This is what was done by Srini in the initial (currently committed) 
version. Unfortunately this easily results in the audio topology being 
separated from the rest of the platform-specific firmware. For example, 
for the mentioned X13s we already have a subdir under /lib/firmware/qcom 
and several firmware-name DT properties pointing to the files in that 
subdir:

$ grep firmware-name 
arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/sc8280xp-lenovo-thinkpad-x13s.dts
		firmware-name = "qcom/sc8280xp/LENOVO/21BX/qcdxkmsuc8280.mbn";
	firmware-name = "qcom/sc8280xp/LENOVO/21BX/qcadsp8280.mbn";
	firmware-name = "qcom/sc8280xp/LENOVO/21BX/qccdsp8280.mbn";

This is not unique to the X13s, other Qualcomm boards also use full paths.
