update on t430 wifi

[Edoardo Mantovani]

Hello,
it seems that both models are iwldvm based, not the newer iwlmvm.
As far as I know, iwldvm products have some firmware problems, I don't know
if sculpt has both iwldvm and iwlmvm drivers installed or not, but may be
interesting to work on other Wlan drivers/firmwares.
In those days I'll try to see if is possible for me to work on other
networking components, I haven't touched much genode in the last 2 years.
Regards
