For the same core number, is it necessary to update

does the API/addressing into the microcode stay
the same across microcode updates?
ie: Were any updates to the driver needed to support
the span from say 478.104 to 784.2 of the microcode
for any of the cores already present in 478.104?
I'm not seeing anything obvious to that effect in the
short summaries here:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/log/drivers/net/wireless/b43
Throughout the life of the b43 driver, there have been changes in the microcode
that required changes in the driver; however all of them predate version
478.104. With that said, I have not tested anything newer than 666.x. Where did
you get version 784.2?
