Is this what you were looking for?

config EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR
string "Firmware blobs root directory"
depends on EXTRA_FIRMWARE != ""
default "firmware"
help
This option controls the directory in which the kernel build system
looks for the firmware files listed in the EXTRA_FIRMWARE option.
The default is firmware/ in the kernel source tree, but by changing
this option you can point it elsewhere, such as /lib/firmware/ or
some other directory containing the firmware files.
