As Sedat has already pointed out the 1.9.4 firmware binary is hosted
on the wiki-site [Thankfully, Pavel Roskin uploaded it there a while
ago. Who would have tought that it was a good idea... now we know it
sort of is.]

I'll restore the git tree once kernel.org is back in place. Until then
I guess we can stick to email, the source is just around 140 kb packed.

I think the current head is:
d1dbdf395b7ee5330b22008ba7c2cc704e157229 "config: import latest kconfig"

1.9.4 has:
a1d719850538748c7087876a8bce0e3597ca461f "carl9170 firmware: update version to 1.9.4"
