Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 0/2] airoha: Add the capability to read
 firmware binary names from dts for Airoha NPU driver

This patch is needed because NPU firmware binaries are board specific since
they depend on the MediaTek WiFi chip used on the board (e.g. MT7996 or
MT7992). This is a preliminary patch to enable MT76 NPU offloading if
the Airoha SoC is equipped with MT7996 (Eagle) WiFi chipset.

Changes in v3:
- Roll-back to approach proposed in v1 using firmware-name property
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260113-airoha-npu-firmware-name-v2-0-28cb3d230206@kernel.org

Changes in v2:
- Introduce "airoha,en7581-npu-7996" compatible string to specify the
  firmware and drop "firmware-name" property
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260112-airoha-npu-firmware-name-v1-0-d0b148b6710f@kernel.org
