It's a good idea. I didn't know that some WiFi adapters
compatible with rt2500usb had an integrated firmware.

Like for Ethernet, we should at least re-validate that it builds and
boots with such changes.

This is because since the Ethernet changes were merged the kernel size
and RAM consumption changed.

Ideally we should probably open a TODO bug as well to do
some small research to answer questions like that or document that in
the wiki:
- Does the vendor/samsung/<device> repositories have a size limit for
  the kernel? If so does it cover all the stock/distros partitioning
  schemes of the devices that Replicant is supposed to support.
- How much RAM do we loose for each =y driver that is not used, after
  boot? Does it discards some sections?
