And this firmware file is also going to work on SC7180, correct?

Vikash, Dikshita, could you please comment, what is going on here?

We have added venus_s6.mbn, then dropped it, saying that a normal
venus.mbn can be used on QCS615. Then Renjiang added venus_s2.mbn
(why?). Mario merged it despite my NAK, but that's a separate topic.
Now we are dropping it again.

The firmware is the ABI between userspace and the kernel. We can't
randomly add and remove files here.

Which file names are / were in use by the upstream kernel? I tried hard,
but I couldn't find any mention of venus_s2.mbn in any of the patches
on the linux-arm-msm mailing list.
