When linux-firmware was bumped to 6d3bc8886 in commit 3ff5896ff, a hash
file was added but the hash was wrong. This wasn't noticed before since
hashes are not checked for git downloads.

Currently buildroot will create a broken system for any kernel version
not between 3.18 and 4.1, as the bnx2x firmware it includes is only
valid for that version of the upstream driver.
This change modifies the build so that all versions are included as there was a
strong preference for not adding options for each version, nor only supporting
the latest kernel:

It is up to the user to ensure they remove the versions they don't want.
Note that this increases the size of the root file system by about 8MB.

This avoids a lot of unnecessary complication with lots of revison
knobs for different chipsets and it's consequence when bumping
linux-firmware as well.
Users can purge unwanted versions from a post processing script if
target space is too constrained.

With SD, USB and PCI-E variants available for several chips,
bus-prefixed entries get mis-aligned badly.
Rearrange them to use bus-suffixes instead.
Config options and the files themselves remain bus-prefixed.
