QCA6174 hw2.1?

[Moritz Morawietz]

I used  4.0.0-2. Also i had one kernel build where it worked, but,
because I didn't knew that you have to install nvidia drivers again, I
deletet it. I am not sure how i did it, so I'm currently trying again.
Maybe I need to understand the patching mechanisms, guess that would
help :D I did something with git…

Thank you a lot for your help so far!
