For modules, you just need run 'make INSTALL_FW_PATH=/lib/firmare firmware_install'.
I should...
1. Change the default to /lib/firmware so that you don't have to set INSTALL_FW_PATH. 2. Add that to the 'make help' text. 3. Look at making 'make modules_install' installl the firmware required by the modules it's installing, so you don't even need to do _anything_ new.
