Andrejs Cainikovs 255ca28a65 mwifiex: Select firmware based on strapping
Some WiFi/Bluetooth modules might have different host connection
options, allowing to either use SDIO for both WiFi and Bluetooth,
or SDIO for WiFi and UART for Bluetooth. It is possible to detect
whether a module has SDIO-SDIO or SDIO-UART connection by reading
its host strap register.

This change introduces a way to automatically select appropriate
firmware depending of the connection method, and removes a need
of symlinking or overwriting the original firmware file with a
required one.

Host strap register used in this commit comes from the NXP driver [1]
hosted at Code Aurora.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
