Could you add yourself to the DEVELOPERS file for this package?

The loop is not needed, since you have a single firmware file, so this
can be simplified as:

	$(INSTALL) -D -m 0644 $(@D)/rtl8723b_fw.bin $(TARGET_DIR)/lib/firmware/rtlwifi/rtl8723b_fw.bin

I know the rtl8723bs package that you probably used as an example does
this, but in fact there is no need to use a post install target hook
here. You can just do:

define RTL8723BU_INSTALL_TARGET_CMDS
	$(INSTALL) -D ...
endef

Could you fix those minor details, and submit an updated version?

Thanks!

Thomas
