Both filenames are hardcoded into the driver.

The thing is that there are a few "brcmfmac43430-sdio*txt" files on
https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/tree/master/brcm and
what works well on a Raspberry Pi (the file I mentioned before works
for me on both Zero-W and 3B) might not work on some other board with
a Broadcom 43430 chipset.
