The single board system BeagleV-Ahead uses a Ampak AP6203BM chip for wifi
and bluetooth. Wifi is already enabled for this board. The bluetooth
module of the chip connects by UART and PCM to the TH1520 SOC. The PCM
interface is currently not used because of missing I2S drivers for the
SOC.

This patch set enables bluetooth.

The bluetooth module of the Ampak AP6203BM is identified by the btbcm
driver as BCM4362A2.

The firmware of the bluetooth module on the BeagleV-Ahead reports a
capability of reading LE tx power. However reading fails. To get
bluetooth working it is necessary to disable reading of LE tx power on
the BeagleV-Ahead board. The disable is implemented in a similar way as
for several Apple boards but uses the board compatible identification
from the DTB as there is no DMI.

On the BeagleV-Ahead the bluetooth module of the Ampak AP6203BM is
identified by the btbcm driver as BCM4362A2. The module is connected by
UART4, several gpio pins and an I2S interface. The I2S is currently not
used as there is no driver.
