7c24d086ef rtlwifi: rtl8723ae: rtl8723be: rtl8723com: Fix firmware header endian issues
The drivers are converted to use the common firmware header struct.
Because the old header definition failed to indicate that the multi-byte
entries should be little endian, several problems were thus exposed.
These are fixed.

741e3b9902 rtlwifi: rtl8723be: Add module parameter for MSI interrupts
The driver code allows for the disabling of MSI interrupts; however the
module_parm line was missed and the option fails to show with modinfo.

5c99f04fec rtlwifi: rtl8723be: Update driver to match Realtek release of 06/28/14
This patch updates the driver to match the latest Realtek release, and
it is an important step in getting the internal code source at Realtek to match
the code in the kernel. The primary reason for this is to make it easier for
Realtek to maintain the kernel source without requiring an intermediate like me.

In this process of merging the two source repositories, there are a lot
of changes in both, and this commit is rather large.

9baa3c34ac PCI: Remove DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE macro use
We should prefer `struct pci_device_id` over `DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE` to
meet kernel coding style guidelines.  This issue was reported by checkpatch.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as
follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/):

// <smpl>

@@
identifier i;
declarer name DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE;
initializer z;
@@

- DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE(i)
+ const struct pci_device_id i[]
= z;

// </smpl>

The msi module parameter offers an option to enable or disable MSI
interrupts mode, for debugging and workaround(in case) convenience.

329d6e299f rtlwifi: rtl8723be: disable MSI interrupts mode
94010fa0dd ("rtlwifi: add MSI interrupts
mode support") introduced MSI interrupts mode support, which seemed
safe enough with RTL8188EE and RTL8723BE as RealTek's testing results,
but some users reported their RTL8188EE modules could not connect to
any wireless network after the MSI mode was enabled by Ubuntu 14.04.

So, let's fallback to pin-based mode until rtlwifi's MSI support get
good compatibility.

1bae2ae364 rtlwifi: rtl8723be: rtl8723com: Remove unused allow_all_destaddr functions
In a previous commit, Peter Wu removed this call as configure_filter takes care
of setting/clearing RCR_AAP. This patch makes the same change for rtl8723be.

In addition, a change is made in the logging level for one debug printout.
