Create cnss_genl driver to create a netlink family cld80211
and make it available to cld driver and applications when
they query for it.
This driver creates multicast groups to facilitate communication
from cld driver to userspace and allows cld driver to register
for different commands from user space.
Resolve compilation errors and tweak netlink family creation

Separate the WLAN CNSS platform driver according to
the bus interface PCIe and SDIO. Add separate Kernel
Config file for the WLAN CNSS platform Driver and its
necessary module which has support for the CNSS
connectivity Subsystem.
Add Kernel Config flag to refactoring the CNSS platform Driver:
CONFIG_CNSS Kernel Config add support to CNSS Core
driver compilation and export Generic GPL wrappers.
CONFIG_CNSS_SDIO Kernel Config add support to CNSS
Platform Driver compilation for SDIO based WiFi Devices
and export platform driver API's based on the SDIO bus.
CONFIG_CNSS_PCI Kernel Config add support to CNSS
Platform Driver compilation for PCIe based WiFi Devices
and export platform driver API's based on the PCIe bus.

MAC hardware on QCA6174 has a bug that is causing an invalid pointer
fetch based on the data that is read from 0 to 4K. And when the
data read from 0 to 4K address range is translating to a high
order address, PCIe RC would return a read abort error, and that
results in an internal AXI error. So allocate/reserve this memory
and fill it with zero's (populate the redirected 0 to 4K to a memory
address that is essentially populated with data that translates
to an address for which PCIe RC honored the read without any errors).
Note that the read value is not used by MAC for any further
operations.

Refactor wext to
* split out iwpriv handling
* split out iwspy handling
* split out procfs support
* allow cfg80211 to have wireless extensions compat code
w/o CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT
After this, drivers need to
- select WIRELESS_EXT - for wext support
- select WEXT_PRIV - for iwpriv support
- select WEXT_SPY - for iwspy support
except cfg80211 -- which gets new hooks in wext-core.c
and can then get wext handlers without CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT.
Wireless extensions procfs support is auto-selected
based on PROC_FS and anything that requires the wext core
(i.e. WIRELESS_EXT or CFG80211_WEXT).

to remove this is no one really is testing prism54 anymore,
and while it works p54pci provides support for the same hardware.
It should be noted I have been told some FullMAC devices may not
have worked with the SoftMAC driver but to date we have yet to
