Apart from a firmware binary the chip needs a config file used by the
FW. Add the config files to modinfo so that they can be read by
userspace.

Changes in v2:
In comparison to first version [0] we use wildcards to enumerate the
firmware configuration files. Wildcard support was added to dracut
recently [1].

This doesn't cover all hardware models. Note that the upstream
linux-firmware has files only for a few hardware models.

I suppose that the correct mask should be "brcm/brcmfmac*-sdio.*.txt".


We can use the two "brcm/brcmfmac*-sdio.*.txt" and "brcm/brcmfmac*-pcie.*.txt" to also include firmware files for chips that don't have any config file in linux-firmware. I'm indifferent to that, although I think we should make incentivize to upstream firmware config files to linux-firmware.

Matthias
