This smells like a typical problem of upstream maintainers putting new 
firmware into firmware/ instead of submitting the firmware to the 
linux-firmware project and the author of the driver then require a new 
firmware and the firmware is "missing/misplaced" ..

Hopefully this problem will be discussed and resolved at the kernels 
summit which is in couple of days.

To solve this is you need to find the last kernel that this worked with 
then file a bug against the kernel and tell the guys which kernel it 
worked with and which kernel it stopped working with and they will take 
it from there and fix it.

Start with the latest kernel .34 which you can find here

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=193772

If it does not work with the latest or any of  .34 I suggest you try the 
last .33 which you can find here.

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=190700

And if that one does not work you need to try all the .33 kernels until 
you hit the one that worked for you.
