bnx2x: update fw to 7.8.17
This new firmware includes the following changes:
1. Several corner case bugs in iSCSI code.
2. Fixes for FCoE including support for 3PAR targets.
3. Fixes for SR-IOV behaviour including:
a. Remove FW assert erroneously triggered during FLR.
b. Several fixes in FLR flow.
c. Prevent VF crash when packet bigger than MTU arrives.
d. Improve security against malicious VF.
4. Added CSUM and TSO support for encapsulation protocols.
5. Added RSS capability for GRE traffic based on inner headers.
6. Added FCoE support for 4-port 57840 devices.
v4l-cx23885-enc.fw is a duplicate of v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw, but
should contain code for a different part of the chip. Unfortunately
the correct code does not seem to be available for redistribution.

Move sd8688*.bin images into mrvl/ tree
They are (unlike rest of sd8xxx images from libertas/ and mrvl/) not Libertas
WiFi specific and are used for the bluetooth controller (btmrvl) which does not
look for them in libertas/.
Provide a compatibility symbolic link to avoid breaking libertas_sdio drivers
that are already in use.
There is no need to explicitly add a checksum, as the miniboot tool
normally does this for us. I can't reproduce the behaviour where the
checksum was omitted.

This new firmware fixes several minor bugs:
1. In switch dependent mode, DCB priority was used to override inner vlan
priority.
2. In switch dependent mode, inner vlan was added in case of DCB priority
even if outer vlan was present.
3. In switch dependent mode, outer vlan was overridden by DCB priority when
working in STATIC COS mode while inner vlan was present.
4. iSCSI - under heavy iSCSI traffic, when TCP out-of-order condition
occurred, it was possible for the connection to close and recover.
5. iSCSI - connections on-chip TCP establishment might have failed.
6. iSCSI - out-of-order isles might have caused on-chip TCP connections
to fail in their graceful termination.
7. iSCSI - there was a theoretical race in which an RST packet sent from
pure-ack queue in specific timing could cause a credit-return overflow.
8. iSCSI - not all packets were completed on a forward channel.
9. DCB - fixed for 4-port devices; Until now, wrong credit counters were
used, causing dcb to fail.
10. Fixed false parity reported in CAM memories when operating near -5% on
the 1.0V core supply.
11. ETS default settings are set to fairness between traffic classes (rather
than strict priority), and uses the same chip receive buffer configuration
for both PFC and pause.

rtlwifi/rtl8712u Revert firmware

driver rtl8188C_8192C_8192D_usb_linux_v3.4.2_3727.20120404, works with most

build: Implement minimal GNOME Build API
One more step on the road to entirely eliminating the concept of
packages. I adapted the installation rules from the Fedora
spec file.
They should clearly be less lame, but to do so we'd need more formal
rules about which files should be installed. Maybe just limit it to
things ending in ".bin" or ".fw"?

This new FW adds support in AFEX mode (multifunction using vntag
header).
It also fixes following issues:
1. Theoretical bug in GRO acceleration (only if the GRO Segment Length
is a multiple of the SGE Size). This will allow removing the
workaround from the driver.
2. When a TPA aggregation is open and a packet is accepted with
timestamp OOO, the new packet begins a new aggregation instead of
being indicated separately.
