wimax/i2400m: implement passive mode as a module option
Some versions of the user space Intel WiMAX daemon need to have full control over the device initialization sequence. By setting the module option i2400.passive_mode to 1, the driver defers all device configuration and initialization to user space. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>
