Instead of allocating one big chunk of DMA-coherent
memory for the firmware and keeping it around, only
vmalloc() the firmware and copy it into a single
page of DMA-coherent memory for the upload.
The advantage is that we don't need DMA memory for
the firmware image that is stored while the driver
is operating, we only need it while uploading.
This will make it easier for the driver to work if
the system has fragmented memory.

Change iwl_fw struct to hold an array of fw_img instead of
three separated instances.
Change fw_img to hold an array of fw_desc instead of two
separate descriptors for instructions and data.
Change load_given_ucode, load_section, verification functions
etc. to support this structure.

New TLVs for ucode sections that are not known as
instruction or data.
New TLVs for phy-configuration and default calibrations.
Add default calib and phy config fields to iwl_fw.

Changed iwl_firmware_pieces structure to support an array of
separate images, and an array of sections for each image.
In fw_sec and fw_desc structures, added a field for
offset from the HW address, to support 16.0 uCode that
provides an offset instead of any other data about the section.
This field is filled with default values when parsing instruction
or data section.

Through the driver, struct iwl_fw will
store the firmware. Split this out into
a separate file, iwl-fw.h, and make all
other code use it. To do this, also move
the log pointers into it, and remove the
knowledge of "nic" from everything.
Now the op_mode has a fw pointer, and
(unfortunately) for now the shared data
also needs to keep one for the transport
to access dump the error log -- I think
that will move later.
Since I wanted to constify the firmware
pointers, some more changes were needed.
