That doesn't seem to be a driver issue, but a badly extracted
firmware. The firmware version should be 2.7. It the version doesn't
match, that means that the firmware was not properly loaded.

The driver checks if the firmware version loaded matches the version
of the file, and prints warnings via dmesg.

Are you sure that the md5sum of the firmware is 
293dc5e915d9a0f74a368f8a2ce3cc10?
