brcmfmac shipped with Raspbian Kernel 4.14 (and therefore brcmfmac_4.14.y-nexmon from 7.45.154 folder) doesn't support newer Firmwares (Cypress releases >= 7.45.151)
I took brcmfmac_4.14.y-nexmon from nexmon 7.45.154 and I applied the patches shipped with Cypress 2018-03-21 FW release (7.45.151).
Practically I applied patches to 4.14 upstream, diffed with brcmfmac form rpi-linux-4.14 and applied the changes to brcmfmac_4.14.y-nexmon 8with some minor adjustments).
I didn't use patches from 7.45.189 Cypress release since they require kernel modifications.
