The name of the PCIe controller node in device tree changed between kernel 4.9 and kernel 4.14. Migrate the configuration when an update from kernel 4.9 to 4.14 or back is done to the new name to make the existing wifi configuration compatible with the new names. This replaces the "pcie-controller" part with "pcie" on all nodes if the file exists in sys fs. This is not done in the uci-defualts, because they are getting executed to late in the boot process. The kernel module gets loaded before the uci-defaults scripts are executed. When the mwlwifi driver gets loaded it will trigger an event via hotplug to detect new devices and as the paths are not in the uci configuration they will be added again. When the migration is done before the script will detect that they are already there.
