How will the firmware attribute in the .module_info section be used?
For any one model of TV capture device, the cx25840 only needs one of
the above firmware files. The others need not exist.
I would not want anything in user or kernel space to refuse to load the
module just because all 3 firmware files are not present.
Regards,
Andy
The MODULE_FIRMWARE macro is purely informational. Declaring the
firmware files that the driver _might_ use helps me pare down the
external firmware package to just those files that I know it must have.
This patch will have no runtime impact.
Note that there are plenty of uses of the MODULE_FIRMWARE macro within
the kernel.
