Any update on the wl18xx-conf.bin issue? This file is still in
linux-firmware repo.

I have following problem. My Jorjin chip requires wl18xx-conf.bin
compiled from special *.ini file.
https://github.com/TI-OpenLink/18xx-ti-utils/tree/master/wlconf
doesn't seem to support v4 firmware as it creates 1221 bytes conf
file. Where can I get proper wlconf and companion files
(dictionary.txt, struct.bin etc.)?
