[Buildroot] [PATCH] Taking over Larry Finger's repositories

[Buildroot] [PATCH] Taking over Larry Finger's repositories

[Giulio Benetti]

I hope to do something nice by taking over Larry Finger's repositories
I've contributed through last years. This is a series of 3 packages
that move URL to my company Github as done for this pending patch:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/patch/20250618145857.1206836-1-giulio.benetti@benettiengi

Best regards
Giulio Benetti

[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/rtl8723bu: fix build failure with Linux 6.15

[Giulio Benetti]

Benetti Engineering just took over Larry Finger(lwfinger)'s repository
rtl8723bu since Larry unfortunately passed away[0](RIP) and there are
pending PRs that will never be checked as stated here[1]. So basically move
github user to benetti-engineering-sas and update version with latest that
fixes build failure with Linux version 6.15. And of course let's update
package's URL due to the moving.

[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/rtl8723ds: fix build failure with Linux 6.15

[Giulio Benetti]

Benetti Engineering just took over Larry Finger(lwfinger)'s repository [0]
rtl8723ds since Larry unfortunately passed away[1](RIP) and there are
pending PRs that will never be checked as stated here. So basically move
github user to benetti-engineering-sas and update version with latest that
fixes build failure with Linux version 6.15. And let's drop local patches
that are now upstreamed as well. And of course let's update package's
URL due to the moving.
