I had asked Ralink guys in private mail a while ago and they
said the files on ralinktech.com.tw are older.  The current
versions are those posted for linux-firmware.
(Actually I complained because each of the driver packages
contains a different version of the firmware, it's not very
clear which one is the latest one on the Ralink download site.)

Also, if you look at rt2800_check_firmware(), it seems some of
the firmware files are actually multiple different firmware
images packaged in one file.  I think this makes versioning
even more confusing.
