I find that pretty > redundant and would like to avoid that if possible. firmwareName is easy for people to understand - it's the name the kernel asks for and the filename of the blob. seLinuxPolicyName is, I think, a lot more tricky since a lot of people don't use SELinux, and most that do don't understand it (most people that use it aren't even really aware of it). If you can use the firmwareName as the SELinux/LSM key, I would suggest doing so - even if you dress it up as a path (/lib/firmware/<firmwareName>).
