The new code handles the package-type of the chip.

The firmware is read from disk as a little-endian byte string. The code
that loads the firmware into the device transfers it as 4-byte quantities.
The routines that write multi-byte quantities on BE hardware assume that
the data are in CPU order, and automatically do the conversion to the LE
order required by the device. As a result, the firmware is transmitted
incorrectly. Rather than do multiple byte swaps on the data, the download
routine is revised to transmit bytes rather than dwords. Although the
number of I/O operations is increased, the firmware is not often loaded.
All drivers have the same bug, and use essentially the same code to
download firmware. These routines have been moved into rtlwifi.
Some CamelCase variables have been renamed.

These messages are always logged and represent error conditions, thus
we can use pr_err().

All of the rtlwifi family of drivers have a similar routine that acquires
the hardware info from efuse and initializes a number of variables in the
driver's private area. A common routine is created for all drivers to use.

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.
