rtlwifi: fill FW version and subversion

This commit fills FW version information of RTL8188EE and RTL8723, so
the btcoex can cooperate with FW correctly.
Also, we can display this version in debugfs.

rtlwifi: rtl8723: Add error handling to no existing firmware

Without firmware, driver wastes time to download and wait for MCU bootup,
and then kernel core dump finally. If request_firmware fails, the value
max_fw_size=0 is set, so we check the value before downloading firmware.

rtlwifi: rtl8192ee: Make driver support 64bits DMA.

1. Both 32-bit and 64-bit use the same TX/RX buffer desc layout
2. Extend set_desc() and get_desc() to set and get 64-bit address
3. Remove directive DMA_IS_64BIT
4. Add module parameter to turn on 64-bit dma

# 89d32c90 19-Jan-2017 Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net>

rtlwifi: Download firmware as bytes rather than as dwords

The firmware is read from disk as a little-endian byte string. The code
that loads the firmware into the device transfers it as 4-byte quantities.
The routines that write multi-byte quantities on BE hardware assume that
the data are in CPU order, and automatically do the conversion to the LE
order required by the device. As a result, the firmware is transmitted
incorrectly. Rather than do multiple byte swaps on the data, the download
routine is revised to transmit bytes rather than dwords. Although the
number of I/O operations is increased, the firmware is not often loaded.

All drivers have the same bug, and use essentially the same code to
download firmware. These routines have been moved into rtlwifi.

Some CamelCase variables have been renamed.

rtlwifi: Remove some redundant code

The symbol DBG_EMERG is no longer used and is removed.

In a number of places, the code has redundant messages. For example, if
the failure for the firmware to run is logged, it is not necessary to
log that the firmware has been started. In addition, extraneous braces are
removed.

# c7532b87 14-Dec-2016 Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net>

rtlwifi: rtl8723-common: Remove all instances of DBG_EMERG

This is a step toward eliminating the RT_TRACE macros. Those calls that
have DBG_EMERG as the level are always logged, and they represent error
conditions, thus they are replaced with pr_err().

rtlwifi: Delete unnecessary checks before the function call "kfree_skb"

The kfree_skb() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the calls is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

rtlwifi: rtl818x: Move drivers into new realtek directory

Now that a new mac80211-based driver for Realtek devices has been submitted,
it is time to reorganize the directories. Rather than having directories
rtlwifi and rtl818x be in drivers/net/wireless/, they will now be in
drivers/net/wireless/realtek/. This change simplifies the directory
structure, but does not result in any configuration changes that are
visable to the user.
