[PATCH ath-current 2/2] dt-bindings: net: wireless: ath11k-pci: deprecate 'firmware-name' property

From: Miaoqing Pan

Date: Thu Dec 04 2025 - 02:11:21 EST


The firmware-name property was introduced to allow end-users and
integrators to select usecase specific firmware for the WCN6855.
However, specifying firmware for an M.2 WLAN module in the Device
Tree is not appropriate. Instead, this functionality will be handled
within the ath11k driver.
