[PATCH v6 1/5] firmware: add extensible driver data params

From: Luis R. Rodriguez
Date: Wed Mar 29 2017 - 23:25:33 EST

As the firmware API evolves we keep extending functions with more arguments.
Stop this nonsense by proving an extensible data structure which can be used
to represent both user parameters and private internal parameters.

We introduce 3 data structures:

o struct driver_data_req_params - used for user specified parameters
o struct driver_data_priv_params - used for internal use
o struct driver_data_params - stiches both of the the above together,
also only for internal use

This starts off by just making the existing APIs use the new data
structures, it will make subsequent changes easier to review which will
be adding new flexible APIs.

This commit should introduces no functional changes (TM).
