Some devices (like the Cisco Meraki Z1 Cloud Managed Teleworker Gateway)
need to be able to initialize the PCIe wifi device. Normally, this is done
during the early stages of booting linux, because the necessary init code
is read from the memory mapped SPI and passed to pci_enable_ath9k_fixup.
However,this isn't possible for devices which have the init code for the
Atheros chip stored on NAND in an UBI volume. Hence, this module can be
used to initialze the chip when the user-space is ready to extract the
init code.
Martin Blumenstingl made a few fixes and added support for lantiq:
kernel: owl-loader: add support for OWL emulation PCI devices
kernel: owl-loader: don't re-scan the bus when ath9k_pci_fixup failed
kernel: owl-loader: use dev_* instead of pr_* logging functions
kernel: owl-loader: auto-generate the eeprom filename as fallback
kernel: owl-loader: add a debug message when swapping the eeprom data
kernel: owl-loader: add missing newlines in log messages
kernel: owl-loader: add support for the lantiq platform
These patches have been integrated. Thanks!

Now that we have firmwares separated and brcm2708 being the only target that
actually selects SDIO support, avoid selecting all firmwares by default.
sunxi should select the proper firmwares once SDIO support is enabled and
tested.

Using few packages will allow saving some space by decreasing rootfs
size.
Moreover there are more firmware files that may require packaging and
even more to come later.
This can especially useful now, with per device rootfs.

clean up usb gadget support:
- rename gadget modules so that they appear together and are easier to
identify as gadget modules
- make usb-lib-composite and usb-gadget hidden as there is no point in
selecting those without gadget drivers that require them as deps

To work correctly hostapd requires wireless driver to allow interfaces
removal. It was working with brcmfmac only partially. Firmware for
BCM43602 got some special hack (feature?) that allowed removing all
interfaces by disabling mbss mode. It wasn't working with BCM4366
firmware and remaining interfaces were preventing hostapd from starting
again.
Those patches add support for "interface_remove" firmware method which
works with BCM4366 firmware and they make it finally possible to use
BCM4366 & brcmfmac & multiple interfaces.

This allows gpiolib to re-use ath9k's devicetree node as GPIO
controller.
Example:
ath9k: ath9k@0 {
#gpio-cells = <2>;
gpio-controller;
}
Now the ath9k node can be used just like any other GPIO controller:
gpios = <&ath9k 1 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;

This enables ath9k's built-in GPIO controller for all chip versions
(instead of an explicit whitelist). This also allows us to get rid of
some duplicate code between hw.c and gpio.c because hw.c already

Instead of downloading the firmware for prism54 devices in the
wireless.mk do it in an extra package Makefile. To ship the complete
source code Intel ships our modified OpenWrt/LEDE + the content of the
dl directory. We do not want to have any files in the dl/ directory
which are not needed to build our images. The prism54 gets downloaded
every time independently of building kmod-net-prism54 or not. When it
is in a own package it only gets downloaded when the firmware package
is selected.
