The 'firmware-name' property was introduced to allow end-users and
integrators to select use-case-specific firmware for the WCN6855.
But for M.2 WLAN chips, there is no suitable DTS node to specify
the 'firmware-name' property. In addition, assigning firmware for
the M.2 PCIe interface causes chips that do not use use-case-specific
firmware to fail. Therefore, abandoning the approach of specifying
firmware in DTS. As an alternative, propose a static lookup table
mapping device compatible to firmware names.
