This allows saving a little of space when not using ssb on Broadcom SoC.

This cleans main.c a bit and will allow us to compile SoC related code
conditionally in the future.

<title>ssb: pick PCMCIA host code support from b43 driver</title>

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 &amp; 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.

Register a GPIO driver to access the GPIOs provided by the chip.
The GPIOs of the SoC should always start at 0 and the other GPIOs could
start at a random position. There is just one SoC in a system and when
they start at 0 the number is predictable.

This adds the Gigabit Ethernet driver for the SSB

the Tigon3 driver. So the real work is done by tg3.

The bridge code was unnecessary enabled by the b44
driver, but it prevents the bcm43xx driver from
being loaded, as the bridge claims the same pci ids.

Now we enable the birdge only if the b43{legacy}
drivers are selected.
