Excellent.

Ahh.

Take a look at your board, on the main large PCIe IC, its probably
marked as either a REV2 or a REV3, or a -02 or -03, what do you have?

I suspect you have a rev-02 chip. Not many of them go out into
production. (A few thousand, compared to significantly more -03
chips).

Generally, for a long time, I was recommending that everyone run
NXP7164-2010-03-10.1.fw, this is actually the latest firmware. I've
been told it isn't reliable on the REV2 hardware though.

I'll go back to the windows driver and check how they're making the
firmware load decision. I can bring this logic into the Linux driver
and we can load the most appropriate f/w.

If the stock -inkernel driver is wrong for the -02 then we should fix
that. It should be fine for the -03 though.

Noted.
