iwlwifi: DMA fixes
A few issues wrt DMA were uncovered when using the driver with swiotlb. - driver should not use memory after it has been mapped - iwl3945's RX queue management cannot use all of iwlagn because the size of the RX buffer is different. Revert back to using iwl3945 specific routines that map/unmap memory. - no need to "dma_syn_single_range_for_cpu" followed by pci_unmap_single, we can just call pci_unmap_single initially - only map the memory area that will be used by device. this is especially relevant to the mapping of iwl_cmd. we should not map the entire structure because the meta data at the beginning of structure contains the address to be used later for unmapping. If the address to be used for unmapping is stored in mapped data it creates a problem. - ensure that _if_ memory needs to be modified after it is mapped that we call _sync_single_for_cpu first, and then release it back to device with _sync_single_for_device - we mapped the wrong length of data for host commands, with mapped length differing with length provided to device, fix that. Thanks to Jason Andryuk <jandryuk@gmail.com> for significant bisecting help to find these issues.
