What were you trying to do that didn't work?
It's not possible to downgrade the package to a release up to 20250515-130:
# yum -y downgrade linux-firmware-20250515-130.git9f8e520f.el8_10 [...] Error: Transaction test error: file /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad103/gsp from install of linux-firmware-20250515-130.git9f8e520f.el8_10.noarch conflicts with file from package linux-firmware-20250626-131.gitb05fabcd.el8_10.noarch file /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad104/gsp from install of linux-firmware-20250515-130.git9f8e520f.el8_10.noarch conflicts with file from package linux-firmware-20250626-131.gitb05fabcd.el8_10.noarch file /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad106/gsp from install of linux-firmware-20250515-130.git9f8e520f.el8_10.noarch conflicts with file from package linux-firmware-20250626-131.gitb05fabcd.el8_10.noarch file /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad107/gsp from install of linux-firmware-20250515-130.git9f8e520f.el8_10.noarch conflicts with file from package linux-firmware-20250626-131.gitb05fabcd.el8_10.noarch file /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad103 from install of linux-firmware-20250515-130.git9f8e520f.el8_10.noarch conflicts with file from package linux-firmware-20250626-131.gitb05fabcd.el8_10.noarch file /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad104 from install of linux-firmware-20250515-130.git9f8e520f.el8_10.noarch conflicts with file from package linux-firmware-20250626-131.gitb05fabcd.el8_10.noarch file /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad106 from install of linux-firmware-20250515-130.git9f8e520f.el8_10.noarch conflicts with file from package linux-firmware-20250626-131.gitb05fabcd.el8_10.noarch file /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad107 from install of linux-firmware-20250515-130.git9f8e520f.el8_10.noarch conflicts with file from package linux-firmware-20250626-131.gitb05fabcd.el8_10.noarch file /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad103/gsp conflicts between attempted installs of linux-firmware-20250515-130.git9f8e520f.el8_10.noarch and linux-firmware-20250515-130.git9f8e520f.el8_10.noarch
The reason for this is a change introduced in 20250626-131 which renamed directories into symlinks and runs as a pretrans script:
# ls -ld /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad10{3,4,6,7}
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 5 Aug 5 14:39 /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad103 -> ad102
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 5 Aug 5 14:39 /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad104 -> ad102
