branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/2025.05.x
Unfortunately Larry Finger passed away in June 2024 [1], and
lwfinger.com is now squatted, and no longer has the same content as
before, causing a breakage when trying to download the 5.100.138
version of b43-firmware.
Since the exact same file is available from the OpenWrt mirror, and we
already use this mirror for the other b43-firmware version, let's use
the OpenWrt mirror for both.
