The function brcmf_fw_nvram_strip() is no longer called so
it does not need to be exposed.

c1416e77a6 brcmfmac: introduce asynchronous firmware loading
The driver needs firmware to be loaded to the device, which
is done through the firmware class API. The synchronous call
request_firmware() need root filesystem to be mounted and/or
user-mode helper. These may not be avaliable on the moment
it is called. Instead use request_firmware_nowait().
