You gotta get that done:
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches#new_driver
"have firmware images submitted for linux-firmware with an acceptable
license allowing redistribution"
We can't have a driver requesting a mrvl/sd8777_uapsta.bin firmware that
isn't available for anyone [1].
Until that's done, NAK.
[1] I think you might be referring to this:
https://github.com/xcover3/android_vendor_samsung_xcover3lte/commit/6e324b43b32dc607327d89148dd5d83a14429ee6
But I don't see any license info, so I don't think that's going to be
appropriate for linux-firmware.
