10 Drivers that use firmware from linux-firmware should follow the rules in
16 firmware ABI version changes. It is recommended that firmware files be
17 versioned with at least a major/minor version. It is suggested that
18 the firmware files in linux-firmware be named with some device
19 specific name, and just the major version. The firmware version should

22 fixes/changes. The firmware files in linux-firmware should be
23 overwritten with the newest compatible major version. Newer major
24 version firmware shall remain compatible with all kernels that load
25 that major number.
