radeon firmware

[Borislav Petkov]

Hey Alex,

I keep getting people's configs with

CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="... radeon/RV710_uvd.bin radeon/RV730_smc.bin..."

but I can't find those blobs in the k.org fw repo:

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

This here http://www.x.org/wiki/radeonBuildHowTo/ says that
http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/ contains them, and,
AFAICT, the license is the same. So what's the story, are those going
into the firmware-linux repo anytime soon?

Thanks.

The UVD ucode is already there.  I send Ben the patches for the smc
ucode week or so ago, but I guess they haven't been applied yet.

I've just pushed them, so they should be available there in a few
minutes.
