This adds support for verbose runtime statistics.
It defaults to off and must be enabled in debugfs, if desired.
The first measurement may be incorrect, because statistics are not cleared
after they got enabled through debugfs.

Use a threaded IRQ handler to allow locking the mutex and
sleeping while executing an interrupt.
This removes usage of the irq_lock spinlock, but introduces
a new hardirq_lock, which is _only_ used for the PCI/SSB lowlevel
hard-irq handler. Sleeping busses (SDIO) will use mutex instead.

<title>b43: Dynamically control log verbosity</title>

Dynamically control the log verbosity with a module parameter.
This enables us to dynamically enable debugging messages (or disable
info, warn, error messages) via module parameter or /sys/module/b43/parameters/verbose.

This increases the module size by about 3k. But in practice it reduces the
module size for the user, because some distributions ship the b43 module
with CONFIG_B43_DEBUG set, which increases the module by about 15k.

So with this patch applied, distributions should really _disable_ CONFIG_B43_DEBUG.
There is no reason to keep it in a production-release kernel.
So we have a net reduction in size by about 12k.

This patch also adds a printk of the wireless core revision, so people
don't have to enable SSB debugging to get the wireless core revision.

<title>b43: Accessing the TSF via mac80211</title>

This allows the mac80211 high level code to access the TSF. This is e.g. needed for BSSID merges in the IBSS mode.

The second version adds locking and removes the now unnecessary debugfs entries.

Thanks to Michael Buesch! :)

This adds an option to dump all crypto related memory to
the kernel log.
Obviously, it should not be enabled on productive systems. ;)

This adds a firmware debugging knob to debugfs.
With this knob it's possible to enable advanced runtime firmware
checks.
For now it only implements one sanity check for the mac-suspend.
In future there'll probably be more.
If CONFIG_B43_DEBUG is disabled, these checks will collapse to nothing.

We don't need these two dump-files anymore, as we can easily do this
in userspace now.
Use b43-fwdump from the b43-tools repository to dump microcode registers.
Use "b43-fwdump -s" to dump SHM (or use -S to do a binary dump)
