Add Bluetooth support for Qualcomm WCN6856

[Kai-Heng Feng]

[Impact]
WCN6856 Bluetooth doesn't work.

[Fix]
Backport firmware blobs and driver support to make it work by loading
correct firmwares.

[Test]
Bluetooth scanning and pairing work, and continue to do so after several
suspend/resume cycles.

[Where problems could occur]
The upstream version of btusb_generate_qca_nvm_name() adds several
missing le*_to_cpu() macros, so if this device was ever used on a Big
Endian system, this is a behavioral change.

[Ubuntu Kernel Bot (ubuntu-kernel-bot)]

This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-oem-5.14/5.14.0-1015.15 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-focal' to 'verification-done-focal'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-focal' to 'verification-failed-focal'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Hello Kai-Heng, or anyone else affected,

Accepted linux-firmware into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/1.187.25 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.
