[PATCH 3.16 01/10] Revert "brcmfmac: assure SSID length from firmware is limited"

[Ben Hutchings]

3.16.67-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This reverts commit 9657f3abd17772d3290a3545dfb4811d945e84e1, which
was similar to commit 1b5e2423164b3670e8bc9174e4762d297990deff
upstream.  The function fixed upstream doesn't exist in 3.16 and the
similar bug that does exist here needs a different fix.
