Sofar we have been unable to get permission from the vendors to put the firmware for touchscreens listed in touchscreen_dmi in linux-firmware. Some of the tablets with such a touchscreen have a touchscreen driver, and thus a copy of the firmware, as part of their EFI code. This commit adds the necessary info for the new EFI embedded-firmware code to extract these firmwares, making the touchscreen work OOTB without the user needing to manually add the firmware.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
