Autodetecting the chip type does not work well.
Stop attempting to do it and require a platform op
that tells us what the chip is.

(This all assumes this driver is currently actually being used)

Doesn't this change break any current users of wcn36xx?  Couldn't you
just take the old wcn36xx_detect_chip_version and either add the check
for get_chip_type to the beginning and make it use it and return, or
fall back to the old 'broken' way?

Another alternative would be to update wcn36xx_detect_chip_version to
behave like you expect get_chip_type to, and make it the default and let
platforms override it.
