Since uCode is responsible for doing DC calibration, there's no need
to let init uCode to do initial DC calibration then send results
back to driver, then driver sends the results to runtime uCode.
Driver can simply tell runtime uCode to do DC calibration.
Actually, this patch does not disable DC calib for init uCode. It just
prevent driver from saving and sending the DC calib results (from init
ucode) to runtime uCode. The driver still uses 0xffffffff in
CALIB_CFG_CMD for init ucode.

The function has an unsigned return type, but returns a negative constant
to indicate an error condition. Another error condition in the same

In uCode, BT state machine need to receive open envlope
command before perform calibration; followed by close envlope
command to move to next stage.
Since Linux has two separated uCode, one for init and the second
one for runtime; we use open envlope commands for init uCode to
indicate we are ready to perform calibration operation.
But for runtime uCode, we are not doing any init calibration,
so we issue open/close envlope commands to force uCode move to
"BT COEX ON" state.
