There are no known users of this driver as of October 2020, and it will
be removed unless someone turns out to still need it in future releases.
According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WiMAX_networks, there
have been many public wimax networks, but it appears that many of these
have migrated to LTE or discontinued their service altogether.
As most PCs and phones lack WiMAX hardware support, the remaining
networks tend to use standalone routers. These almost certainly
run Linux, but not a modern kernel or the mainline wimax driver stack.
NetworkManager appears to have dropped userspace support in 2015
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747846, the
www.linuxwimax.org
site had already shut down earlier.
WiMax is apparently still being deployed on airport campus networks
("AeroMACS"), but in a frequency band that was not supported by the old
Intel 2400m (used in Sandy Bridge laptops and earlier), which is the
only driver using the kernel's wimax stack.
Move all files into drivers/staging/wimax, including the uapi header
files and documentation, to make it easier to remove it when it gets
to that. Only minimal changes are made to the source files, in order
to make it possible to port patches across the move.
Also remove the MAINTAINERS entry that refers to a broken mailing
list and website.

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.
Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

The Intel WiMax Wireless Link 6050 can show under more than one USB
ID. Add support for all, introducing a generic flag (i2400mu->i6050)
that denotes a 6x50 based device.

Add support for the WiMAX device in the Intel WiFi/WiMAX Link 6050
Series; this involves:
- adding the device ID to bind to and an endpoint mapping for the
driver to use.
- at probe() time, some things are set depending on the device id:
+ the list of firmware names to try
+ mapping of endpoints

Newer generations of the i2400m USB WiMAX device use a different
endpoint map; in order to make it easy to support it, we make the
endpoint-to-function mapeable instead of static.

In i2400m-based devices, the driver's bootloader will retry to load
the firmware when things go wrong. The driver currently has a constant
(I2400M_BOOT_RETRIES) which governs the max number of tries.
However, different SKUs of the same hardware may admit or require
different numbers of retries due to it's particulars, so it is made a
BUS specific parameter and different values are assigned for 5x50
devices versus the 3200 ones.
