'ihex' (.fw) format used by other drivers. - The now driver assumes the data records are already sorted into ascending address order. - Plug and crc records are still recognised by special address locations as in original srec processing. - The srec S7 start address record is assumed to have been converted into a data record with another special address location (0xff400000), with the original start address being stored as a 4 byte data word (little endian).

TODO: - checkpatch.pl cleanups - sparse warnings - move to use the in-kernel wireless stack Please send any patches or complaints about this driver to Greg Kroah-Hartman <greg@kroah.com> and don't bother the upstream wireless kernel developers about it, they want nothing to do with it.
