Currently mwifiex_send_cmd function is not exported to external modules, it is 
designed for module mwifiex internal use.

If we export mwifiex_send_cmd, and call it in mwifiex_usb. There will be a loop,

.Device_dump (module mwifiex_usb)  -->  mwifiex_send_cmd(module mwifiex)  --> 
.host_to_card (module mwifiex_usb)

This seems not an elegant design, right?
