cc189c0b7f mac80211: enable ath10k AHB support for QCA4019
This patch enables the ATH10K_AHB support for the QCA4019
devices on the AHB bus.

This patch also removes 936-ath10k_skip_otp_check.patch
because it breaks the AHB device identification.
"Patch is wrong. I find it frustrating OpenWRT/LEDE doesn't
try to work with upstream on ixing these things right."

[1] <https://www.mail-archive.com/ath10k@lists.infradead.org/msg05896.html>

It also limits ath10k memory hunger (This is a problem with 128MiB RAM)

84d57fc485 mac80211: Make wlcore platform-independent
TI wl18xx and wl12xx are Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo modules
that could be found on different existing boards.

But it is possible to get those modules as a separate
component and use with existing boards as well as
new boards equipped with either module may appear so we
remove dependency on OMAP instead we add dependency on MMC
because this Wi-Fi module uses SDIO interface.

5f8f8a3661 base-files, mac80211, broadcom-wl: wifi detection and configuration
Currently, the wifi detection script is executed as part of
the (early) boot process. Pluggable wifi USB devices, which
are inserted at a later time are not automatically
detected and therefore they don't show up in LuCI.

A user has to deal with wifi detection manually, or restart
the router.

However, the current "sleep 1" window - which the boot
process waits for wifi devices to "settle down" - is too
short to detect wifi devices for some routers anyway.

For example, this can happen with USB WLAN devices on the
WNDR4700. This is because the usb controller needs to load
its firmware from UBI and initialize, before it can operate.

The issue can be seen on a BT HomeHub 5A as well as soon as
the caldata are on an ubi volume. This is because the ath9k
card has to be initialized by owl-loader first. Which has to
wait for the firmware extraction script to retrieve the pci
initialization values inside the caldata.

This patch moves the wifi configuration to hotplug scripts.
For mac80211, the wifi configuration will now automatically
run any time a "ieee80211" device is added. Likewise
broadcom-wl's script checks for new "net" devices which
have the "wl$NUMBER" moniker.

Issues with spawning multiple interface configuration - in
case the detection script is run concurrently - have been
resolved by using a named section for the initial
configuration. Concurrent configuration scripts will now
simply overwrite the same existing configuration.

A workaround which preserves the "sleep 1" window for just
the first boot has been added. This allows the existing
brcm47xx boot and mvebu uci-default scripts to correctly
setup the initial mac addresses and regulatory domain.

And finally, the patch renames the "wifi detect" into
"wifi config". As the script no longer produces any output
that has to be redirected or appended to the configuration
file.

Thanks to Martin Blumenstingl for helping with the implementation
and testing of the patch.

3ec4803932 mac80211: respect user-set regulatory domain by default
It turns out most device vendors don't set the correct country code
in their devices' on-flash-EEPROM sections as they apparently rather
provide a complete per-target-market firmware with patched drivers
instead of just setting the country code.
This results in the driver to incorrectly assume the value stored in
the on-flash-EERPOM (usually US or China) being the regulatory domain
inside which the device is being used.
To work around this issue, OpenWrt introduced the ATH_USER_REGD config
variable to decide during build whether or not to allow the user to
override the regulatory domain setting. This option, however, is not
enabled by default and thus ends up being disabled for snapshots builds
and released binaries.
As we know for a long time that most devices got borked regulatory
domain values set in their EEPROMs we should allow our users to respect
their local law (instead of just assume US or China laws).
Note that also the current default has great potential of users not
ever setting their regulatory domain and thus using inapproriate and
potentially illegal frequencies and/or tx-power settings

1f5f096faa mac80211: add rtl8xxxu
OpenWrt is often used to develop or test new devices
Some users might want to test and help to improve
this new driver

upstream commit notice 26f1fad29ad973b0fb26a9ca3dcb2a73dde781aa

New driver: rtl8xxxu (mac80211)
This is an alternate driver for a number of Realtek WiFi USB devices,
including RTL8723AU, RTL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, and RTL8192CU.
It was written from scratch utilizing the Linux mac80211 stack.

After spending months cleaning up the vendor provided rtl8723au
driver, which comes with it's own 802.11 stack included, I decided to
rewrite this driver from the bottom up.

Many thanks to Johannes Berg for 802.11 insights and help and Larry
Finger for help with the vendor driver.

The full git log for the development of this driver can be found here:
git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jes/linux.git
    branch rtl8723au-mac80211

This driver is still under development, but has proven to be very
stable for me. It currently supports station mode only. It has support
for OFDM and CCK rates. It does lack certain features found in the
staging driver, such as power management, AMPDU, and 40MHz channel
support. In addition it does not support AD-HOC, AP, and monitor mode
support at this point.

The driver is known to work with the following devices:
Lenovo Yoga (rtl8723au)
TP-Link TL-WN823N (rtl8192cu)
Etekcity 6R (rtl8188cu)
Daffodil LAN03 (rtl8188cu)
Alfa AWUS036NHR (rtl8188ru)

Compile tested only
