You're right, I forgot.

Noted, I'll drop the code and I'll create a temporary firmware with the
needed header. However, it would be convenient to see newer firmwares
for both VCE and UVD (cheers Trevor) coming from an official source
(AMD). Let's remove the old firmware loading patch and propose a glued
firmware.

This work doesn't activate any VCE functionality. On the other hand, it
shouldn't break anything either. It needs the next series of patches.
While the firmware loading and initialization seem to go through
correctly, I'm encountering hangs at boot. That's where I'll need some help.

I'll post the next series in the next few days as a RFC so others can
help me go through. I just need to split the code in a few patches.

Cheers,
Alex
