> +config USB_DABUSB_FIRMWARE

Sorry if I missed a discussion on it in the intial firmware threads, but
what is the point of all these FOO_FIRMWARE options?  I think we should
include all firmware that we have a driver for if people want firmware
built-in and non if not.

That is instead of all these FOO_FIRMWARE options just have one
user-visible BUILTIN_FIRMWARE option.  Also makes it much less likely
for mingo to accidentally build a kernel image that doesn't actually boot :)
