Note that if the firmware download fails the card won't work because we no longer  allocate a fid. However even if we were to allocate a fid the driver flags would be inconsistent with the firmware capabilities, and the driver would just encounter a bunch of errors.

We should probably think about how we can fall back to the inbuilt firmware after a failed firmware download - but this can be done separately.


Regards,

Dave.
