So I am thinking how moving to resource table > will help solve this problem? The point is that our default FW is doing things incorrectly. We want to push the existing FW to 1. Request resources via resource table. 2. Fix their memory requirements (recent offline discussion proved that FW is requesting more than it needs) 3. FW should adapt to Linux not Linux adapt to FW If not, then then we should try to move to Zephyr firmware or other/ better options.
