Support for the CYW55572 can be easily added into the existing brcmfmac
driver, I already posted a patch over a year ago [1], but it was blocked
by an off-list email.
Frankly, I do not see any good reason why the brcmfmac driver shouldn't
be extended when it is clearly easily doable. Adding new fork of the
brcmfmac would only increase maintenance burden and prevent bugfixes
from reaching the brcmfmac.
