Subject: [PATCH] carl9170: Convert byte_rev_table uses to bitrev8

Use the inline function instead of directly indexing the array.

This allows some architectures with hardware instructions for bit
reversals to eliminate the array.

carl9170: Convert byte_rev_table uses to bitrev8

Use the inline function instead of directly indexing the array.

This allows some architectures with hardware instructions
for bit reversals to eliminate the array.

Got it ,
So I need wait for your another patch to be accepted.

Thanks!
