Yes, you're right. Actually there are 2 ways to make firmware works:

1) Disable hw crypto with module parameter
2) Remove pcm5.fw from your /lib/firmware/b43 directory

When I run the firmware I never include pcm5.fw file. The only
initvals really necessary are b0g0bsinitvals.fw and b0g0bsinitvals.fw.

cheers
