In family 8000 products the MAC address in the OTP could be in either:
- WFPM address
- PCIE address
In sdio product we should read it from the WFPM, in pcie product we
should read it from the PCIe location.
This is relevant only from otp version 0xE08 and above.
While at it, fix the bytes order in version 0xE08.

These values aren't used as the firmware values should be used,
so reading them is pointless and hides potential errors when
somebody uses these values. Leave them zero to make it clearer
that they can't be used. We can't remove the struct members as
the DVM driver does read the values from EEPROM/OTP and the
structure is shared between drivers.

The driver wasn't reading the NVM properly. While this
didn't lead to any issue until now, it seems that there
is an old version of the NVM in the wild.
In this version, the A band channels appear to be valid
but the SKU capabilities (another field of the NVM) says
that A band isn't supported at all.
With this specific version of the NVM, the driver would
think that A band is supported while the HW / firmware
don't. This leads to asserts.

These two flags are used for the same purpose, just
combine them into a no-ir flag to annotate no initiating
radiation is allowed.
Old userspace sending either flag will have it treated as
the no-ir flag. To be considerate to older userspace we
also send both the no-ir flag and the old no-ibss flags.
Newer userspace will have to be aware of older kernels.
Update all places in the tree using these flags with the
following semantic patch:
