In case kernel modules needs to use a dedicated firmware, KMM operator sets those files under /var/lib/firmware path. This path is not a default search path for firmware files, so KMM needs to configure the kernel to use this path via /sys/module/firmware_class/parameters/path. for this KMM uses setFirmwareClassPath field of the KMM config. By default this field is not set, so in order to set it customer needs to manually change change the configmap and then delete KMM operator pods.
