920872e083 net: rtlwifi: Replace in_interrupt() for context detection
rtl_lps_enter() and rtl_lps_leave() are using in_interrupt() to detect
whether it is safe to acquire a mutex or if it is required to defer to a
workqueue.

The usage of in_interrupt() in drivers is phased out and Linus clearly
requested that code which changes behaviour depending on context should
either be seperated or the context be conveyed in an argument passed by the
caller, which usually knows the context.

in_interrupt() also is only partially correct because it fails to chose the
correct code path when just preemption or interrupts are disabled.

Add an argument 'may_block' to both functions and adjust the callers to
pass the context information.

The following call chains were analyzed to be safe to block:

    rtl_watchdog_wq_callback()
      rlf_lps_leave/enter()

    rtl_op_suspend()
      rtl_lps_leave()

    rtl_op_bss_info_changed()
      rtl_lps_leave()

    rtl_op_sw_scan_start()
      rtl_lps_leave()

The following call chains were analyzed to be unsafe to block:

    _rtl_pci_interrupt()
      _rtl_pci_rx_interrupt()
	  rtl_lps_leave()

    _rtl_pci_interrupt()
      _rtl_pci_rx_interrupt()
        rtl_is_special_data()
	  rtl_lps_leave()

    _rtl_pci_interrupt()
      _rtl_pci_rx_interrupt()
        rtl_is_special_data()
	  setup_special_tx()
	    rtl_lps_leave()

    _rtl_pci_interrupt()
      _rtl_pci_tx_isr
        rtl_lps_leave()

      halbtc_leave_lps()
        rtl_lps_leave()

This leaves four callers of rtl_lps_enter/leave() where the analyzis
stopped dead in the maze of several nested pointer based callchains and
lack of rtlwifi hardware to debug this via tracing:

     halbtc_leave_lps(), halbtc_enter_lps(), halbtc_normal_lps(),
     halbtc_pre_normal_lps()

These four have been cautionally marked to be unable to block which is the
safe option, but the rtwifi wizards should be able to clarify that.

a3b7b227f1 net: rtlwifi: Remove void* casts related to delayed work
INIT_DELAYED_WORK() takes two arguments: A pointer to the delayed work and
a function reference for the callback.

The rtl code casts all function references to (void *) because the
callbacks in use are not matching the required function signature. That's
error prone and bad pratice.

Some of the callback functions are also global, but only used in a single
file.

Clean the mess up by:

  - Adding the proper arguments to the callback functions and using them in
    the container_of() constructs correctly which removes the hideous
    container_of_dwork_rtl() macro as well.

  - Removing the type cast at the initializers

  - Making the unnecessary global functions static

30462b514f rtlwifi: Remove unused parameter from rtl_ps_set_rf_state()
Commit 4b9d8d67b4 ("rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: Remove unused parameter") reworked
this routine. Those changes were later reverted by commit d3feae41a3
("rtlwifi: Update power-save routines for 062814 driver").

There were two changes in commit 4b9d8d67b4. The first of these removed
a parameter from rtl_ps_set_rf_state() that was always false. This is the
change that is restored in the current patch. A second change that reworked
the locking is still being analyzed.

In addition to removing the unused parameter, there is no need for
rtl_ps_set_rf_state() to be exported.

f1d2b4d338 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.
