Unfortunately we can't just backport the FW version bump. There are
actual API changes that need to be supported, so that would require an
unfeasible amount of changes for a stable tree.

We have two options:

1. Try to take a fix to the -59.ucode firmware (I'll take this
internally)

2. Prevent the driver from loading the PNVM file when older firmwares
are used (I'll check if there is a proper way to do this without
relying on the actual version number).

I'll take this forward.
