Revert commit dfdfe4be18 ("wifi: iwlwifi: remove retry loops in
start"), it turns out that there's an issue with the PNVM load
notification from firmware not getting processed, that this patch
has been somewhat successfully papering over. Since this is being
reported, revert the loop removal for now.
We will later at least clean this up to only attempt to retry if
there was a timeout, but currently we don't even bubble up the
failure reason to the correct layer, only returning NULL.

Given how late we are in the cycle, merge the two fixes from
wireless into wireless-next as they don't see that urgent.
This way, the wireless tree won't need rebasing later.

There are some changes coming to wireless-next that will
otherwise cause conflicts, pull wireless in first to be
able to resolve that when applying the individual changes
rather than having to do merge resolution later.

There's a race when the device is unbound (maybe because the
module is unloaded) while the opmode start hasn't finished yet.
The complete(request_firmware_complete) after the opmode start
was meant (and commented accordingly) to prevent this problem,
but it's not sufficient when the opmode module is loaded after
the firmware load already completed, which happens regularly
now because firmware load doesn't require userspace, unlike
module load.
Fix this by using the existing opmode registration mutex to
protected the start/stop flows against each other properly.

All the configurations for the various Bz/Gl devices
are basically identical, except for Gl A-step and the
firmware filename prefixes.
Add some infrastructure to auto-generate the firmware
filename prefix based on the detected MAC step and
RF name/step, and remove all the unneeded configs.
This reduces the size of the iwlwifi module by ~9k:

Most of this change is a continuation of commit 403ea939ea
("iwlwifi: dbg: Mark ucode tlv data as const") propagating the
(const) type qualifier for ucode based tlv data to avoid having
the impression that it is writeable.
The other part of the change preserves the (const) type qualifier
over casts and function calls where it was previously lost.
Both changes are needed to avoid compile time errors on system with
more strict error settings, in this case found with clang on FreeBSD.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE is set, iwlwifi crashes
when the opmode module cannot be loaded, due to completing
the completion before using drv->dev, which can then already
be freed.
Fix this by removing the (fairly useless) message. Moving the
completion later causes a deadlock instead, so that's not an
option.

* Some other small fixes, clean-ups and improvements.
We have a MAC component (which is inside the SoC) and it has several
different HW steps. 3 bits used to be enough but now we need 4-bits
to represent all the different steps.
Properly support 4-bits in the MAC step value by refactoring all the
current handling of the MAC step/dash.
Already from family 8000 and up the dash (bits 0-1) no longer exists
and the step (until 8000 bits 2-3) consists of the dash bits as well.
To do this remove the CSR_HW_REV_STEP and the CSR_HW_REV_DASH
macros, replace them with CSR_HW_REV_STEP_DASH and add hw_rev_step
into the trans struct.
In addition remove the CSR_HW_IF_CONFIG_REG_MSK_MAC_STEP and
CSR_HW_IF_CONFIG_REG_MSK_MAC_DASH macros and create a new macro
combining the 2 (this way we don't need shifting or anything else.)
