This patch series changes DMC loading to be partially backwards-compatible by
removing version checking. Future patches in linux-firmware should start using
unversioned filenames and we will gradually adapt i915 to use them.

For platforms already supported, the change to unversioned paths will require a
fallback mechanism (alternatively load from versioned paths) to avoid
regression. Let's do that when the time comes.

This version differs from v3 in that we are postponing reorganization of macros
and implementation of the fallback mechanism to when we need it.
