So I doubt they're loaded by the firmware loader (they are random data
files, a compression test corpus) but maybe they are being used in a
test inside the kernel and the firmware directory is hack to find
them?

I'm CCing some people who have touched the qat16 recipe lately (as it
seems to do similar things).

Rahul or Anuj: The issue is that canterbury-corpus fails to package if
$base_libdir != "/lib/".  Do you know whether the canterbury-corpus
recipe is actually used by something (I'm asking since qat16 seems to
install practically the same data itself)? If it is used, should the
files be installed into /lib/ ?
