The `firmware` field of the `module!` only accepts literal strings, which is due to the fact that it is implemented as a proc macro. Some drivers require a lot of firmware files (such as nova-core) and hence benefit from more flexibility composing firmware path strings. The `firmware::ModInfoBuilder` is a helper component to flexibly compose firmware path strings for the .modinfo section in const context. It is meant to be used in combination with `kernel::module_firmware!`.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
