Subject: [PATCH v3 1/4] wifi: brcmfmac: Rename Cypress 89459 to BCM4355
The commit that introduced support for this chip incorrectly claimed it
is a Cypress-specific part, while in actuality it is just a variant of
BCM4355 silicon (as evidenced by the chip ID).
The relationship between Cypress products and Broadcom products isn't
entirely clear but given what little information is available and prior
art in the driver, it seems the convention should be that originally
Broadcom parts should retain the Broadcom name.
Thus, rename the relevant constants and firmware file. Also rename the
specific 89459 PCIe ID to BCM43596, which seems to be the original
subvariant name for this PCI ID (as defined in the out-of-tree bcmdhd
driver).
v2: Since Cypress added this part and will presumably be providing
its supported firmware, we keep the CYW designation for this device.
v3: Drop the RAW device ID in this commit. We don't do this for the
other chips since apparently some devices with them exist in the wild,
but there is already a 4355 entry with the Broadcom subvendor and WCC
firmware vendor, so adding a generic fallback to Cypress seems
redundant (no reason why a device would have the raw device ID *and* an
explicitly programmed subvendor).
Do you really want to add changes of v2 and v3 to commit message? Or,
just want to let reviewers know that? If latter one is what you want,
move them after s-o-b with delimiter ---
Both; I thought those things were worth mentioning in the commit message
as it stands on its own, and left the version tags in so reviewers know
when they were introduced.
