I do not mean to sound overly impatient, but this bug has been reported on
2015-09-04 15:00 UTC. Today it is 2016-04-14 06:15 UTC.

Also, http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/k/hawaii_k_smc.bin has
modification date 2015-12-10 05:36.

If hawaii_k_smc.bin is better than hawaii_smc.bin, then why hasn't it been
uploaded to git.kernel.org firmware tree? 

Why is
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/radeon/hawaii_smc.bin?id=6e767c2b85c62fb7325fdc00f51b90f6747c13ab
different from hawaii_k_smc.bin? 

Does, or doesn't, hawaii_smc.bin uploaded to git.kernel.org on 2016-03-31
01:15:57 GMT contain the fix for this freedesktop.org bug?

Could the problem be that hawaii_k_smc.bin for R9 390 is incompatible with R9
290? In that case the solution would be to create grenada_smc.bin.


There are too many contradictions for me to understand the situation.
