mac80211: brcmfmac: backport firmware loading changes & fix memory bugs
This pick most of brcmfmac changes backported into the master in commits 5932eb690f24 ("mac80211: brcmfmac: backport firmware loading cleanup") 3eab6b8275b2 ("mac80211: brcmfmac: backport NVRAM loading improvements") 529c95cc15dc ("mac80211: brcmfmac: fix use-after-free & possible NULL pointer dereference") It's more than would be normally backported into a stable branch but it seems required. Firmware loading cleanups are needed to allow fix memory bugs in a reliable way. Memory fixes are really important to avoid corrupting memory and risking a NULL pointer dereference. Hopefully this stuff has received enough testing in the master. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>

To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system. You need gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make, find, grep, diff, unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers installed. 1. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default 2. Run "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ 3. Run "make menuconfig" to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. 4. Run "make" to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system. Sunshine!
