The "linux-firmware" repo is the standard place to put it, my reading is that Qualcomm are doing this in the right way.

Indeed, Linux-firmware is the correct way to distribute. Qualcomm is currently _not_ doing this for all their Snapdragon Elite firmware (please read the linked article).

The last time I checked, audio and video firmware wasn't there.
