staging: ks7010: remove me from CC list

I lost interest in this driver years ago because I could't keep up with
testing the incoming janitorial patches. So, drop me from CC.

staging: ks7010: add task to TODO file

Driver uses custom Michael MIC implementation. There is already an
implementation within the kernel. There is at least one other driver
already using the kernel implementation
(drivers/net/wireless/intersil/orinoco).

Add task to TODO file.

staging: ks7010: remove dead code

Driver has dead code compiled out using preprocessor directives. TODO
file asks for these not to be removed - ignore this.

Remove dead code. Remove 'do not remove #if 0/1 ...' from TODO file.

staging: ks7010: remove cfg file handling

I verified that all but two settings from the config file can be set up
also via 'iwconfig' or 'iwpriv'. The two missing are ROM_FILE and
PhyInformationTimer. ROM_FILE can be easily dropped. There is only one
known firmware floating on the net, so, the name is fix and we can make
this constant. Frankly, I don't know when PhyInformationTimer needs to
be set to non-zero. But if we need it somewhen, there is already
(currently commented out) code to add this as another private method, so
we could use that. Summa summarum: We can remove the config file
handling and the example config file. The only useful action,
initialization of the configuration struct, is now moved to the sdio
main file.

staging: ks7010: avoid workqueue races

My Spectec SDW823 card oopsed when it was already inserted during boot.
When debugging this, I noticed that the card init was done in a seperate
workqueue which was only activated once in probe. After removing the
workqueue and calling the card init directly from probe, the OOPS went
away. It turned out this is the same OOPS which happened when removing
the card, so this seems possible now. Note: There is still a
not-understood card-removed event during boot, but at least it doesn't
crash anymore and the card will be re-probed right away.

staging: ks7010: add driver from Nanonote extra-repository

See the TODO for details where this driver came from. Only a few minor
changes were made to make the driver suitable for staging:

* updated Kconfig help text and dependencies
* added TODO
* removed two __DATE__ and __TIME__ printouts to allow reproducible builds
* added to staging main Kconfig + Makefile

Tested on a Renesas Salvator-X board with a Spectec SDW-823 card. I
could connect to a WPA-protected network.
