Various X86 laptops with a SDIO attached brcmfmac wifi chip, store the nvram contents in a special EFI variable. This commit adds support for getting nvram directly from this EFI variable, without the user needing to manually copy it. This makes Wifi / Bluetooth work out of the box on these devices instead of requiring manual setup. This has been tested on the following models: Acer Iconia Tab8 w1-810, Acer One 10, Asus T100CHI, Asus T100HA, Asus T100TA, Asus T200TA and a Lenovo Mixx 2 8.

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.
