I saw this pop up in the dts pull request today, and this needs
some more clarification I think: Why does the dts have to know
about which format the files are in? I would expect that to be
handled by the driver internally.

>From what I can tell, either the two files are compatible,
and the driver can just try both names by manipulating that
string, or the two are incompatible and changing the firmware
name would also mean that the dts node and driver would
have to be aware of the difference.
