As always there is a catch when it comes to firmware. In order to submit
firmware to linux-firmware we need to get approval to release it under
the terms stated in LICENCE.broadcom_bcm43xx as present in the
linux-firmware repository. That SLA allows redistribution of the
firmware which is the type of license that linux distros need for their
linux releases. I will make inventory of the firmware files that are
currently missing and try to get approval (again).
