Subject: [PATCH v4 1/4] firmware_loader: rename EXTRA_FIRMWARE and EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR
Date: Mon, 25 Oct 2021 12:50:28 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211025195031.4169165-2-mcgrof@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211025195031.4169165-1-mcgrof@kernel.org>

Now that we've tied loose ends on the built-in firmware API,
rename the kconfig symbols for it to reflect more that they are
associated to the firmware_loader and to make it easier to
understand what they are for.
