This should make the driver use request_firmware() instead of a static
firmware.
Some obvious things are missing:
1) The unneeded header files are not removed yet. This is to keep the
patch size small.
2) The .bin files are missing so the driver doesn't have what to load.
3) Testing. None of this was tested. It does compiles OK though :)

This hides under DEBUG_REGISTER_TRACE so probably

slic_entry_probe() calls pci_request_regions() but there's no matching
pci_release_regions() at driver's exit or if slic_entry_probe() fails.

Fix the remaining variables that still had '_t' as a postfix and also
a couple of checkpatch warnings.

This adds the Alacritech slicoss driver to the tree.
This driver is supposed to support:
Mojave cards (single port PCI Gigabit) both copper and fiber
Oasis cards (single and dual port PCI-x Gigabit) copper and fiber
Kalahari cards (dual and quad port PCI-e Gigabit) copper and fiber
The driver was acutally tested on Oasis and Kalahari cards.
TODO:
- move firmware loading to request_firmware()
- remove direct memory access of structures
- any remaining sparse and checkpatch.pl warnings
- any netdev recommended changes
Many thanks to Lior Dotan <liodot@gmail.com> for help with the cleanup
of this driver.
