Realtek released new drivers on 06/28/2014. These changes implement all their
changes into the kernel version of the driver. In addition, these modifications
are part of the process of unifying the Realtek and kernel code bases.

Not only does this patch update the driver to match the latest Realtek release,
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.

Driver rtlwifi fails on a big-endian host.
These changes have been tested on a Mac PowerBook G4, which has
a PPC processor.
Although this patch touches some of the code that will affect endian
issues on PCI hardware through drivers rtl8192ce, rtl8192se, and
rtl8192de, these have not been tested due to lack of suitable hardware.

Driver rtl8192cu writes the firmware with 32-bit asynchronous writes. This
design is OK for USB 2.0 adapters, but the current implementation of
xhcu-hcd has a limited ring size, which is exceeded. By converting to
synchronous block writes, this error is avoided.

The USB driver does not retry reads - allow 10 tries.

As noted by Stephan Rothwell, an allyesconfig build fails since rtl8192cu
was merged with failures such as:
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192cu/built-in.o: In function `rtl92c_phy_sw_chnl':
(.opd+0xf30): multiple definition of `rtl92c_phy_sw_chnl'
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192ce/built-in.o:(.opd+0xb70): first defined here
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192cu/built-in.o: In function `rtl92c_fill_h2c_cmd':
(.opd+0x288): multiple definition of `rtl92c_fill_h2c_cmd'
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192ce/built-in.o:(.opd+0x288): first defined here
These are caused because the code shared between rtl8192ce and rtl8192cu
is included in both drivers. This has been fixed by creating a new modue that
contains the shared code.
