Here is the big set of staging and IIO driver updates for 5.15-rc1.
Also included in here are the counter driver subsystem updates as the
IIO drivers needed them.
Lots of churn in some staging drivers, we dropped the "old" rtl8188eu
driver and replaced it with a newer version of the driver that had been
maintained out-of-tree by Larry with the end goal of actually being able
to get this driver out of staging eventually. Despite that driver being
"newer" the line count of this pull request is going up.
Some drivers moved out of staging as well, which is always nice to see,
that is why there are additions to the mfc and misc driver subsystems.
All of these were acked by the various subsystem maintainers involved.
But by far, as normal, it's coding style cleanups all over the
drivers/staging/ tree in here.
Full details of these changes are in the shortlog.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems.

[ Note: the r8188eu merge clashed with commit 89939e8906 ("staging:
rtlwifi: use siocdevprivate") from the networking tree. When resolving
the issue, I noted that the whole r8188eu rtw_android code is dead
since commit ae7471cae0 ("staging: r8188eu: remove rtw_ioctl
function").
End result: the merge resolution was to throw all of that away,
rather than do the mindless fixup to code that isn't actually
reachable - Linus ]

We already depend on USB. There's no need to set CONFIG_USB_HCI in the
Makefile.
Some other Realtek drivers use #ifdef CONFIG_USB_HCI in their code, the
r8188 driver doesn't.

It seems that for now, we can only build this driver as a module.
Use the same mechanism as other drivers (such as rtl8723bs or the
deprecated rtl8188eu) to enforce building as a module, i.e. depend on m
in Kconfig instead of setting CONFIG_R8188EU = m in the Makefile.
If we set CONFIG_R8188EU in the Makefile, this setting will not be visible
in .config.

Remove the several lines from the Makefile that append EXTRA_CFLAGS options
to silence build warnings about unused variables, unused functions and such
like. This will enable cleanup of missed warnings, and easier spotting
of future such problems.

The driver seems to want to include a specific directory for all include
files on the build path, but that breaks when trying to build only the
module directory, or when building with "O=" option.
Fix this up by making all includes for the driver be relative locations.

ODM_GetRightChnlPlaceforIQK() is only called in one place, so move the
call to the single location and make the file static.
This lets us remove the hal/HalPhyRf.c and include/HalPhyRf.h files as
they are now empty.

This patchset is split in order to keep the file sizes down. These
supporting files are part of the newer/better driver from GitHub modified by
Larry Finger. Import this as the basis for all future work going
forward. Also, modify Makefile so that driver has same module filename
as original rtl8188eu driver from staging, and rename config params to
fit the Kconfig file taken from the old driver. Finally, reword Kconfig
description to make it clear this is a newer driver.
