Revert commit 54672386ccf36ffa21d1de8e75624af83f9b0eeb
"firewire: ohci: fix up configuration of TI chips".
It caused massive slow-down and data corruption with a TSB82AA2 based
StarTech EC1394B2 ExpressCard and FireWire 800 harddisks.

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.firewire.user/4013
The fact that some card EEPROMs do not program these enhancements may be
related to TSB81BA3 phy chip errata, if not to bugs of TSB82AA2 itself.
We could re-add these configuration steps, but only conditional on a
whitelist of cards on which these enhancements bring a proven positive
effect.

Implement the cmstr bit, which is required for cycle master capable
nodes and tested for by the Base 1394 Test Suite.
This bit allows the bus master to disable cycle start packets; there are
bus master implementations that actually do this.

On TI chips (OHCI-Lynx and later), enable link enhancements features
that TI recommends to be used. None of these are required for proper
operation, but they are safe and nice to have.
In theory, these bits should have been set by default, but in practice,
some BIOS/EEPROM writers apparently do not read the datasheet, or get
spooked by names like "unfair".

The OHCI spec says that, if the programPhyEnable bit is set, the driver
is responsible for configuring the IEEE1394a enhancements within the PHY
and the link consistently. So do this.
Also add a quirk to allow disabling these enhancements; this is needed
for the TSB12LV22 where ack accelerations are buggy (erratum b).

The three header files of firewire-core, i.e.
"drivers/firewire/fw-device.h",
"drivers/firewire/fw-topology.h",
"drivers/firewire/fw-transaction.h",
are replaced by
"drivers/firewire/core.h",
"include/linux/firewire.h".
The latter includes everything which a firewire high-level driver (like
firewire-sbp2) needs besides linux/firewire-constants.h, while core.h
contains the rest which is needed by firewire-core itself and by low-
level drivers (card drivers) like firewire-ohci.
High-level drivers can now also reside outside of drivers/firewire
without having to add drivers/firewire to the header file search path in
makefiles. At least the firedtv driver will be such a driver.
I also considered to spread the contents of core.h over several files,
one for each .c file where the respective implementation resides. But
it turned out that most core .c files will end up including most of the
core .h files. Also, the combined core.h isn't unreasonably big, and it
will lose more of its contents to linux/firewire.h anyway soon when more
firewire drivers are added. (IP-over-1394, firedtv, and there are plans
for one or two more.)
Furthermore, fw-ohci.h is renamed to ohci.h. The name of core.h and
ohci.h is chosen with regard to name changes of the .c files in a
follow-up change.
