The wcn36xx wifi driver follows the life cycle of the WLAN_CTRL SMD channel, as such it should be a SMD client. This patch makes this transition, now that we have the necessary frameworks available. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Andersson <redacted>

While I had this patch on my pending branch I noticed that I can't compile wcn36xx on x86 anymore. This is actually quite inconvenient, for example then it's easy to miss mac80211 API changes etc. Is there any way we could continue build testing wcn36xx on x86 (or all) platforms? Also what about older platforms? Earlier I used wcn36xx on my Nexus 4 with help of backports project. I can't do that anymore, right? -- Kalle Valo
