wimax/i2400m: decide properly if using signed vs non-signed firmware loading
The i2400m based devices can boot two main types of firmware images: signed and non-signed. Signed images have signature data included that must match that of a certificate stored in the device. Currently the code is making the decission on what type of firmware load (signed vs non-signed) is going to be loaded based on a hardcoded decission in __i2400m_ack_verify(), based on the barker the device sent upon boot. This is not flexible enough as future hardware will emit more barkers; thus the bit has to be set in a place where there is better knowledge of what is going on. This will be done in follow-up commits -- however this patch paves the way for it. So the querying of the mode is packed into i2400m_boot_is_signed(); the main changes are just using i2400m_boot_is_signed() to determine the method to follow and setting i2400m->sboot in i2400m_is_boot_barker(). The modifications in i2400m_dnload_init() and i2400m_dnload_finalize() are just reorganizing the order of the if blocks and thus look larger than they really are.
