Subject: [QUESTION] Enable the wireless module on Pinebook Pro

Hi,

According to the preloaded system Manjaro ARM on Pinebook Pro [1], I
found the firmware files in ap6256-firmware package [2] enable the
wireless module, including WiFi and Bluetooth.
If we want to redistribute the firmware files to linux-firmware
repository or other distros, which kind of license should follow?
