The 88w8897 was a legacy Marvell chipset, while the newer chipsets we are t=
rying to add here are branded under "NXP".
Most of the newer chipset download FW using V3 protocol and few of them use=
 V1 protocol, which is still different from the V1 protocol seen for 8897 c=
hip.

Initially we tried to add support for NXP chipsets in hci line-discipline, =
but Marcel Holtmann advised us to implement this standalone driver based on=
 serdev.

Thanks,
Neeraj
