76378c6b9f build: use KERNEL_MAKE_FLAGS for kernel file compilations
The build system already defines KERNEL_CROSS which defaults to TARGET_CROSS.
Make use of this variable for kernel makefiles.

5172f799a3 ath10k-ct: switch to AutoProbe
Now that we have working module dependency generation, we can switch to
AutoProbe and let modprobe handle loading required modules.

efbd4e721d ath10k-ct: activate user space firmware loading again
This backports a patch from kernel 4.14 to the ath10k-ct version based
on kernel 4.13.
Some devices are using a user space script to load the calibration data
from the flash and this was not trigged any more.

3888e77c1c ath10k-ct driver: use dma_alloc_coherent, 4.13 based driver
This should help ath10k work on systems with little or no IOMMU
memory.  apu2 can boot two 9888 NICs now, for instance.  From
upstream patch by Adrian Chadd.

And, start building the 4.13 based CT ath10k driver.

a8f63a0717 mac80211: update to backports-4.14-rc2
This updates mac80211 to backprots-4.14-rc2.
This was compile and runtime tested with ath9k, ath10k and b43
with multiple stations and ieee80211w and in different scenarios by many
other people.

To create the backports-4.14-rc2-1.tar.xz use this repository:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/backports/backports.git
from tag v4.14-rc2-1

Then run this:
./gentree.py --git-revision v4.14-rc2 --clean  <path to linux repo> ../backports-4.14-rc2-1

This also adapts the ath10k-ct and mt76 driver to the changed cfg80211
APIs and syncs the nl80211.h file in iw with the new version from
backports-4.14-rc2.

1fc0a45558 ath10k-ct: Update to latest ath10k-ct driver.
Supports disabling firmware hex logging that many found too verbose.

Increase BMI timer so system works more often with 9888 Compex NIC
(and maybe others).

Allow configuring a specific board-file per NIC using fwcfg file.

Maybe fix a scan-busy problem when using CT firmware.

This lets one use the CT ath10k driver instead of the built-in
ath10k driver from the upstream kernel (or backports).

This should be a drop-in replacement, as well as enabling
better CT firmware support.
