The firmware is in the linux-firmware tree. You probably need to install the 
latest package for your distro called "linux firmware" or "kernel firmware". 
Otherwise

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dwmw2/linux-firmware.git

The files you need will be in linux-firmware/brcm. Copy them to /lib/firmware/brcm.
