Hauke Mehrtens ec684ce193 mac80211: Add patches which were added later
These patches were added after the new matches structure for the
mac80211 package was created. All the deleted patches are already
integrated in kernel 4.19-rc4.

Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: fix wrong strnchr usage
strnchr takes arguments in the order of its name: string, max bytes to
read, character to search for. Here we're passing '\n' aka 10 as the
buffer size, and searching for sizeof(buf) aka BRCMF_DCMD_SMLEN aka
256 (aka '\0', since it's implicitly converted to char) within those 10
bytes.
Just interchanging the last two arguments would still leave a bug,
because if we've been successful once, there are not sizeof(buf)
characters left after the new value of p.
Since clmver is immediately afterwards passed as a %s argument, I assume
that it is actually a properly nul-terminated string. For that case, we
have strreplace().
