A separate firmware is needed for Broadcom 43430 revision 2. This
chip can be found in e.g. certain revisions of Ampak AP6212 wireless
IC. Original firmware file from IC vendor is named
'fw_bcm43436b0.bin', but brcmfmac and also btbcm drivers report chip

That is bad naming. There already is a 43436 USB device.

id 43430, so requested firmware file name is
'brcmfmac43430b0-sdio.bin' in line with other 43430 revisions.

As always there is the question about who will be publishing this particular firmware file to linux-firmware.
