[Fix] Upstream linux-firmware commit cfc997c6 ("intel: vsc: Add firmware for Visual Sensing Controller"). In order to keep backward compatibility for Jammy oem/hwe kernels, an additional patch adds symlinks for each moved binary. [Test Case] The binaries are bit-to-bit identical, except for the destination path installed. With extra symlinks created, all the IPU6 platforms should keep working as usual. [Where problems could occur] No problem is expected. [Other Info] We're switching to upstreamed binaries in Jammy and Noble, because they're likely to receive furhter updates for both linux-firmware and vsc drivers. ========== original bug report ========== In upstream commit https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char- misc.git/commit/?h=char-misc- next&id=5370a431ef915b52697d25a5a32cbaf9a4cbef95 for char-misc-next targeting v6.8, the VSC firmware paths have been changed to intel/vsc instead of the original vsc/soc_a1_prod that has been used for all existing Intel IPU6 camera platforms.
