0b2c42ced2 mac80211: Update to version 5.2-rc7
This updates mac80211 to version 5.2-rc7, this contains all the changes
to the wireless subsystem up to Linux 5.2-rc7.

* The removed patches are applied upstream
* b43 now uses kmod-lib-cordic
* Update the nl80211.h file in iw to match backports version.
* Remove the two backports from kernel 4.9, they were needed for mt76,
  but that can use the version from backports now, otherwise they
  collide and cause compile errors.

FCC allows maximum antenna gain of 6 dBi. 15.247(b)(4):

I plan to integrate all the patches which are in this tar into upstream
