I don't understand what is nonfree here ?
firmwares that aren't aimed to run on cpu (but hardware device) are allowed in
fedora as an exception despite been nonfree.
Then, As the loader is GPLv2+ it should be allowed in fedora as other firmware
loader are... (such as alsa-tools-firmware).
So this have to be splited between the loader and the firmware, (and both can
go to fedora). That been said, maybe the driver could use the kernel firmware
loading functions instead of this special loader, but that's another subject.
