Hi Dan,

I don't have a real problem with adding this v7 stuff, but it looks 
different from what I have here which has additional fields. For what 
new firmwares and more importantly what devices do you need this. I only 
know it is used for 43684, which we do not support with brcmfmac (yet).

Regards,
Arend
