  Log:
  firmware(9) is a subsystem to load binary data into the kernel via a
  specially crafted module.  There are several handrolled sollutions to this
  problem in the tree already which will be replaced with this.  They include
  iwi(4), ipw(4), ispfw(4) and digi(4).
  
  No objection from:      arch
  MFC after:              2 weeks
  X-MFC after:            some drivers have been converted
