rt2x00: Introduce concept of driver data in struct rt2x00_dev.
We are getting more and more fields in struct rt2x00_dev that are specific to one or two of the low-level drivers. Instead of putting these fields inside the main structure and thus clobbering all low-level drivers with these fields, introduce the concept of driver data inside struct rt2x00_dev, whose size is indicated by the low-level driver and which can be populated by the low-level driver.
