Fixes here is .. well, right, but wrong - as if you "fix" that in previous kernel
releases, you will create regressions :-)

For all of the currently supported boards, I was planning to temporarily leave the
firmware-name properties in place for one kernel version (v6.19) and remove it from
all of them at once, for kernel v6.20.

I'd be okay if you send a commit or a series removing firmware-name from all of
them, without any Fixes tag and without any "fix" word (so that we avoid autosel
backports at all costs!), but keep in mind that I'd pick that in the next merge
window, and not right now.

Thanks!
Angelo
