I don't know, but this is _unacceptable_ :


"SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT (Final, Single User)

*IMPORTANT - READ BEFORE COPYING, INSTALLING OR USING.*
              ^^^^ ^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^  ^^^^^^^^^^    ^^^^^
Do not use or load this firmware image (the "Software") until you have carefully
read the following terms and conditions. By loading or using the Software, you
agree to the terms of this Agreement. If you do not wish to so agree, do not
install or use the Software.
[...]"


These firmwares are not included in linux-firmware.git for very
good reasons.
