/**
 * DOC: WLAN OSIF REQUEST MANAGER
 *
 * Many operations within the wlan driver occur in an asynchronous
 * manner. Requests are received by OSIF via one of the kernel
 * interfaces (ioctl, nl80211, virtual file system, etc.). The
 * requests are translated to an internal format and are then passed
 * to lower layers, usually via SME, for processing. For requests
 * which require a response, that response comes up from the lower
 * layers in a separate thread of execution, ultimately resulting in a
 * call to a callback function that was provided by OSIF as part of the
 * initial request. So a mechanism is needed to synchronize the
 * request and response. This framework provides that mechanism.
 *
 * Once the framework has been initialized, the typical sequence of
 * events is as follows:
 *
 * Request Thread:
 * 1. Create a &struct osif_request_params which describes the request.
 * 2. Call osif_request_alloc() to allocate a &struct osif_request.
 * 3. Call osif_request_priv() to get a pointer to the private data.
 * 4. Place any information which must be shared with the Response
 *    Callback in the private data area.
 * 5. Call osif_request_cookie() to get the unique cookie assigned
 *    to the request.
 * 6. Call the underlying request handling API, passing the cookie
 *    as the callback's private context.
 * 7. Call osif_request_wait_for_response() to wait for the response
 *    (or for the request to time out).
 * 8. Use the return status to see if the request was successful. If
 *    it was, retrieve any response information from the private
 *    structure and prepare a response for userspace.
 * 9. Call osif_request_put() to relinquish access to the request.
 * 10. Return status to the caller.
 *
 * Response Callback:
 * 1. Call osif_request_get() with the provided cookie to see if the
 *    request structure is still valid.  If it returns %NULL then
 *    return since this means the request thread has already timed
 *    out.
 * 2. Call osif_request_priv() to get access to the private data area.
 * 3. Write response data into the private data area.
 * 4. Call osif_request_complete() to indicate that the response is
 *    ready to be processed by the request thread.
 * 5. Call osif_request_put() to relinquish the callback function's
 *    reference to the request.
