ipwireless: Preallocate received packet buffers with MRU size
Really, it can't ever have been even compile tested. It looks like the
closing bracket is in the wrong place, so this is the fix.

ipwireless: Preallocate received packet buffers with MRU size
Packets are assembled from link size (~300 bytes) up to PPP MRU
(1500 by default). Try to preallocate full size rather than
repeatedly advance buffer size by 256 bytes.

ipwireless: Do not return value from sending funcs
Do not return value from do_send_fragment and do_send_packet, it's not used.
The packet size checks are not useful too:
* zero length packet will never be sent, caller always passes packet_header
size which is either 1 or 3
* MTU check is done in caller, no need to repeat

ipwireless: Misc cleanups
- remove likely() and some extra () in ifs
- use unsigned in for loops
- remove useless typecasts
- remove obvious comments
- add () around ?:

Coverity CID: 2172 RESOURCE_LEAK
When pool_allocate() tries to enlarge a packet, if it can not allocate enough
memory, it returns NULL without first freeing the old packet.
This patch just frees the packet first.

Packet sending is driven by two flags, tx_ready and tx_queued.
It was possible, that there were queued data for sending and
hardware was flagged as blocked but in fact it was not.
The tx_queued was indicator but should be really a counter else
first fragmented packet resets tx_queued flag, but there may be
pending packets which do not get sent.
New semantics:
tx_ready - set, if hw is ready to send packet, no packet is being
transferred right now
set the flag right at the place where data are copied
into hw memory and not earlier without checking if it
was succesful
tx_queued - count of enqueued packets, including fragments

The device is manufactured by IPWireless. In some countries (for
example Czech Republic, T-Mobile ISP) this card is shipped for service
called UMTS 4G.
It's a piece of PCMCIA "4G" UMTS PPP networking hardware that presents
itself as a serial character device (i.e. looks like usual modem to
userspace, accepts AT commands, etc).
