[ Upstream commit d65ab7c0e0b92056754185d3f6925d7318730e94 ]

It's been a while that the firmware uses LONG_GROUP by default
and not LEGACY_GROUP.
Until now the firmware wrongly advertise the WOWLAN_GET_STATUS
command's version with LEGACY_GROUP, but it is now being fixed.

"Being fixed" here is the key - this will affect only firmware versions
that the older drivers in stable won't load. No need to backport this.

I'll drop it, thanks!
