The firmware-name property was originally introduced to allow end-users
and integrators to select use-case-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. Therefore, the firmware-name property is now
deprecated.
