SRU Justification: Impact: The rt2800 drivers expect firmware for RT307x chipsets to be found in rt2870.bin, which is not currently the case. Fix: Update rt2800 firmware to include support for RT307x. Testcase: Tested on LP #762987, including regression testing with RT2860 on maverick. The new firmware was also reported to bring performance improvments for RT2860 in testing on maverick.
