73fb270592 rtlwifi: Fix size of wireless mode variable
Smatch reports the following warning:

  CHECK   drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/rc.c
drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/rc.c:144 _rtl_rc_rate_set_series() warn: impossible condition '(wireless_mode == 256) => (0-255 == 256)'

This warning arises because commit acc6907b87a9 ("rtlwifi: Fix warning
from ieee80211_get_tx_rates() when using 5G") now checks the wireless
mode for WIRELESS_MODE_AC_ONLY (BIT(8)) in _rtl_rc_rate_set_series().
As a result, all quantities used to store the wireless mode must be u16.

This patch also reorders struct rtl_sta_info to save a little space.

ce2542435a rtlwifi: pass struct rtl_stats by reference as it is more efficient
passing rtl_stats by value is inefficient; the structure is over 300
bytes in size and generally just one field (packet_report_type)
is being accessed, so the pass by value is a relatively large overhead.
This change just affects just the rx_command_packet calls.

0a44b22009 rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Convert driver to use common 5G channel table
There are several copies of the 5G channel tables in this driver. These
are removed so that the tables in the core will be used. This change
also removes a useless message of "Channel 163 in Group not found".

The number of possible 5G channels was reduced from 54 to a better
value of 49 during the conversion.

9696a159c3 rtlwifi: Prepare for reworking 5G channels
There are 3 drivers in this family that have 5G radios. Each of them
defines local copies of the available channels. This patch adds the
two arrays to the core driver.

Kalle Valo says:

====================
here's a bigger pull request for 4.4. The diffstat looks scary as we
created a new directory realtek for all realtek drivers. In the future
I'm planning to create similar directories for all vendors, currently we
just have ath, mediatek and realtek. This change has been in linux-next
for a couple of weeks so it should be safe, but of course you never
know.

There's also a new driver rtl8xxxu for few realtek USB devices. This
just made it to the last linux-next build.

Otherwise there's nothing really special, more info below. If time
permits, and it's ok for you, I'm hoping to send you a one more pull
request this week.

f1d2b4d338 rtlwifi: rtl818x: Move drivers into new realtek directory
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.
