For the past several years, the Qualcomm community has been shifting 
from the pack of .mdt+.bNN files to a single .mbn file as a main 
firmware file format. It reduces the back-and-forth between the kernel 
and userspace and also simplifies handling of these files.

In-kernel mdt loader provides backwards compatibility, detecting the 
file type and using .mbn instead of .mdt one, retaining the name (or 
using symlink).

Do you have any plans to also shift from .mdt to .mbn?
