The new fw (8.5.0.0.28) is not backward compatible with older drivers. Use a new fw name (along with bumping the min fw version), and add some code to fail any boot attempt during the fw api alignment patches (as the driver is not functional in these transitional patches). This code will be removed after the api alignment will be done.
