Hey Manish,

That commit d526e044 is in the upstream linux-firmware 20210919 release. The current el9 linux-firmware package linux-firmware-20220209-125.el9 contains content from upstream 20220209 release so it should include your commit.

Are you able to confirm if it is there or not?

Hi Patrick,

We are planning for new FW upstream, I will detail the commit once it's accepted in linux-firmware.git.
That firmware has some imp storage FW fixes which we need in rhel9.1

Thanks,
Manish

Hi Patrick,

The FW update was added upstream today only with below commit in linux-firmware.git
