I think we should only add the firmware files we found on devices
running OpenWrt, each firmware is 216 to 580 KBytes.

You could do it similar to the iwlwifi firmware and only select the
firmware files by default which are found in routers and if some special
firmware could be needed from some target only select it by default for
that target.
