Hi Rob,

This patch adds an optional device property "firmware-name" to allow
the
driver to load customized nvm firmware file based on this property.

and how is this a firmware-name property. Wouldn’t this be more like
nvm-file or something along these lines. This really needs to be
cleared with Rob to pick the right property name.

Hi Rob,

Are you OK to use a property name "nvm-file" or "firmware-nvm-file"?
Actually we have two firmware files, one is the patch file which is
common to all of the products, the other is the nvm file which is
customized. Using a "nvm-file" or "firmware-nvm-file" property name
would be more clear.

'firmware-name' is the standard name for specifying firmware file names.

but it is not a firmware file, it is a NVM file. What happens if in
the future they need a firmware file and a NVM file?

Regards

Marcel

We won't need to specify a rampatch firmware file in future as it's a same file for all the boards with same chip, only the NVM firmware file may have board differences. NVM file is also one of the firmware files so I think it should be OK to use "firmware-name" property to specify it.
