brcm47xx: use "firmware" partition name
Some time ago, after switching to the mainline bcm47xxpart driver following patch has been applied: commit 03cef8725d2062335ffc3de50fc037b294fd458c Author: hauke <hauke@3c298f89-4303-0410-b956-a3cf2f4a3e73> Date: Sat Apr 6 22:22:26 2013 +0000 brcm47xx: use old partition names again for kernel 3.8 This fixes sysupgrade. The partition names are used all over the Internet in various howtos. Thank you russell for spotting this problem. I propose to revert this change and make sysupgrade use "firmware" instead. This makes brcm47xx compatible with widely used ar71xx and after all "firmware" sounds like a much better name for... the firmware. This change doesn't affect "sysupgrade" usage, because it never takes a partition name as a parameter. This change only affects users using mtd tool directly. Hopefully there are not many howtos using "mtd" command. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> SVN-Revision: 38973
