In https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=114151, the OP reports improved 
stability and performance for an RT5370 using a newer firmware that came with 
the driver CD. The logs show this to be version 0.36, whereas the version now in 
linux-firmware is version 0.29.

I downloaded the firmware from b.k.o. It had very little effect on my no-name 
adapter with ID 148f:3070. It still gets ping losses of 10-15%.

Should this new version be submitted to linux-firmware? Its provenance seems to 
be sketchy, but submission would likely be legal.
