The QCA6390 board I have, model 8291M-PR comes with an ELF board
file.  To get this to at least somewhat work, I renamed bdwlan.e04
to 'board.bin' and then added this patch to check for .ELF as
starting bytes of the board file.  If that is found, use type
ELF.  After this the driver loads.

Thanks, looks good. Expect that the ELF magic check can be simplified to:

strncmp(edata, ELFMAG, SELFMAG)

But I can send v2, I'll soon send some more QCA6390 patches and I'll
include this to the set.
