Currently vpu_d.bin and vpu_p.bin are at the root of
linux-firmware git tree, it's not appropriate so we move
them to subfolder mediatek/mt8173

Release Version: 1.1.4

This is nice as it removes some stuff from the root, but for
compatibility with older kernels that don't know about the new path
shouldn't we at least temporarily create a symbolic link between the
old location and the new one?

Dear Alex,

Do you mean to create two symbolic link?

lrwxrwxrwx  1 gtk_ruiwang gtk_ruiwang      25 Feb 26 11:52 vpu_d.bin ->
mediatek/mt8173/vpu_d.bin
lrwxrwxrwx  1 gtk_ruiwang gtk_ruiwang      25 Feb 26 11:52 vpu_p.bin ->
mediatek/mt8173/vpu_p.bin

we create them at the linux-firmware root folder.

Thanks
Best Regards

Yes, otherwise older kernels will become unable to use the firmware. I
don't know whether these are supposed to stay forever or whether we
can remove them after a while... presumably the former.

Also the WHENCE file should probably be updated to list the new files.
