Bug#535922: firmware-nonfree: Patch to include advansys firmware



Hi,

Attached is a patch for this request.

The advansys driver appears to be BSD-licensed in version 3.3K, now GPLv2 in
version 3.4.  The firmware images in the linux-firmware tree state BSD
licensing (according to WHENCE [1]), I have used the license extract from
advansys.c v3.3K accordingly.

Geoff
