2009-04-04bnx2: Use request_firmware()Michael Chan
Based on original patch by Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk> and Bastian Blank <waldi@debian.org>, with the following main changes: Separated the mips firmware and rv2p firmware into different files to make it easier to update them separately. Added some code to fixup the rv2p code with run-time information such as PAGE_SIZE. Update version to 2.0.0. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
