Port the bt_coex_mode sysfs interface from wl1251 driver version
included in the Maemo Fremantle kernel to allow bt-coexistence
mode configuration. This enables userspace applications to set one
of the modes WL1251_BT_COEX_OFF, WL1251_BT_COEX_ENABLE and
WL1251_BT_COEX_MONOAUDIO. The default mode is WL1251_BT_COEX_OFF.
It should be noted that this driver always enabled bt-coexistence
before and enabled bt-coexistence directly affects the receiving
performance, rendering it unusable in some low-signal situations.
Especially monitor mode is affected very badly with bt-coexistence
enabled.

So what user-space process will be using this interface.

On Maemo daemon wlancond use this interface. It use information from 
bluez daemon to decide if btcoex is needed to enable or not (and also 
which mode).

Did you consider adding debugfs interface?

Other drivers uses sysfs, so I proposed also sysfs interface.

In case of monitor mode you could
consider disabling bt-coex from within the driver itself.

I'm not sure if you want to do it always in this case...
