For what it's worth, here's the output of dmesg | grep firmware on my
Gentoo box with a PVR-500:
[    7.624611] ivtv1: Loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (376836 bytes)
[    7.624649] ivtv0: Loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (376836 bytes)
[   11.550918] cx25840 10-0044: loaded v4l-cx25840.fw firmware (16382 bytes)
[   11.551796] cx25840 9-0044: loaded v4l-cx25840.fw firmware (16382 bytes)

And the results of md5sum v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw v4l-cx25840.fw
9b39b3d3bba1ce2da40f82ef0c50ef48  v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw
dadb79e9904fc8af96e8111d9cb59320  v4l-cx25840.fw
