Rafał Miłecki db8e08a5a4 mac80211: brcm: backport first set of 5.4 brcmfmac changes
This doesn't include 9ff8614a3dbe ("brcmfmac: use separate Kconfig file
for brcmfmac") due to a few conflicts with backports changes.

An important change is:
[PATCH 2/7] brcmfmac: change the order of things in brcmf_detach()
which fixes a rmmod crash in the brcmf_txfinalize().

brcmfmac: do not use internal roaming engine by default
Some evidence of curing disconnects with this disabled, so make it a default.
Can be overridden with module parameter roamoff=0
