The patch fixes the misuse of DMA channel number by Tx queue number in
iwl_tx_ctx_stop().
The problem was originally reported by Wu Fengguang who complains
iwlagn driver takes too long time when issuing `ifconfig wlan0 down`.
The patch now decreases the interface bring down time from 2 seconds
to 0.8 second.

This patch:
1. fixes command DMA unmapping, this might be visible only
on platforms where DMA unmapping is no noop such as PPC64 (not tested)
2. attaches correctly high memory part of the host command buffer
3. changes structure of TFD TB
instead of describing transmit buffer (TB) tuple it describes single
TB and makes code more readable on price of one unaligned access
4. eliminates using of IWL_GET/SET_BITs for TFD handling
5. renames TFD structures to mach the HW spec
6. reduces iwl_tx_info size by reserving first TB to the host command
This patch should not have any visible effect on x86 32

This makes injection work on iwl4965 and iwl5000. Tested on both cards.
Note: To inject management frames with encryption, HW crypto support
must be disabled using the "swcrypto=1" modparam (or "swcrypto50=1"
for iwl5000). Otherwise most management frames won't be transmitted.

This patch "iwlwifi: do not use GFP_DMA in iwl_tx_queue_init" removes
GFP_DMA from allocation tx command buffers. GFP_DMA allows allocation
only for memory under 16M which causes allocation problems
suspend/resume flows.
Using kmalloc is temporal solution and some consistent/coherent
allocation schema will be more correct. Since iwlwifi hardware
supports 64bit address this solution should work on x86 (32 and
64bit) for now.

A few general categories:
1) ieee80211_has_* tests if particular fctl bits are set, the helpers are de
in the same order as the fctl defines:
A combined _has_a4 was also added to test when both FROMDS and TODS are set.
2) ieee80211_is_* is meant to test whether the frame control is of a certain
ftype - data, mgmt, ctl, and two special helpers _is_data_qos, _is_data_pres
which also test a subset of the stype space.
When testing for a particular stype applicable only to one ftype, functions
like ieee80211_is_ack have been added. Note that the ftype is also being
checked in these helpers. They have been added for all mgmt and ctl stypes
in the same order as the STYPE defines.
3) ieee80211_get_* is meant to take a struct ieee80211_hdr * and returns a
pointer to somewhere in the struct, see get_SA, get_DA, get_qos_ctl.
The intel wireless drivers had helpers that used this namespace, convert the
all to use the new helpers and remove the byteshifting as they were defined
in cpu-order rather than little-endian.
