    ihex: Add support for long records to ihex2fw.c · 59890f74

    Some drivers could do with using records like Intel HEX, but with each
    record being larger than 256 bytes. This has been possible in the binary
    representation (struct ihex_binrec) in the kernel since the beginning --
    at least of the the current version of history. But we haven't been able
    to represent that in the .HEX files which get converted to .fw files.
    
    This adds a '-w' option to ihex2fw to make it interpret the first _two_
    bytes of each line as the record length, instead of only one byte. And
    adds makefile rules for %.H16->%.fw which use that.
