Hello,

I think the wfx driver is now mature enough to be accepted in the
drivers/net/wireless directory.

The firmware is now a part of the linux-firmware repository since relase
20210315[1]. It had taken a bit of time because I have worked with the legal
department to simplify the redistribution terms of the firmware.

As requested by Kalle[2], I send one file per patch. At the end, all the
patches (or at least the patches 3 to 24) will be squashed (therefore, I
didn't bother to write real commit messages).
I did another review of the driver and in general it looks pretty good.
The use of Apache license, PDS file format and the missing firmware
directory are the biggest issues I saw.
v7:
  - Update location of mmc-pwrseq-simple.txt (Rob)

v6:
  - Rebase on last staging-next (roughtly somewhere after the 5.15
    merge window). So, this series include the patches from:
      https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210913130203.1903622-1-Jerome.Pouiller@silabs.com/ (local)
BTW, it would be nice to know what commit id are you using from
staging-next, I prefer to also look at the full tree while I'm reviewing
the patches.
