The firmware must be loaded one byte at a time via the 0xf6 register.
I don't think so. Currently it downloads firmware in 22 byte chunks and
it seems to work, at least for me, both mn88472 and mn88473.

Not nice.
1) You mask status and you could not know if error code is valid after
mask few thousand error codes.
2) Even worse, it is loop that runs thousand of times. Guess how much
I/O errors there could happen. There is many times situation when first
error occur then all the rest commands are failing too. And many cases
failing I2C command could be failed USB message, which could take few
seconds. Very typical USB timeout is 2 secs, this means 2k firmware,
2*2000=4000 sec => it blocks that routine over *one* hour.
ret = regmap_write(dev->regmap[0], 0xf5, 0x00);
