ssb: pick PCMCIA host code support from b43 driver

2015-10-28T19:04:04+00:00

ssb bus can be found on various "host" devices like PCI/PCMCIA/SDIO.
Every ssb bus contains cores AKA devices.
The main idea is to have ssb driver scan/initialize bus and register
ready-to-use cores. This way ssb drivers can operate on a single core
mostly ignoring underlaying details.

For some reason PCMCIA support was split between ssb and b43. We got
PCMCIA host device probing in b43, then bus scanning in ssb and then
wireless core probing back in b43. The truth is it's very unlikely we
will ever see PCMCIA ssb device with no 802.11 core but I still don't
see any advantage of the current architecture.

With proposed change we get the same functionality with a simpler
architecture, less Kconfig symbols, one killed EXPORT and hopefully
cleaner b43. Since b43 supports both: ssb & bcma I prefer to keep ssb
specific code in ssb driver.

This mostly moves code from b43's pcmcia.c to bridge_pcmcia_80211.c. We
already use similar solution with b43_pci_bridge.c. I didn't use "b43"
in name of this new file as in theory any driver can operate on wireless
core.

b43: AC-PHY: prepare place for developing new PHY support

2015-01-29T08:54:43+00:00

There are new (not anymore?) Broadcom 802.11ac wireless cards based on
chipsets like BCM4352 and BCM4360. They use a new PHY type (called
simply AC) that will require new specific code.

b43: update PHY descriptions in Kconfig

2014-07-31T17:45:30+00:00

Add lists of chipsets, so people can enable support for their device
easier (at least after checking lspci).

b43: add config for (en|dis)abling G-PHY support

2014-06-20T18:13:46+00:00

This allows new devices users to save some space.

b43: fix typo in Kconfig (make B43_BUSES_BCMA_AND_SSB the default for real)

b43: make B43_PCMCIA and B43_SDIO depend on B43_SSB

2014-05-19T20:42:15+00:00

These are extra configs specific to the SSB. Lack of this dependency and
CONFIG_B43=y
CONFIG_B43_BUSES_BCMA=y
CONFIG_SSB=m
would result in:
> drivers/built-in.o: In function `b43_sdio_remove':
> sdio.c:(.text+0x14657f): undefined reference to `ssb_bus_unregister'
> drivers/built-in.o: In function `b43_sdio_probe':
> sdio.c:(.text+0x14672f): undefined reference to `ssb_bus_sdiobus_register'

b43: drop SSB dependency

2014-05-13T19:56:36+00:00

This adds choice submenu "Supported bus types" as two simple bool
configs would allow user to compile b43 without any bus support
(prety useless).

b43: adjust code to compile without SSB

2014-05-13T19:56:35+00:00

Users of new (BCMA based) wireless chipsets may not want to enable SSB.
This is hopefully the last code patch for dropping SSB dependency.
