Using an arbitrary firmware command was actually very painful. One
had to change big switch() statements in cmd.c, cmdresp.c, add
structs to the big union in "struct cmd_ds_command" and add the
define for the CMD_802_11_xxx to the proper place.
With this function, this is now much easier. For now, it implements
a blocking (a.k.a. CMD_OPTION_WAITFORRSP) way where one deals directly
with command requests and response buffers. You can do everything in
one place:

commit f04b3787bbce4567e28069a9ec97dcd804626ac7 introduced
a regression for the ofdmtable writing.
It incorrectly removed the writing of the high 16bits for
a 32bit table write and initialized the direction identifier
too late.
This patch does also some cleanups to make the code much more
readable and adds a few comments, so non rocket scientists are
also able to understand what this address caching is all about.

This patch eliminates the warning of unused return values when the driver
registers it sysfs files. Now the driver will print an error if it is
unable to register the sysfs files.
It also eliminates the macros used to wrap the DEVICE_ATTR macro and the
device_create_file function call. The macros don't reduce the number of
lines of source code in the file and the name munging makes is so that
cscope and friends don't see the references to the functions. It's better
to just call the kernel API directly.
While we're at it, the DEVICE_ATTR instances have been moved down to
be grouped with the functions they depend on.
