I don't know if you saw the discussion with the wil6210 firmware, but the linux-firmware maintainers prefer to have a subdirectory for firmware files. I'm planning to apply this series now, but you can send a followup patch ASAP which changes the rsi driver to use a subdirectory for the firmware files? Normally these kind of breaks in user space interface are not allowed, and instead the requirement is that the driver has a transition period from the old firmware interface to the new one. But I'm making an exception here as, to my knowledge, the upstream rsi driver is not that widely used and I want to get the driver development going on again. -- Kalle Valo
