This should not be confused with CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL, this is for drivers
which enables firmware to be built as part of the kernel build process. This
option, CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL, will build all firmware for all drivers
enabled which ship its firmware inside the Linux kernel source tree.
