v1.1 allows finer grained tuning of the SSC (spread-spectrum-clocking)
settings for SAS and SATA.  See notes in probe_roms.h

v1.3 allows the attenuation of the attached cables to be specified to
the driver in terms of 'short', 'medium', and 'long' (see probe_roms.h).
These settings (per phy) are retrieved from the platform oem-parameters
(BIOS rom), the fallback firmware blob, or via a module parameter
override.

Most of the CIS files come from the pcmcia-cs project and are built
from a text format using the pack_cis tool.

In pcmcia-cs 3.2.8, apparently the last release, pack_cis had some
bugs that are fatal when it is built with a current gcc and glibc.
Therefore I refer to my own repackaged version that runs successfully
and generates exactly the same binaries included here.

isci requires a parameter blob which is usually found in NVRAM, but it
can fall back to loading with request_firmware().  These files are
taken from the Linux source tree where they were wrongly added in
Linux 3.0.

New firmware fixes iSCSI problems with some LeftHand targets that don't
set TTT=0xffffffff for Data-In according to spec.  Firmware generates
exception warnings for this condition and becomes very slow.  This is
fixed by suppressing these warnings when using default error mask.

Includes fixes for the following issues:

     firmware to abort the connection with RST.
  2. (FCoE) There is a probability that truncated FCoE packet on
     RX path won't get detected which might lead to FW assert.
  3. (iSCSI) Arrival of target-initiated NOP-IN during intense
     ISCSI traffic might lead to FW assert.
  4. (iSCSI) Chip hangs when in case of retransmission not aligned
     to 4-bytes from the beginning of iSCSI PDU.
  5. (FCoE) Arrival of packets beyond task IO size can lead to crash.

The new wl12xx fw (ver 7.3.0.0.77) had some major api changes.
The main change was the addition of multi-role concept.
For each chip there are two FW kind:
1) A single FW for both STA and AP roles
2) PLT FW that support calibration process

Update FW for WL128x chip to  7.3.0.0.77:
  STA & AP FW version
  PLT FW version

Update FW for WL127x chip 6.3.0.0.77:

libertas chips.  OLPC hardware has additional features and quirks,
which makes special firmware necessary.  The 'lbtf' blobs are
thin firmware, which allows the Linux drivers more control over
