From: Max Chou <[email protected]>
In the commit of linux-firmware project, rtl8852cu_fw.bin is updated as
FW v2 format[1]. Consider the case that if driver did not be updated for
FW v2 supported[2], it can not use FW v2.
By Canonical's suggestion, older driver should be able to load FW v1,
so rtl8852cu_fw.bin will be revert to the previous commit as FW v1 and
add rtl8852cu_fw_v2.bin as FW v2. This item will be started on
linux-firmware project.
In this commit, the driver prefers to load FW v2 if available. Fallback to
FW v1 otherwise.
To do on linux-firmware project.
rtl_bt/rtl8852cu_fw.bin: FW v1 (stay at ver. 0xD7B8_FABF)
rtl_bt/rtl8852cu_fw_v2.bin: FW v2 (to be maintained)

By the way, what will you do to linux-firmware commit 53e48f93f
("rtl_bt: Add firmware and config files for RTL8851B")? It is also a
V2 firmware. If it's not subjected to the rename here, there will be
some V2 firmware blobs with V1 names, which may add some more troubles
in the future.

Hi! You-Sheng,
The first commit for the FW file of RTL8851B is FW v2 format, so I believe it's no worry about that.
BRs,

Actually, we thought this note is enough. If users update linux-firmware,
backport will be work.
However, the commit avoid the firmware guideline.
"At the same time updated firmware files must not cause any regressions for
users of older kernel releases."
We will revert the commit and send a new commit for rtl8852cu_fw_v2.bin

We will revert '55e7448533e7 ("rtl_bt: Update RTL8852C BT USB firmware
to 0x040D_7225")' and add a new commit for rtl8852cu_fw_v2.bin.

Dear All,
Please check my comment inline. Thanks.
P.S. Fix the typo for the previous one.

Actually, we thought this note is enough. If users update linux-firmware, backport will be work.
However, the commit violate the firmware guideline.
"At the same time updated firmware files must not cause any regressions for users of older kernel releases."
We will revert the commit and send a new commit for rtl8852cu_fw_v2.bin

We will revert '55e7448533e7 ("rtl_bt: Update RTL8852C BT USB firmware to 0x040D_7225")'
and add a new commit for rtl8852cu_fw_v2.bin.

Yeah, no big deal, error are made and dealt with, and you are working on
that. Thx for that. It's just that the episode got got me thinking:
It's the second time such error is made within a a few months, hence I
wonder if we on the side of the Linux kernel and/or Linux-firmware
should change something to ideally prevent this from happening.
