|     intelwimax: Drop Intel WiMax package
|
|     From upstream's 660d61bdf9691ddefbb3e2b3dd3fc2606ecf6779:
|
|         Drop Intel WiMax firmware
|
|         The WiMax wireless wan driver stack was dropped from upstream
|         in 2021 without any people with HW and most global WiMax
|         netowrks already shut down or being actively shutdown.
|         The last stable firmware to support WiMax was 5.10 so time to
|         drop the firmware.
