I'd really like to deprecate in favor of a standard property name. We've
somewhat agreed on 'firmware-name' though there is no common binding doc
yet. But given this is in use:

This has been introduced in 4.8-rc1, so it hasn't been used in any
stable version yet, and we don't have any users in tree so far.

If you want to something else, it feels like now is the time to change
it.

Ack, I can still change it to firmware-name if you want (Maxime has not yet
merged any dts changes using the touchscreen-fw-name). We should probably
also decide if the silead/ prefix we're using (so the firmware files are
/lib/firmware/silead/foo.fw under Linux) goes into the firmware-name
property as my current wip code is doing, or if we put the "silead/"
part in the driver and only put the part after it in the property.

I've a feeling that just putting only the base filename (so no "silead/"
prefix) in the property is best.

Regards,

Hans
