I would not personally mind that approach, but it may require extra work for the wireless team.

Couldn't you use the bbappend to just change the SRC_URI and SRCREV? Is the issue the recipe name changing from linux-firmware to wl12xx-firmware? Wireless team went with their own recipe because of the issues with tracking/maintaining the patch set from their development team. I know this may not make sense outside of TI but there is a development team in wireless making and pushing changes to mainline and then there is the integration team responsible for providing the validated code drop. I'm not saying this is a good work flow, but the integration team pushed to get a single repo of the proper sources from the development team because the patch set was un-wieldy. That's just a little context of what I know about how these recipes were created. So again my question is what is the particular pain point you want to avoid?

My biggest concern was that currently my images use 'linux-firmware-wl12xx' and now, for the same but updated functionality, I need to use 'wl12xx-firmware' instead.
