I also don't believe this link is a good reference here...

Regarding the patch, I liked the approach in general.

The patch is really neat, but I believe we will need to split it:

1. Add the new DMC_PATH and DMC_LEGACY_PATH only with the introduction
of the mtl_dmc.bin

2. And the fallback function, add only if/when we get a real fallback.

Oh, and I just realized that when doing the new _dmc.bin path we also
need to make sure that we read the fw_version from the header and
print as a drm_info msg somewhere.
