Issue
The imx8mm-jaguar-sentai machine configuration includes Intel WiFi firmware (iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0-59.ucode) in firmware-imx_%.bbappend, but this appears to be unnecessary.
Current Situation
- sentai WiFi chipset: NXP IW612 (
nxpiw612-sdio feature flag)
- Intel WiFi firmware: For Intel AX210 chips (
ax210 feature flag)
- sentai feature flags: Does NOT include
ax210, only has nxpiw612-sdio
Problem
The Intel WiFi firmware is being included in the sentai build even though:
- sentai uses NXP IW612, not Intel AX210
- sentai doesn't have the
ax210 machine feature flag
- Other machines that DO use Intel WiFi (inst, phasora) have the
ax210 feature flag
Proposed Solution
Remove the Intel WiFi firmware entries for imx8mm-jaguar-sentai from:
meta-dynamicdevices-bsp/recipes-kernel/firmware-imx/firmware-imx_%.bbappend
- Remove
SRC_URI:append:imx8mm-jaguar-sentai line
- Remove
do_install:append:imx8mm-jaguar-sentai() function
Verification Needed

This was identified while adding support for imx8mm-jaguar-dt510 which also uses NXP IW612 and correctly does NOT include Intel WiFi firmware.
