This patch uses a higher precision timer to synchronize with the firmware
clock. Improved precision is needed as on some platforms a jiffy may be up to
tens of milliseconds, and the required precision is closer to TU's.

This patch implements looped IRQ handling. In essence, if a new interrupt is
asserted by the FW while the host is processing the previous one, the host
will directly proceed processing the new IRQ without leaving the handling
function.

We were not handling endianess correctly. The wl1271 chip runs on
little-endian values. This patch makes sure that all the communication with
the wl1271 firmware is done in little-endian by using cpu_to_le* and
le*_to_cpu where appropriate.
Also, all the struct definitions for data exchanged with the firmware has
been changed to use __le16/32 types instead of u16/32.
This fixes a few sparse warnings, such as these:
