Public bug reported:

== Impact ==
The WIFI LED of Marvell 88W8897 is not enabled by default (there's no code for 
controlling LED in mwifiex). It is requested to be ON and OFF when the radio is 
on and off accordingly.

== Fix ==
The LEDs are connected to GPIO pins on the Marvell WiFi/Bluetooth combo module, 
thus they can only be controlled via firmware.

== Test Case ==
# ifconfig wlan0 [on|off]
and see if the LEDs work properly.

== Risk of Regression ==
PCI sub IDs of the host bridge are used to determine if we're really running on 
an Edge Gateway, and we already have these patches in Xenial kernels quite a 
while. Risk should be reasonably low.
