This generates a massive reduction in module size:
with debug:
text data bss dec hex filename
670300 13136 420 683856 a6f50 iwlagn.ko (before)
388347 13136 408 401891 621e3 iwlagn.ko (after)
without debug:
text data bss dec hex filename
528575 13072 420 542067 84573 iwlagn.ko (before)
294192 13072 408 307672 4b1d8 iwlagn.ko (after)
This also removes all the IO debug functionality since
it can easily be replaced by tracing, and makes the
code unnecessarily complex.
I haven't done any CPU utilisation measurements, but
given that the hotpaths don't use much IO it is not
likely to have a negative impact; in fact, the size
reduction will reduce cache pressure which possibly
improves performance.
Finally, an unused function or two were removed.

For all the new devices, the sku information should read from EEPROM
but for legacy devices such as 4965, appearly the EEPROM does not
contain the necessary information. so skip the read from EEPROM
and go back to use software configuration.

When read valid tx/rx chains from EEPROM, there is a bug to use the
tx chain value for both tx and rx, the result of this cause low
receive throughput on 1x2 devices becuase rx will only utilize single
chain instead of two chains

For logging EEPROM related info, instead of using IWL_DEBUG_INFO,
use the dedicated logging (IWL_DEBUG_EEPROM) for easier debugging

This removes the old TX power reading code, it isn't
necessary since the new code is able to read all the
various EEPROM layouts due to relying on information
contained in the EEPROM.

The current EEPROM reading code has some layout
assumptions that now turned out to be false with
some newer versions of the EEPROM. Luckily, we
can avoid all such assumptions by using data in
the EEPROM itself, so implement using that.
However, for risk mitigation purposes, keep the
old reading code for current hardware for now.

Some fields we didn't previously use from the
enhanced TX power structure will be needed in
the next patch, so rename them to their correct
names to be able to use them and change code
reading them accordingly.

The valid tx/rx antenna information is part of EEPROM, so use it
to configure the device.
For few cases, the EEPROM did not reflect the correct antenna, but
it is too late to modify the EEPROM, so overwrite with .cfg parameters

Some of the functions in iwl-eeprom.c file are for agn devices only,
Those functions do not have to be part of iwlcore.ko, so move those
to iwl-agn-eeprom.c file.
