65c5d097a4 mac80211: stop brcmfmac from selecting all PCIe firmwares
Now we have firmwares separated and bcm53xx selecting required ones make
use of it to actually save that rootfs space.
Other targets using brcmfmac (brcm2708 and sunxi) use SDIO interface and
firmware so they don't won't be affected.

ac887f4832 linux-firmware: separate packages for Broadcom FullMAC PCIe firmwares
Using few packages will allow saving some space by decreasing rootfs
size. Dropping 43602a1 firmware saves 316 580 B. Dropping 4366b1 saves
468 188 B.

Moreover there are more firmware files that may require packaging and
even more to come later (e.g. 4366c0).

This can especially useful now, with per device rootfs.

c729fe0269 mac80211: backport brcmfmac changes from 2016-07-08
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.

70afc0bdd1 kernel: mac80211: set the parent of the ath9k gpio_chip
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>;

7b7ea91e24 kernel: mac80211: enable the gpio controller for all ath9k devices
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
determines the number of GPIOs.
