Subject: [PATCH 1/2] firewire-core: add kernel API to construct multichannel isoc context

In 1394 OHCI specification, IR context has several modes. One of mode
is 'multiChanMode'. For this mode, Linux FireWire stack has
FW_ISO_CONTEXT_RECEIVE_MULTICHANNEL flag apart from FW_ISO_CONTEXT_RECEIVE,
and associated internal callback. However, code of firewire-core driver
includes cast of function callback for the mode and this brings
inconvenient to effort of Control Flow Integrity builds.

This commit is a preparation to remove the cast. A new kernel API for the
mode is added and existent API is specific for FW_ISO_CONTEXT_RECEIVE and
FW_ISO_CONTEXT_TRANSMIT modes. Actually, no in-kernel driver uses the mode
and the additional kernel API is never used at present.
