Hi Ferruh,

This patch set adds mainly the support of new firmwares for the cards 
that are already supported.
But you are right, there is also one new card which would need to add 
new pci device id. We have to check if we want to add the card in this 
patch set and I will update v2 accordingly.

5 is for future use and experimental firmwares. Would it make sense to 
write this note in the comments but not in the documentation to avoid 
confusion or should it be mentioned in the documentation too?

Thanks,
