Now that a new mac80211-based driver for Realtek devices has been submitted,
it is time to reorganize the directories. Rather than having directories
rtlwifi and rtl818x be in drivers/net/wireless/, they will now be in
drivers/net/wireless/realtek/. This change simplifies the directory
structure, but does not result in any configuration changes that are
visable to the user.

In commit 1277fa2a ("rtlwifi: Remove the clear interrupt routine from all
drivers"), the code that cleared all interrupt enable bits before setting them
was removed for all PCI drivers. This fixed an issue that caused TX to be
blocked for 3-5 seconds. On some RTL8821AE units, this change causes soft
lockups to occur on boot. For that reason, the portion of the earlier commit
that applied to rtl8821ae is reverted. Kernels 4.1 and newer are affected.

See http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=144373370103285&w=2 and
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=944978 for two cases where
this regression affected user systems. Note that this bug does not appear on
any of the developer's setups. For those users whose systems are affected
by the TX blockage, but do not lock up on boot, a module parameter is added
to disable the interrupt clear

In routine _rtl8821ae_set_media_status(), an incorrect mask results in a test
for AP status to always be false. Similar bugs were fixed in rtl8192cu and
rtl8192de, but this instance was missed at that time.

Several of these drivers have there TX randomly blocked for 3~5 seconds while
measuring tx throughput (iperf). The root couse happens in rtl_pci_flush().
The function uses a while-loop to wait for TX queue length to decrease to 0.
The TX queue length counts the number of packets that are queued in the driver.
The driver relys on the TX OK interrupt to return skb and reduce TX queue length.

The interrupt subroutine disables interupts, reads the interrupt registers, and
then clears the registers in the beginning of _rtl_pci_interrupt(). After all
interupts process are finished, the driver invokes enable_interrupt() to enable
interupts. This behavior is normal for an interrupt subroutine.

But enable_interrupt() invokes clear_interrupt() again. This unexpected interrupt
clearing may cleari me fresh TX OK interrupts. These missing interrupts cause TX
queue length to never reduce to 0i, which causes rtl_pci_flush() to be stuck in
unterminated while-loop.

This patch removes clear_interrupt() in enable_interrupt() to avoid this behavior.

The driver was not setting a channel plan. Now it gets it from EEPROM.

This patch is needed to fix the regression reported in Bug #88811

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.

This driver was entered into staging a few cycles ago because there was
not time to integrate the Realtek version into the support routines in
the kernel. Now that there is an effort to converg the code base from Linux
and the Realtek repo, it is time to move this driver. In addition, all the
updates included in the 06/28/2014 version of the Realtek drivers are
included here.

With this change, it will be necessary to delete the staging driver. That
will be handled in a separate patch. As it impacts the staging tree, such a
patch is sent to a different destination.
