These are available elsewhere (for example in the linux-firmware.git
repository); they have no business being added to the kernel source
tree.

We are only putting stuff in the firmware/ directory of the kernel
source when it's extracted from long-standing drivers which used to
include it directly.

We didn't intend to open the floodgates to including megabytes of new
firmware which was previously being distributed separately.

Based on original patch by Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk> and
Bastian Blank <waldi@debian.org>, with the following main changes:

Separated the mips firmware and rv2p firmware into different files
to make it easier to update them separately.

Added some code to fixup the rv2p code with run-time information
such as PAGE_SIZE.

Update version to 2.0.0.

Adds the firmware to the firmware directory in ihex format so it can be
installed when doing make firmware_install.

Also update the firmware location in the driver code so it can locate
the files in the right place.

This should conclude the move to request_firmware().

Rafael reported:

I get the following error from 'make modules_install' on my test boxes:

  HOSTCC  firmware/ihex2fw
/home/rafael/src/linux-2.6/firmware/ihex2fw.c:268: fatal error: opening dependency file firmware/.ihex2fw.d: Read-only file system
compilation terminated.
make[3]: *** [firmware/ihex2fw] Error 1
make[2]: *** [_modinst_post] Error 2
make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

where the configuration is that the kernel is compiled on a build box
with 'make O=<destdir> -j5' and then <destdir> is mounted over NFS read-only by
each test box (full path to this directory is the same on the build box and on
the test boxes).  Then, I cd into <destdir>, run 'make modules_install' and get
the error above.

The issue turns out to be that we when we install firmware pick
up the list of firmware blobs from firmware/Makefile.
And this triggers the Makefile rules to update ihex2fw.

There were two solutions for this issue:
1) Move the list of firmware blobs to a separate file
2) Avoid ihex2fw rebuild by moving it to scripts

As I seriously beleive that the list of firmware blobs should be
done in a fundamental different way solution 2) was selected.

We store the firmware in its native big-endian form now, so the loop in
ace_copy() is modified to use be32_to_cpup() when writing it out.

We can forget the BSS,SBSS sections of the firmware, since we were
clearing all the device's RAM anyway. And the text,rodata,data sections
can all be loaded as a single chunk since they're contiguous (give or
take a few dozen bytes in between).
