Rafał Miłecki 29aab93ea2 mac80211: backport brcmfmac fixes & debugging helpers from 4.18
The most important is probably regression fix in handling platform
NVRAM. That bug stopped hardware from being properly calibrated breaking
e.g. 5 GHz for Netgear R8000.

Other than that it triggers memory dumps when experiencing firmware
problems which is important for debugging purposes.

Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: fix regression in parsing NVRAM for multiple
devices
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

NVRAM is designed to work with Broadcom's SDK Linux kernel which fakes
PCI domain 0 for all internal MMIO devices. Since official Linux kernel
uses platform devices for that purpose there is a mismatch in numbering
PCI domains.
There used to be a fix for that problem but it was accidentally dropped
during the last firmware loading rework. That resulted in brcmfmac not
being able to extract device specific NVRAM content and all kind of
calibration problems.
