Are you sure? It should not be required and remoteproc driver should use
default name if not provided in DT.
In patch 5 see what is being done in pru_rproc_get().
It doesn't error out if firmware-name is not provided.

Same for ti,pruss-gp-mux-sel. Did you miss the patch that adds support for this
in this series?
