In testing I noticed that the wl1271 commands fall into two categories. In the
first category are "fast" commands, these mostly take only 0 or 1 polls to
complete, but occasionally upto 50 (giving a 0.5ms execution time.) In the
second category, the command completion takes well more than 0.5ms (from
1.5ms upwards.)
This patch fixes command polling such that it is optimal for the fast commands,
but also allows sleep for the longer ones.

When scanning, it is somewhat important to scan

that currently implement hw_scan only support a

and then we'd want to be ready.

wl1251 has WLAN_IRQ pin for generating interrupts to host processor,
which is mandatory in SPI mode and optional in SDIO mode (which can
use SDIO interrupts instead). However TI recommends using deditated
IRQ line for SDIO too.
Add support for using dedicated interrupt line with SDIO, but also leave
ability to switch to SDIO interrupts in case it's needed.

wl1251 is embedded chip that can be connected using SDIO bus, and is not
an actual SDIO card. For this reason there is a need to pass some board
specific data, like 'EEPROM is attached' flag or power control callback.
However currently there is no way to pass this data through SDIO subsystem,
so this patch registers dummy platform_device to allow that, until we
have a better solution to this.
