Lachlan Hodges b1906cea00 wifi: mm81x: add mm81x Wi-Fi HaLow driver
mm81x is the first Wi-Fi HaLow driver to support the Morse Micro mm81x
chip family via USB and SDIO.

S1G support in the kernel is only new, and as a result this driver has
been scoped to be simple and only support station and AP interface.
The Wi-Fi specific features only cover the minimum required for basic
use such as powersave, aggregation, rate control and so on. The driver
will be extended into the future as S1G support for operations such as
ACS, channel switching and so on are added into the wireless stack.

The driver has been build tested on a long list of architectures and
compilers via Intels LKP.

The driver currently supports IEEE80211-2024 US channels only, with
AU 2020 also available. In order for this to be expanded additional
non-trivial kernel work is required which will begin once the
driver is upstream.

The driver has had many authors who are listed below in
alphabetical order:
