failed to initialize Intel 9560 wifi driver

[Wen-Jun Guo]

After rebase, the firmware still doesn't work. It returned the statux
0xdead on the ALIVE packet.
We don't know how to diagnose since we don't have the datasheet for the chip
.

I checked:
1. The current iwm's init code before waiting alive packet is similar to
linux's iwl driver. I don't know if there is a necessary register we should
set.
2. I see the version 34 of the loaded ucode from TLV field. That means the
system doesn't load an empty file. But, I am not able to confirm if each
byte is correct.

The current work I have posted on github
https://github.com/wjguo/freebsd/pull/1
It is welcome to give ideas of how to make the firmware running
successfully. Thanks.
