Sergey Matyukevich 616f5701f4 qtnfmac: assign each wiphy to its own virtual platform device
Quantenna Pearl device exposes multiple (up to 3) radio interfaces under
single PCIe function. So far all the wiphy devices were attached to the
same pcie device. As a result, all different wireless network devices
were reported under the same sysfs directory for pcie device, e.g.:

$ ls  /sys/class/net/wlan0/device/net/
  wlan0 wlan1

It turns out that such behavior may confuse various users of wireless
subsystem. For instance, it turned out to be the case for:
- Linux init systems, e.g. for renaming based on parent device
- OpenWRT configuration scripts

Suggested solution is to add an intermediate virtual platform device
for each radio interface.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
