> Where did the new firmware come from?

It is the firmware as originally appeared in in Tapio's original out
of tree driver in 2002-ish, was committed to the tree in 2.6.12, and
remained unchanged until it was removed in the firmware cleanup in
2.6.27.  The firmware header at that time held the bitstream, loader
and SPIDF/MIDI firmware images all in one header file.  In 2.6.27,
they were all split back out into their original ihex sources but this
operation seems to have been botched.  I wrote a quick script to
redump the data from the original header back into ihex format as I
couldn't locate the original ihex files Tapio apparently originally
worked from (the comments and partial original ihex inclusion in
Tapio's header are admittedly confusing and apparently led the
cleaner-upper astray).
