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.

Kalle Valo says:
====================
Major changes:
ath10k:
* add support for qca99x0 family of devices
* improve performance of tx_lock
* add support for raw mode (802.11 frame format) and software crypto
engine enabled via a module parameter
ath9k:
* add fast-xmit support
wil6210:
* implement TSO support
* support bootloader v1 and onwards
iwlwifi:
* Deprecate -10.ucode
* Clean ups towards multiple Rx queues
* Add support for longer CMD IDs. This will be required by new
firmwares since we are getting close to the u8 limit.
* bugfixes for the D0i3 power state
* Add basic support for FTM
* polish the Miracast operation
* fix a few power consumption issues
* scan cleanup
* fixes for D0i3 system state
* add paging for devices that support it
* add again the new RBD allocation model
* add more options to the firmware debug system
* add support for frag SKBs in Tx

The drivers are converted to use the common firmware header struct.
Because the old header definition failed to indicate that the multi-byte
entries should be little endian, several problems were thus exposed.
These are fixed.

The driver code allows for the disabling of MSI interrupts; however the
module_parm line was missed and the option fails to show with modinfo.

The description of the power-save variables for this driver is not as
clear as for the others. The wording is changed to match the others.

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.

We should prefer `struct pci_device_id` over `DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE` to
meet kernel coding style guidelines. This issue was reported by checkpatch.
A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as
follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/):
// <smpl>
@@
identifier i;
declarer name DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE;
initializer z;
@@
- DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE(i)
+ const struct pci_device_id i[]
= z;
// </smpl>

The msi module parameter offers an option to enable or disable MSI
interrupts mode, for debugging and workaround(in case) convenience.

94010fa0dd07e8b904e7c6b6589f15573008ab15 ("rtlwifi: add MSI interrupts
mode support") introduced MSI interrupts mode support, which seemed
safe enough with RTL8188EE and RTL8723BE as RealTek's testing results,
but some users reported their RTL8188EE modules could not connect to
any wireless network after the MSI mode was enabled by Ubuntu 14.04.
So, let's fallback to pin-based mode until rtlwifi's MSI support get
good compatibility.

In a previous commit, Peter Wu removed this call as configure_filter takes care
of setting/clearing RCR_AAP. This patch makes the same change for rtl8723be.
In addition, a change is made in the logging level for one debug printout.
