Motivation for this change

Facetimehd driver wouldn't load correctly when running the latest stable kernel as per patjak/facetimehd#143

If boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackages_latest; is set I'd get this dmesg output:

[   62.729904] facetimehd: probe of 0000:02:00.0 failed with error -22

on a Macbook Pro 12,1

Things done

Bumped the https://github.com/patjak/bcwc_pcie driver to latest commit in said repo.
This enabled my facetime webcam to function again.
