b43: Allow running without PCM firmware
This patch adds code to allow running the device without PCM firmware loaded. Without PCM firmware we don't have hardware accelerated crypto on devices with a core rev <= 10. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
