There are totally 3 firmware images required by the iwmc3200wifi driver:
one used for calibration, one upper mac (UMAC) and a lower mac (LMAC).
This iwmc3200 is a multicomm device, WiFi is only one of its functions.
Finally we have to add the "-sdio" suffix to distinguish with other form
factors (e.g. USB, mini PCIe, etc).

Thanks,
