Bug Description
This firmware is already in the linux-firmware of upstream and jammy
[Impact]
We have a UC20 project to enable the qca9377 sdio wifi on a imx6ull
board, without this firmware the ath10k-sdio wifi driver will fail to
initialize and the wifi can't work.
[Fix]
Backport 1 patch from upstream linux-firmware.
[Test]
Install the patched linux-firmware and boot the kernel on that board,
the ath10k-sdio.ko could find and load the firmware successfully and
the wifi function worked well.
[Where problems could occur]
The patch is from upstream and Jammy already has this patch, this patch
just adds new files to existing firmware, the regression possibility is
very low
