There are various embedded boards where a Ralink WiFi chip is soldered directly
onto the PCB and that does not have a separate EEPROM. The EEPROM data is stored
in the main flash of the board. The '||' allows to load the EEPROM data via
firmware API for such PCI devices as well.

However, the condition can be simplified. The REQUIRE_EEPROM_FILE bit is always
set for SoC devices, so the 'rt2x00_is_soc(rt2x00dev) ||' part is superfluous.

Given the fact that the patch must be reworked, this part will go away anyway
probably.
