2b60100bf0 wl1271: Add structure for firmware configuration values
In order to make the firmware configuration more manageable, collect
hardcoded configuration values into one data structure, and set default values
there.

Add the SoftGemini BT/WLAN coex paramters into the config structure.

ac78403e14 wl1271: add workaround to avoid distortion due to excessive tx power
We still don't have proper calibration for our devices, so we are using way
too much power for TX, which causes a lot of distortion.  This hack hardcodes
the txpower to 7dBm.

f5fc0f86b0 wl1271: add wl1271 driver files
This driver supports the wl1271 chipset from Texas Instruments based on the
WiLink(tm) 6.0 mobile platform.  Support for wl1273 should be relatively easy
to add.  This chipset is designed for embedded devices, with good powersaving
capabilities.  The wl1271 chipset is the successor of wl1251 and supports the
802.11b/g/n standards, but currently this driver supports only b/g.

More information about this chipset can be found here:
