This struct will hold pointers to all the layers, so that every layer will find
the pointers it needs when calling another layer.
Note that the drv_data set to struct device is now a pointer to
struct iwl_shared.
This solves of bug that I introduced in
iwlagn: simplify the bus architecture
Bug description:
sysfs gets the the driver data from struct device. Till the aforementioned
patch, dev_get_drvdata would return iwl_priv. After the patch, dev_get_drvdata
return iwl_bus which is buggy since the sysfs handlers rely on this value, and
sysfs handlers need iwl_priv.
Now, dev_get_drvdata return iwl-shared. Since we have pointers to all the
layers in iwl_shared, every layer will be able to get the pointer it needs:
bus layer will gets iwl_bus from the PCI suspend callbacks, and the sysfs
handlers will get the iwl_priv they need.
In order to keep good encapsulation, we need to avoid to dereference iwl_priv
from a different layer. This is why instead of including iwl-dev.h from
iwl-shared.h, I added a forward declaration to iwl_priv. Moreover we keep type
safety while providing encapsulation.
